UK Parliament Condemns Boris Johnson for Repeatedly Misleading Them on 'Partygate'

A committee of lawmakers in the UK has found that former Prime Minister Boris Johnson "deliberately misled" Parliament about rule-breaking parties during the COVID-19 pandemic and knowingly misled the committee itself. The committee recommended that Johnson be barred from getting the pass granted to former members of Parliament that allows them privileged access to the parliamentary grounds. The entire House of Commons will now debate and vote on the committee’s findings and recommendations. Johnson angrily quit as a lawmaker last Friday after being informed of the preliminary findings.
