British Prime Minister Boris Johnson denies a press report claiming he allegedly said he’d rather see bodies pile high in their thousands than impose another national lockdown in the country. The Daily Mail claims the comment was made in 2020 but Mr. Johnson says it is 'total rubbish'. In January this year a third lockdown was ordered after infections began to rise again. This claim comes after allegations of ethical breaches and cronyism against Mr. Johnson and his Conservative government ahead of next week’s regional and local elections.
