NEWS STORY : MPs Shock Report Finds Boris Johnson Deliberately Lied to Parliament

STORY

A report published by the Privileges Committee’s report has found that Boris Johnson, the former Prime Minister, deliberately lied to Parliament. Johnson, who resigned from the Commons in advance of the report’s publication, would have faced a recommended 90 day suspension from the House. The report, which was far more damning than had been expected, was led by a Conservative majority.

The now disgraced former Prime Minister was found to have lied to the Privileges Committee, willingly leaked material relating to the proceedings and undermined the democratic processes of Parliament.
