Boris Johnson faces consequences for Partygate scandal.
TL;DR Summary
Boris Johnson testified before a committee of MPs investigating whether he intentionally misled Parliament over the Partygate scandal. Johnson repeatedly declared his honesty, but his mood alternated between testy and repentant abstinence. The committee's verdict may set in train a process that ends in him leaving Parliament, and his polling is down, making his chances of hitting the political heights again slim.
