Scottish Greens: Time for Johnson and Sunak to resign

The Prime Minister and the Chancellor have lost public trust and must resign, according to the Scottish Greens. This follows reports that both Boris Johnson and Rishi Sunak have received fines following investigations into parties at Downing Street.

The Scottish Greens public health spokesperson, Gillian Mackay MSP said: “Even by the low standards of the Prime Minister and the Chancellor, this is a disgrace. They have shown a total disregard for the rules that they themselves set. They totally ignored the sacrifices that people were making across the country and partied on regardless.

"It is not just the parties that were shocking, it is also the series of lies and half-truths that were told to cover them up. This whole saga has totally undermined public trust in them and their government. They cannot credibly govern. It is time for them to take responsibility. If they have a shred of dignity left they will resign immediately.”
