LONDON - Fighting to save his job, Prime Minister Boris Johnson of Britain on Thursday insisted that he was"absolutely not" delaying publication of a report into a career-threatening scandal over parties held in Downing Street during Covid-19 lockdown.

At the request of Downing Street, Ms Gray is removing from her document any material that police think could compromise their investigation into the more serious cases she uncovered that may have broken the law. Only once that is done will the report be handed to Mr Johnson and then published. He is accused of misleading Parliament - normally a resigning matter - about what he knew about the series of gatherings in Downing Street reported by the British media.

Because the process is conducted in secret, it is unclear how many such letters have been submitted. Only a handful of members of Parliament have said they have sent one. However, the police could take months to complete their work, and there is no guarantee that the material removed from Ms Gray's report will ever be published.
