Johnson's clings to premiership after evidence suggests he may have broken lockdown rules last Christmas

BORIS JOHNSON was left clinging on to his premiership today as pressure grew for him to step down after it emerged that he personally may have broken lockdown rules last December, with Labour demanding answers over Covid rule-breaking.
On Sunday, fresh evidence came to light showing the Tory leader hosting a quiz at Downing Street while coronavirus restrictions remained in place across the country.
Images published by the Sunday Mirror showed Mr Johnson sitting beneath a portrait of Maggie Thatcher while reportedly playing quizmaster flanked by colleagues, one of whom is draped in tinsel, as London was in Tier 2 restrictions.
