“Partygate” scandal | Police have sent an investigative questionnaire to Boris Johnson

(LONDON) London police have sent British Prime Minister Boris Johnson an investigative questionnaire into Downing Street gatherings during lockdown, his spokesman said on Friday.

Posted at 5:32 p.m.

“We can confirm that the Prime Minister has received a questionnaire from the London police. He will respond to them as he should,” the spokesperson said in a statement.

Thursday evening, the investigators announced that they were going to contact “more than 50 people” to obtain their testimonies on this scandal which threatens the political survival of Mr. Johnson.

A few hours earlier, the press had published a new photo showing Boris Johnson at one of these rallies, with two other people.

A dozen receptions are targeted by the police investigation, which would have been spread over eight dates in 2020 and 2021.

Former British Prime Minister John Major launched a virulent charge Thursday against Boris Johnson, whom he accuses of having acted illegally.
