this is horrific for boris johnson. all of - horrific for boris johnson. all of these results, the absolute top end of what downing street was expecting. that prime minister addressed the committee of backbench tory mps this afternoon and he gave a measured when he said there is no alternative these measures. he said he wanted to be as free as possible and ministers coming out to that meeting in parliament today said they thought the rebellion was disappearing and it seems to have had the opposite effect. they've got over 100 tory mps guarding against the government on vaccine passports means one thing now. if boris johnson has the combat department next week for future weeks with plans how can he possibly get that through with an uprising on his own side and the key thing to note is if there was to be a leadership challenge against borisjohnson and number of mps required will be 5a in both the votes tonight borisjohnson has exceeded that level to protect borisjohnson so i think what they cherilus is the conservative party is in a much more febrile mood an

lewis: things have gotten even worse for boris johnson in the last few hours. it has emerged that the u.k.'s top civil servant, who had been leading an inquiry into alleged christmas parties at downing street which happened a year ago, a potential breach of lockdown rules at the time, well, he has stepped back from leading that investigation after being linked to a social gathering. an event was held in simon case's old office in whitehall while london was under lockdown rule let's go to westminster and u.k. political correspondent nick heard -- nick. take us on a quick timeline, what is going on here? reporter: the conservative party, boris johnson's party, lost this extraordinary lead they had in one of the sea in the u.k. parliament. they were ahead by 23,000 votes in 2019. they lost the seat in a high election by 6000 votes -- the seat in election by 6000 votes and that has led to questions about boris johnson's position and how much longer he can potentially stay in power. one of the reasons attributed to that loss is the continued controversy, ctinued lea

this is a rejection of boris johnson as leader of the conservative party. it is a bigger tory rebellion that we have expected. it is 98 at the last count and they come from very different quarters of the conservative party. the prime minister will be receiving more phone calls, private messages from his mps. this is a turning point in the johnson era. this leader went to an election and won an 80 seat majority. he is relying on the labor party to get his plan through thanks to them. >> this does not bode very well for boris johnson. even stricter measures need to be introduced. he will have a real uphill battle. >> precisely. there in lies the rub. if we were to believe the scientific and medical experts, it is clear that this new variant, omicron will no longer be the delta variant here in london. that is already past that threshold. so we are going to get omicron. we are going to get a rise in formations across here. that means more hospitalizations. although we don't yet know and scientists have underlined the severity of that, the fact that this new var

can boris johnson survive this? tim: i think boris johnson is not in immediate trouble, though as your previous correspondence suggested, the polling is not that good for him. there was a poll out last night that suggested over 60% of people thought he should resign over this matter. i think tory mp's are going to be looking at the longer-term polling. they will look to see whether this really damages the conservatives' reputations relative to the labour party, which i've had trouble coming anywhere close to the conservatives even in the midterms. if that happens, tory mps are going to be quite worried because they picked boris johnson as an election winner. if you can't win them an election or doesn't look like he is going to, then in some ways what is the point of boris johnson? he hasn't really proved himself a particularly competent chief executive, if you like. francine: how many mps still support the prime minister at this point because of his personality? he has a personality that is quite popular. have the p

what does this mean for boris johnson? you've got to remember that only two years ago he won a big majority for the conservative party, an 80 seat majority, winning seats the party hadn't taken four years. the danger for the party hadn't taken four years. the dangerfor him as if the party hadn't taken four years. the danger for him as if tory mps look at this result and ask themselves whether or not he is becoming an electoral liability. it is a big danger. there is a lot of concern in the tory party about how the number ten operation is being run, the grip it has on events. you heard in the clip from the prime minister this morning, he accepted responsibility for this but he also seemed to blame the media for focusing on, in his view, the wrong issues. i don't think we are on the brink of a leadership challenge, far from it, but these are precarious moments now for boris johnson moments now for borisjohnson and tory mps want something to change. ben, ben wright, thank you. some coronavirus restrictions are to be reintrodu

"what a beautiful day!" and it doesn't take me long. i look out the window, open up my blinds and i see people walking with their masks, and then it hits me. it doesn't feel real. but you know it's real because you've got the letters in your hand telling you that you must stay at home. well, i've been here 25 years. we've got a range of people. people who are obviously quite wealthy. there are quite a lot of people renting, privately, and also social housing. and it's a wonderful mix. you cannot tell by walking down the street what type of accommodation. i don't know the very

is there someone within the party who could possibly replace boris johnson? therese: that is the problem for those who have lost confidence in johnson. he is a proven election winner, he won the london mayoral race twice, and a victory in 2019. the tories will be reluctant to ditch a politician of his undoubted ability to reach across party lines and demographics for someone who is untried. there are many pretenders to that position. any list would have to include the chancellor, and there are other former contenders for party leadership who voted against him last night. it is hard to see anybody in his league as a politician. he would have to follow long way before his party would abandon him for someone else, but never underestimate the capacity of the conservative party to be ruthless. tom: thank you for the implications for boris johnson as a result of these further restrictions and scandals out of downing street. let's switch focus to the central banks, it is a major week not just for the fed but the ecb, the boe and on friday the boj. new projections sh

do you think that you think the public trust in boris johnson is shot? i think the movie meals with you, the more you know bars, johnson, the less you like him let you trust. i dealt with him, but i was a transport minister in particular. i didn't have a very high opinion of him when he was married. london, i think, you know, what's happened recently has only brilliant post my view. you got a great all this country. he was a very corporate secretary and he handled that really in a sort of careless matter. what you can do is apartment secretary and he's, he's been looking for this country. now he's going to wait for that because a lot of people tend to policies quite like the fact that it's a bit the punish. it's a place it makes a couple of good jobs. you have to do the speaker, so let him do that. let's make money on the stock. prime minister, let me know make way for somebody to type on the property and democratically. my last question for you, mr. becker running very, very low on time, her political longevity, the political shelf life of boris johnson

this time perhaps a more joyous reason for boris johnson to have sleepless nights. a baby girl was born to him and his third wife earlier today. mother and baby are said to be doing well. we haven't seen a picture of the infant yet though we've seen boris johnson arriving at the hospital to potentially meet his new child. we believe this is his seventh child. he was probably also there for the birth as well. according to a government spokesperson he will be wanting to spend a bit more time with the new addition to his family, his seventh child so far. he has had a few marriages previously and has grown up children from those, too. but will this detract from the scandal? it is unlikely that is the case. you'll be relieved to hear though, that although it is legal this year the downing street christmas party has been canceled for now. >> thanks so much. appreciate it. breaking news. another major legal loss for president trump and how it could shed light on understanding his role in the insurrection. stay with us. when traders tell us how to make thinkorswim even bett
