Boris Johnson sorry for party as Labour calls apology a joke

BBC News says Boris Johnson has faced fury in the Commons after receiving a fine from the police for breaking lockdown laws.

Most Tory MPs rallied behind the PM as he repeatedly apologised for attending a birthday party in Downing Street in 2020, saying he did not think he was breaking the law at the time.

But Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer called his apology “a joke” as MPs from all parties criticised his behaviour.

Tory MP Mark Harper called on the PM to quit over his “indefensible” actions.

Labour has secured a vote on Thursday on whether a Commons committee should investigate if the PM misled Parliament.
