Boris Johnson “broke lockdown laws” and then sent his ministers out to “defend the indefensible”, Sir John Major claimed today as he launched a stinging attack on the prime minister’s integrity.

He suggested that if Johnson was fined by police for breaking lockdown rules he must resign or Tory MPs must remove him from office. » |Oliver Wright, Policy Editor | Steven Swinford | Thursday, February 10, 2022
