Will Boris Johnson Apologise? Former UK PM Faces Two-Day Questioning Over Covid Pandemic Handling

Mr Johnson is expected to apologise to the inquiry and admit his government made mistakes during the pandemic.

But sources close to Mr Johnson have told the BBC he will argue he got big calls right that saved lives.

The inquiry has seen heavy criticism of Mr Johnson by former colleagues who worked with him when Covid-19 struck.

His ex-director of communications, Lee Cain, said the pandemic was the "wrong crisis" for Mr Johnson's "skill set", describing dither and delay on key decisions.

The former chief scientific adviser, Sir Patrick Vallance, said Mr Johnson was "bamboozled" by scientific data.

His ex-chief adviser, Dominic Cummings, repeated his past criticisms of his one-time boss, telling the inquiry that everyone called Mr Johnson "the trolley" because he tended to veer from one point of view to another.
