Boris Johnson has admitted that the Commons was "misled by my statements" about Partygate - but insisted he did not do so "intentionally or recklessly".
The slippery ex-PM instead blamed officials for telling him Covid rules had been followed while lockdown-busting parties took place in Downing Street.
He claimed he was “working day and night to manage the Government's response to the Covid-19 pandemic” - even as photographs showed him drinking and joking with colleagues.
