Boris Johnson’s position ‘untenable’ if he is fined over Partygate, says Angela Rayner

The Independent says Boris Johnson should resign as prime minister if he is fined over lockdown-breaching parties at 10 Downing Street, Labour’s deputy leader Angela Rayner has said.

Ms Rayner told Sky News that the position of Mr Johnson and ministers including chancellor Rishi Sunak would be “untenable” if the Metropolitan Police inquiry concludes they broke the rules they set for other Britons.

Her call comes weeks after leader Sir Keir Starmer appeared to back away from his demand for the PM’s resignation, saying that it was important the country showed “unity” during the Ukraine invasion crisis.
