After a slew of scandals, will British voters stand by Johnson?

Al Jazeera  

The PM has admitted to breaking lockdown rules, raising public anger, but some say they will still support him. London, United Kingdom – British Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s grip on power is yet again being questioned over new reports of a rule-breaking drinks party in the Downing Street rose garden. At the time of the May 20, 2020 social event, which had a reported 40 attendees, the United Kingdom recorded 363 deaths from COVID-19 as the government told the public, “you can meet one person outside of your household in an outdoor public place.” Johnson, the leader of the Conservative Party, admitted that he briefly joined the party at Prime Minister’s Questions on Wednesday and acknowledged the public’s growing “rage” that COVID-19 measures were “not being properly followed by the people who make the rules”. Because he has applied greater ambition to domestic and international nature and climate policy than any prime minister we’ve ever had.” ‘I am satisfied with the work he has done’ Claret, a 48-year-old business manager in Scotland: “I believe there has been a concentrated effort by other parties to discredit him and the Conservative Party for any reason they can find. “But if there was another leadership challenge, I would have to think carefully about how I vote in the next election.” ‘I would prefer a change of leadership in the Conservative Party’ Gordon, 45, from London: “Johnson has not met a lot of Conservative Party objectives and expectations of people who voted for a government.
