A vote of confidence in the U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson was triggered by lawmakers in his own Conservative party due to widespread anger over a series of lawbreaking parties in the country.
The prime minister of Britain is Boris Johnson.
Conservative MPs passed a confidence vote on Monday by a wide margin.
There is a chance that Johnson will get another no-confidence vote in the next year.
Senior members of the leader's own party, as well as the public, pressured him after reports of multiple parties at Downing Street.
Johnson initially denied the parties and later apologized but denied that he lied to parliament.
There have been controversy surrounding the Covid-19 vaccine and the UK's exit from the European Union. Revelations of a string of rule breaking parties at Downing Street by Johnson and his officials when pandemic restrictions were in force prompted a sweeping internal investigation and a criminal probe ending in more than 120 police fines. The first time a sitting British prime minister was reprimanded for breaking the law was when Johnson was reprimanded. There were a number of scandals involving the government's handling of the Pandemic, the awarding of valuable contracts, the refurbishment of Johnson's flat, unlawfully suspending parliament, and being sacked from the shadow Cabinet, among others.
