Keir Starmer has ridiculed Boris Johnson for saying he 'didn't realise he was at a party'. He called on the PM to do the 'decent thing' and resign, he called him out for saying 'rules don't apply to him'.

Sir Keir compares Mr Johnson's actions to ex Health Secretary Matt Hancock who resigned after breaching Covid restrictions. But says PM appears to see himself as above the general public.

Mr Johnson is admitting the event should not have gone ahead and apologising for it. But *at the same time* is also arguing that it was technically within the rules as a work-based event 🤔

Watch Boris Johnson's full apology on #PMQs here:

Sir Keir Starmer told Boris Johnson the "party is over" as he asked the PM to resign before he is kicked out by voters or Tory MPs. He told the Commons: "We've got the Prime Minister attending Downing Street parties - a clear breach of the rules."

Labour Toby Perkins says no PM has dismissed his office like Johnson. He has been sacked from two previous jobs for lying. Why should the office of PM be held to a lower standard. @tobyperkinsmp mirror.co.uk/news/politics/…

@tobyperkinsmp Will Boris Johnson resign after he admitted he was at the Downing Street lockdown party?
