B & H Lib Dems call on Johnson to resign over his Partygate lies to Parliament.

B & H liberal Democrats repeated Ed Davey's call last night for Boris Johnson to show respect to the country and resign from Office as PM, and to also stand down as an MP.

Many Pensioners are now learning that the pound in their purse is not safe in the hands of the Tories as poverty looms on the horizon.
