A third Tory MP has called for Boris Johnson to step down in wake of the Sue Gray report into parties in Downing Street and Whitehall during the covid lockdown.
David Simmonds MP said while the government enjoys public confidence “the Prime Minister does not”, reigniting the partygate scandal just as the Prime Minister attempts to move on from the Sue Gray report.
Simmonds said: “It is time for him to step down so new leadership can take forward the important work of government.”
