British Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s Conservative Party has lost its lead over the opposition Labor Party following revelations about the Christmas party’s alleged looting in Downing Street that have sparked outrage and protests.

Johnson secured 365 of the 650 seats in the 2019 snap-election, the largest majority of the Tories since Margaret Thatcher’s victory in 1987.
Johnson imposed restrictive measures in England on Wednesday, hours after he apologized for leaking a video showing Downing Street executives having fun at a 2020 Christmas party during the Lockdown ban.
