Another person said: "They broke their own emergency laws at a time when people were dying alone, separated from family and friends for months on end. "If there are no consequences to this then as a country we are in a very dangerous place." However, there were some who had opposing viewpoints, with one person commenting about the PM: "No he should not resign, he was attending team building events.

It is ridiculous to even suggest it while we are in danger of world war." But a majority were in favour of the pair resigning, with another saying "They have brought their office into disrepute." One reader also said: "Broken the law in office.

If I did that in work I'd get the sack." Do you think that Johnson and Sunak should resign? Let us know in the comments section.
