Boris Johnson has insisted he did not mislead Parliament when he told MPs he believed gatherings at Number 10 did not break Covid rules.

It comes after the cross-party Privileges Committee found evidence to strongly suggest breaches would have been "obvious" to the then-PM.

Responding to the findings Mr Johnson said: "I believed that what we were doing was implicitly within the rules and that is why I said what I said in the House of Commons … there's been no contempt here."
