Published14 minutes ago

Prime Minister Boris Johnson has apologised for attending a "bring your own booze" party during the first coronavirus lockdown.

Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer said the PM must now quit over his "pathetic" excuses and "ridiculous" lies.

As the PM battled to save his premiership, he acknowledged to MPs the public "rage" over the May 2020 event in the Downing Street garden.

He said he regretted his actions, and believed the event was work-related.
