The Latest Breaking News from the House of Commons

Boris Johnson committed a “serious contempt” of Parliament and repeatedly misled UK lawmakers about rule-breaking parties in Downing Street during the pandemic, according to a long-awaited probe which despite its largely unsurprising findings still shocked with the severity of its indictment of the former prime minister.

The First Minister described the report into Boris Johnson over Partygate as a "dark chapter" in the history of Westminster.

Whoever ordered a week of political chaos to coincide with a heatwave must have a very warped sense of humour indeed.

'Boris Johnson has exploded with a vast stream of incoherent nonsense, like a volcano spewing out lava... More lies, more evasions, more refusal to accept responsibility," says Sir Chris Bryant

Former PM claims report is ‘final knife-thrust in a protracted political assassination’

Former Prime Minster Boris Johnson has released a statement in response to being found to have misled Parliament over his Partygate denials.
