Boris Johnson says 'partygate' untruths were honest mistake
"Former British prime minister Boris Johnson has acknowledged he misled parliament about rule breaking government parties during the coronavirus pandemic, but he insists he never intentionally lied.

If found to have lied deliberately, he could be suspended, or even lose his seat in parliament in a dossier of written evidence, Johnson acknowledged rules and guidance had been followed at all times, but did not turn out to be correct. He says they were made in good faith, and he had not planned to mislead the house, Charles De Ledesma, London

Absolutely tough messaging, and it was a bit of a surprise to be on a surprise visit there from Boris Johnson. His last one because he's of course the outgoing a prime minister, and he also announced which is comforting for Ukraine 54 million pounds in new military aid, but during his speech on the country's Independence Day, he said high energy bills are the price of resisting Vladimir Putin.

"Hour. We're looking at British prime minister Boris Johnson, a remaining at 10 Downing Street after resigning, let's get over to San Francisco and join Ed Baxter for global needs. Yeah, exactly right, rich Johnson offering no apologies today. It is clearly now the will of the parliamentary Conservative Party that there should be a new leader of that party and therefore a new prime minister. He says it's disappointing because he still has a lot to do. Bloomberg's guy Johnson says a system has a number of steps though. You are going to get the parliamentary party of the Conservative Party the Tories whittling down the candidates to two. Those two candidates will then be put to grassroots members of the Conservative Party who will ultimately decide who the next prime minister is. This is a parliamentary system. That's how the process works. But how quickly that happens remains to be seen in theory it could happen relatively quickly. In theory, we could have a replacement for Boris Johnson by the end of August. But lord Kim darroch, who is a former UK ambassador to the U.S., says there's growing concern about that timeline. It's already clear that quite a lot of concerted MPs are not happy with how long this will take, and with the implication that Boris Johnson could continue to be prime minister through the rest of July through all of August into September. And they think either it needs to be speeded up somehow, or maybe a different process completely, but this is still to be played out, and we will know a lot more of the legislative committee meeting on Monday. Yeah, Derek. Bloomberg television earlier today, Monday commission meets to set that process into formal motion.

U.S. senators Richard blumenthal and Lindsey Graham are in Kyiv. Graham saying the more military aid, the higher the chances are that Ukraine can win the war.

"Day comes out of London, where British prime minister Boris Johnson, as you just heard, made his historic announcement earlier today that he is stepping down, triggering the search for a new government. To take us through the developments, we turn now to Bloomberg's Lizzie burden at number 10 Downing Street. So Lizzie, it has been historic, truly. Take us through how we got here. Well, we didn't think that we were going to get here last night. It just seemed like nothing could bring Boris Johnson out of that door to give his resignation, but he did it today after emergency meeting with his cabinet where they told him that he needed to quit. And also the mass exodus of members of his government paralyzing the administration. But when the speech finally came, Boris Johnson said that he is still going to remain leader until the party can find a replacement. That could take until at least September. And even on top of that, Boris Johnson was Boris Johnson. He was an optimist till the end. There was the criticism has been that it was there was very little humility in this speech. So now the attention turns to the next leadership contest. It will have two stages. First of all, MPs are going to put themselves forward and that will get whittled down to two and then it will be put to the grassroots membership to decide between them, but for now the constitutional crisis is averted. The queen isn't having to tell Boris Johnson, he can't have an election. Okay, thank you so much, Lizzie. For

Boris Johnson Says Russia Is Plotting to Use Chemical Weapons
"Prime minister Boris Johnson says the reason Russia is talking about bio labs in Ukraine is just lay a pretext for the use of chemical or biological weapons. Big key one other prediction, by the way, which is that the stuff that you're hearing about chemical weapons. This is straight out of their playbook. They start saying that there are chemical weapons that have been stored by their opponents or by the Americans and so when they themselves deploy chemical weapons as I fear they may, they have a mascara of a fake story ready to go. And you've seen it in Syria. You saw it in even in the UK when this is what you expect next then. Look, I just note that that is what they're already doing. It is a cynical barbaric government I'm afraid.

Thank you very much for joining us this afternoon. Thomas so first of all. How necessary is this face to face. Meeting between these lead us. Well it's great to be with you. Marcus and thanks so much for joining me. I think it's particularly significant time for the two leaders to mate especially given what happened in the aftermath of afghanistan. I think the first point to note here is really the obvious that boris johnson is reaching out to joe biden about holding a meeting and not the other way around reflects the rather straightforward state of affairs that the uk needs the united states more than the united states needs the uk both countries of course would prefer to be on good terms with one another and a healthy working transatlantic. Collaboration is in the interest of both london and washington. However despite the special relationship the power imbalance is real. And i think what we saw with afghanistan and what the johnson administration really has to come to terms with is that joe biden is not unlike any other leader in that. He's going to prioritize interest of his home country. It's clear that he wanted out about kenniston that he thought exiting afghanistan was in the best interest of the united states and that very little would've changed his mind. And that was the case. Regardless of what the u k thought or any other western ally for that matter but against this backdrop. I think it is a timely opportunity for both leaders to get together over over a table and kind of talk through things. What happened and how they can do things better

There what did you make of what he's had to say about the fact that you know they haven't been any attacks launched on the uk in the twenty years since the afghanistan campaign started From afghanistan is he being slightly disingenuous with the way that he's representing that information. Holden's likely yes. i mean. the reality is that there'd be many attacks in britain. They've had a lot to do with the kind of what you might call this. The inspiration that you've had from what has happened afghanistan and the development of the wars in iraq and elsewhere so yes attacks organiz specific from afghanistan very few and far between at least as far as world outside of south asia concerned within afghanistan. It's a very different case. But in a way i mean mister. Johnson is a mousetrap physical rhetoric. I think this is what we're seeing in this statement.
