A Whitley Bay woman who lost her dad and brother to Covid says that Boris Johnson "must take responsibility for his actions" after he admitted misleading Parliament, but denied it was intentionally or recklessly.
Mr Johnson was grilled on live TV over whether he lied to MPs over Partygate in a Privileges Committee hearing that will determine his future in politics. The former PM has accepted that he misled MPs but said his comments were made "in good faith" based on what he "honestly" knew at the time.
The former prime minister said the boozy gatherings were necessary as part of work morale in Number 10 during the pandemic. But he vowed Covid rules and guidance was followed in No10.
