MPs to conclude Partygate inquiry as former PM accused of leading ‘mutiny’
The Metro says MPs are today set to meet to conclude their inquiry into whether former Prime Minister Boris Johnson misled Parliament over No 10 lockdown parties.
The Privileges Committee has pledged to continue the investigation process after Mr Johnson stepped down as an MP on Friday and launched a scathing attack on the probe, branding it a ‘witch hunt’.
The panel is set to meet in Westminster on Monday with a view to deciding when to publish its report.
Meanwhile, Tobias Ellwood, who chairs the defence select committee has accused Boris Johnson of ‘orchestrating a mutiny’ and said he should not be allowed to stand as an MP again until he shows ‘commitment’ to the party.
