According to the report of the Committee on Privileges, the House of Commons admitted that Johnson had misled Parliament.
Johnson, in turn, called the report “biased” and noted that it was made to “blame him regardless of the facts.”
As the ex-premier emphasized, he leaves the parliament of his own free will.
The yet-to-be-published report of the parliamentary committee, according to Johnson, “has many inaccuracies and smacks of bias”, but “in the framework of an absurd and unfair process” he does not have the opportunity to appeal anything.
They still have not provided evidence that I knowingly or recklessly misled the House of Commons,” the politician said.
In testimony given to the committee in March, Johnson admitted to misleading Parliament but denied that he did so intentionally.
After leaving the post of prime minister last summer, Johnson remained an MP for one of the London districts, which he represented in the House of Commons for many years.
Today, I wrote to my association in Uxbridge and South Ruislip to announce that I am resigning immediately and initiating an immediate by-election, the politician said in a statement.
