'To me, he is a coward': Labour's deputy leader Angela Rayner labels former PM Boris Johnson a 'disgrace' over resignation
The deputy leader of the Labour Party, Angela Rayner, has branded former Prime Minister Boris Johnson a 'coward' over his resignation as an MP during the Partygate investigation.
"He could have defended himself, he could have gone to his constituents and fought the suspension, and he has decided he is not doing to do that because he knows he is in the wrong. And he has never apologised to what he has done to the British people… he has basically been gaslighting the nation, and I think he is a disgrace."
"It is absolute rubbish and tosh, as he would say. It is just another way of Boris Johnson not accepting responsibility for his actions. He thinks he can run fast and loose, and this time it has caught up with him. He is trying to play the victim when the real victims in this is the people that he tried to gaslight, those that couldn’t see their relatives during Covid, who sadly passed away while they were in Downing Street having parties.
