LONDON :Britain\u0027s Prime Minister Boris Johnson and his finance minister Rishi Sunak are to receive fines for breaching strict coronavirus lockdown rules, the government said on Tuesday, prompting calls for them both to resign. Police have been investigating 12 gatherings at Johnson\u0027s Downing Street office

"Boris Johnson and Rishi Sunak have broken the law and repeatedly lied to the British public. They must both resign," said Keir Starmer, leader of the main opposition Labour Party.

However, the prime minister's immediate future will be determined by lawmakers in his own Conservative Party, who can trigger a leadership challenge if 54 of the 360 who sit in parliament demand a confidence vote. He has been under fire over his personal finances, his wife's tax arrangements and the disclosure he only gave up a US "green card" - an immigration status intended for permanent US residents - after he became finance minister in 2020.
