Boris Johnson to continue as British Prime Minister Boris Johnson wins Conservative Party confidence vote Boris Johnson received 211 votes in favor and 140 against. But he received less votes than expected, according to international media reports. It is also noteworthy that almost half of the party’s own MPs (Conservative lawmakers), who won a landslide victory in the last general election three years ago, did not support Jones. The Conservative Party had 359 members in Parliament (Johnson survives no confidence vote).
The no-confidence motion came as more MPs questioned Boris’ leadership in the Conservative Party. The lawsuit was probably funded by Covid, who was charged with felony criminal mischief for allegedly trying to seduce a minor.

Although Boris told parliament he had joined the party and apologized, some in the opposition and the ruling party insisted on resigning. A special committee was also appointed to probe the incident. The committee found that a similar reception had taken place not only at Boris’ residence but also at the residence of other ministers, and that Boris had attended a liquor reception. The committee’s report was released last week. With this, the demand for resignation became stronger. More dissidents demanded his resignation from Boris’ party. With this, the Conservative Party decided to hold a vote to know Boris’ support.
Voting begins at 6pm British time on Monday. Things went awry after 54 members submitted a letter of support. Although Boris won the election, his majority was a setback. Labor leader Carey Stormer told LBC that the move marked the “beginning of the end” of the prime minister’s political career.
