The Fallout from Boris Johnson's Resignation and 'Partygate' Inquiry.

The UK parliamentary Privileges Committee is expected to publish a report this week on whether former Prime Minister Boris Johnson misled lawmakers over lockdown-flouting parties at his office. Johnson unexpectedly quit as a lawmaker on Friday and accused political opponents of driving him out in a "witch hunt." The committee could have suspended Johnson from the House of Commons if he was found to have lied deliberately. Revelations that Johnson and his staff held office parties, birthday celebrations and "wine time Fridays" in 2020 and 2021, at a time when millions were prohibited from seeing loved ones or even attending family funerals, angered many Britons and added to a string of ethics scandals that spelled his downfall.
