Britain’s Boris Johnson said on Wednesday he would seek to be reelected prime minister at the next election and could not think of any circumstances under which he would resign.

Opposition parties and some of Johnson’s own Conservative lawmakers have said the prime minister must go, after police fined him for breaking his own stringent coronavirus lockdown rules.

Opponents say he repeatedly lied to parliament last year when he said all guidelines had been followed. The prime minister flew to India on Wednesday for a two-day visit. Asked if he saw any circumstances where he could resign, he said: “Not a lot springs to mind at the moment.”“The best thing we can all do is to focus on things that can really change and improve the lives of voters and stop talking about politicians,” he told reporters.
