Boris Johnson avoids distrust. But his government continues to shake

With 211 votes to 148, the London Parliament rejected the motion of no confidence against British Prime Minister Boris Johnson .

The number one of Downing Street - in recent months he has been in the crosshairs several times and the target of harsh criticism even within his conservative party - is therefore saved, but the result is anything but reassuring.

The worst forecasts in fact spoke of a hundred votes in favor of no confidence. On the other hand, 148 deputies were ready to bury him, a sign that Johnson no longer has the support of even many Tories and according to observers his days in the chair of head of government would still be numbered .

To weigh on Johnson the harsh criticism received for the management of the pandemic, the poor electoral results of the conservatives and the numerous scandals that have engulfed the party , starting with Partygate , which revealed how the premier's entourage - and the premier himself - have repeatedly violated the anti-Covid restrictions imposed on the population .

To testify the low approval BoJo enjoys, so to speak, the boos received in these days during the celebrations for the Platinum Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth.
