UK Partygate I Boris Johnson Faces Dissent & Resignations, Will The Rulebook Help Him Survive As PM?

Political and public anger has put Johnson's position as leader under threat. Four of Boris Johnson’s closest aides have resigned, in the latest setback for the embattled British Prime Minister trying to reset his government in the wake of the Downing Street 'Partygate' scandal. The resignations of aides come amid growing unrest within the Conservative Party. According to reports, 17 Tory MPs who have submitted letters of no confidence in the prime minister - 54 are needed to trigger a leadership contest. The development comes days after a probe by civil servant Sue Gray revealed that multiple parties took place at Downing Street while the rest of the UK was living under strict Covid-19 lockdown rules.
