Former Britain's Got Talent star Paul Potts has shared an emotional letter from a nurse about Boris Johnson and the Partygate scandal. The opera singer, who lives in Port Talbot, shared the letter written by registered nurse Andrea Needham who said she had "no words strong enough to express the anger" she felt about the prime minister after he was forced to apologise for his role in the scandal this week.
In her letter, which was published in The Guardian and later tweeted to the prime minister by Potts, Ms Needham said she was working through the pandemic as a registered nurse in a nursing home. She rejected the prime minister's excuse that staff in Number 10 had been working long hours, saying: "We were also working extremely long hours - only we were doing it swathed from head to foot in plastic, at risk of at risk of contracting a potentially fatal disease, but doing the best we could to protect our extremely vulnerable elderly residents."
