Stanley Johnson says he is on 'essential business trying to COVID-proof my property in view of the upcoming letting season'.

The PM's father said air bridges had to be established"as soon as possible", saying:"From what I've seen the arrival of the British will not be a danger to the Greeks because they're so careful here."

Mr Johnson's trip has caused anger among MPs, amid claims it shows"it is one rule for the Conservatives and one rule for everyone else". Labour's shadow minister for mental health Rosena Allin-Khan said:"Most people have been following the guidelines and socially distancing - not everyone will get a holiday this year.Labour MP Kate Osborne said:"Dominic Cummings broke the lockdown rules now it's @BorisJohnson's father."They're laughing directly in the face of people up and down this country. Shame.

Neil Coyle, another Labour MP, told the Press Association:" has ignored government advice and he has also entered Greece through a secondary route, so I imagine the Greek authorities will be interested in how he has got there and what he is doing to ensure he's not spreading anything.Alistair Carmichael, a Liberal Democrat MP, said:"This is simply further evidence that when it comes to following the rules, it is one rule for the Conservatives and one rule for everyone else.

"Whilst the prime minister is continuing to ask people to make huge sacrifices, especially the people of Leicester, he must reflect on how much of a kick in the teeth these reports will be."

One law for them, another for us.

Why do the people closest to Boris keep popping up away from home.

I think tht Prince Charles has returned from Balmoral to Clarence House. So wht. A lot of private planes were flying during the lockdowns also.

Flobba-dob-dob

Should have taken Boris. But then you never see him so how would we know!

Not another one 🙄

Do hairstyles not exist in their family

I criticise pritipatel BorisJohnson & all the other useless members of the current administration. Mocked & belittled theresa_may made less mistakes in her term than these idiots make every week! HMG is weak, lame & full of corrupt conservatives, bowing to an unknown master

Are we going to get a Scottish court to make it unlawful to not 'enter into the spirit' now? people have been going to their European holiday homes for weeks now.

Another rich guy ignoring the rules

Like father like son, two idiots.

Was he sweating? Johnson Arcuri Epstein Trump judge!

The airports are open I believe..

He shouldn't have made the trip without a mask.

Should have gone to Durham

People saying one rule for us, another for them. Remind me when it was against the law to fly on a plane? Airports are open, what’s the issue?

But he’s filthy rich- he can do what he wants!! 🙄🙄🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️

It's the Stan and Dom show. Both tools.

It is possible that some haven't realised it yet but this motley crew of wannabe privileged nobodys are taking the piss out of the rest of us.

Stanley Johnson when he finds out the Greek authorities are on to him..... Greece

Why criticise him he didn't break any law... His money he does what he like with it

Can't believe people on this site defending this man, what the hell is wrong with you people? do you actually enjoy being trodden all over by well to do toffs?

So where is the news in this ? He did nothing wrong yet this is an exclusive ? Oh dear you must be bored
