Majority of Britons want Boris to resign but he refuses

Amanpour - Un podcast de CNN

UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson is in India for a two day visit, some 5,000 miles from home – but it seems he can’t outrun the accelerating fallout from his ‘Partygate’ scandal. Today, the House of Commons launched a formal investigation into whether Johnson misled parliament about breaking his very own Covid-19 laws. This as Johnson kicks up a fresh controversy by announcing a plan to offload asylum seekers to Rwanda, prompting immediate backlash from opposition politicians and human rights defenders. Johnson is refusing to resign, even though a majority of Britons say he should. For more, Christiane speaks with Mark Landler, London Bureau Chief for The New York Times.  Also in today's episode of Amanpour: Evgenia Kara-Murza, Project Manager of the Free Russia Foundation; acclaimed author and historian Ben Macintyre.
