Sue Gray report: Pressure builds on Boris Johnson after report on lockdown parties released

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson apologized Monday after an inquiry found that Downing Street parties while Britain was in lockdown represented a “serious failure” to observe the standards expected of government or to heed the sacrifices made by millions of people during the pandemic

Johnson brushed off calls to quit over the “partygate” scandal, promising to reform the way his office is run and insisting that he and his government can be trusted.

Global’s Redmon Shannon reports on the evidence and the political pressure Johnson is facing.
