Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s Conservatives have suffered heavy defeats in two by-elections: the Tories lost one seat each in by-elections on Thursday in both the Tiverton and Honiton constituencies in the south west of England and the Wakefield constituency in northern England. The election was seen as a ballot test for Johnson, who is under considerable pressure due to the party affair during the corona lockdown.
The Conservatives lost Tiverton and Honiton, where they had been MPs for more than a hundred years, to the Liberals, according to results released Friday morning. The Labor Party ruled in Wakefield. By December, the Tories had already lost a by-election in the North Shropshire constituency, which is considered a Conservative stronghold.
MP saw porn on mobile phone in parliament
Tiverton and Honiton’s by-election was necessitated by MP Neil Parish stepping down in April after complaints that he had been watching porn on his cell phone in Parliament.
The Wakefield by-election was called after MP Imran Ahmad Khan withdrew after he was convicted of sexually assaulting a 15-year-old boy.
