The full exchange: Keir Starmer takes on Boris Johnson over lockdown party scandal

Boris Johnson and Keir Starmer have engaged in a heated exchange at this week's PMQs, in a week where the prime minister is facing pressure from several MPs to resign.
Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer asked the prime minister when he first became aware that any of his staff had "concerns" about the gathering in the Downing Street garden on 20 May 2020.
Sir Keir said: "Not only did he write the rules, but some of his staff say they did warn him about attending the party on 20 May 2020.
"Now, I have heard the prime minister's very carefully crafted response to that accusation. It almost sounds like a lawyer wrote it. So, I'll be equally careful with my question. When did the prime minister first become aware that any of his staff had concerns about the 20 May party?"
Mr Johnson replied: "It is for the inquiry to come forward with an explanation of what happened", adding: "I am afraid he simply must wait."

One thing's for certain he enjoys mixed opinion among the masses, like 'William the Conqueror' and 'Charles the Bad'.

1. Why are the met police waiting for this Sue Gray report before launching their own? Why are our leaders being held to a different standard of law than the rest of the country? 2. Labours plan is pathetic. VAT cut will do nothing. Nationalised Energy is what we want and need.

[@grotzbully1340]

Guess the vat cut was just brought up, full knowingly that the tories will vote it down to expose their lies.

[@StarJellie]

Met police had to let people into no.10 for the parties. They're complicit.

What’s the point of PMQ If he isn’t required to address any of the questions and can just start talking about unrelated topics.

OMG I wouldn't usually praise Kier Starmer but he was ON FORM today 🤣

[@MultiPlanet3]

So Sorry Mr Johnson deliberately by passing to answer the question was asked.

[@streetinscotland1225]

Boris has no honour nor integrity, so he will never do the honourable thing and step down. Having said that, Starmer is a fkn awful leader and needs to go too.

If it's so peachy, why are so many driven to drink. Why, so much poverty. Charities are the hall mark for the monarchy and it's existence. In stead of the monies being given to the monarchy why not give it directly to the poor. Dead weight removed from the tax payers. Honestly, the monarchy isn't rich enough, it has to feed out of the trough of the tax payers........trust me, not is all well in merry old England
