Reacting to the resignation of Prime Minister Boris Johnson, Layla Moran said:

“The sorry saga of the Boris Johnson era is coming to an end".

“This helpless Prime Minister has finally run out of road, and he is being forced out in disgrace and scandal. Conservative MPs should be looking themselves in the mirror and asking why it took them this long to show him the door".

Layla Moran MP challenged Health Minister Maggie Throup yesterday in the House of Commons chamber over reports “that the approach the Government is taking is tantamount to herd immunity”.  In the exchange, Layla asked: “can the Minister be clear, is herd immunity the plan? And if it isn’t, what is?”

In her response, the Minister failed to answer or address the question. The exchange took place during an Urgent Question in the Commons over the Government’s Covid-19 strategy.
