2:10Now PlayingU.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson is fighting on after apologizing for attending an apparently rule-breaking Downing Street garden party during lockdown.
“There were things we simply did not get right,” he told the House of Commons on Wednesday, saying that while he believed it had been a “work” event, “I must take responsibility.”
Johnson’s second apology in barely a month came after two days of stonewalling since ITV reported that a top aide of the premier had invited about 100 people to a drinks party in the No. 10 garden in May 2020. Such gatherings were banned at the time as the U.K. battled the first wave of Covid-19 infections.
