Chris Bryant condemned the actions of the Prime Minister as he said Boris Johnson had become “blind to his own failings.” The Labour MP described the apologies given by Mr Johnson as “excuses “ as he suggested the Conservative Leader should resign amid the controversy of the Partygate investigation. The Chair of the Committee of Privileges argued the Sue Gray report had revealed “indefensible” actions of the Prime Minister. Speaking to Sky News, he said: “The rules don’t apply to them, there’s one set of rules for everybody else and there’s one set of rules for them.”<\/p>\n
Mr Bryant continued: “It even existed within Downing Street itself so all the special advisors and the senior people were able to carry on as they wanted.<\/p>\n
“When the cleaners and the security staff said, look this is just not right, you’re not abiding by the rules, they were told where to get off.<\/p>\n
“It’s just morally indefensible I think.”<\/p>\n
The Labour MP blasted the mistreatment of Downing Street staff by senior individuals who attended the boozy gatherings.<\/p>\n

Sky News host Kay Burley said: “Yeah, the Prime Minister has addressed that, we’re told by Steve Barclay, and he is apologising personally to all of those involved.”<\/p>\n
Mr Bryant interrupted: “No, sorry Kay, no, but he isn’t”<\/p>\n
He added: “He may sort of do that apology that he did in the House of Commons yesterday but that actually amounts to excuse after excuse after excuse.<\/p>\n
“He doesn’t believe he did anything wrong or that anybody else did.<\/p>\n
“He’s blind to his own failings.”<\/p>\n
