The scumbag 'nasty party' are so scared of him putting his foot in it, they've managed to silence him !!! Coronavirus: Boris Johnson 'will not take part in PMQs' despite returning to No 10 three days ago 3 minutes ago Boris Johnson will not face Sir Keir Starmer at the weekly session of prime minister’s questions – despite returning to No 10 to resume his responsibilities three days ago. The Independent understands Dominic Raab, the first secretary of state, will step in for the PM and the Labour leader will still attend. Mr Johnson had been expected in the Commons on Wednesday afternoon for the first time since he fell ill with coronavirus last month – providing MPs and the new Labour leader with an opportunity to scrutinise his approach to the pandemic. It comes after the prime minister delivered an address to the nation on Monday – his first public appearance since leaving St Thomas’ Hospital – telling the public there were signs the country was “turning the tide” against Covid-19.
