Former UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson criticizes Conservative party for ousting him, calls removal a "wrong calculation" amid partygate scandal.

In a recent interview, former UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson criticized his Conservative party for an "outbreak of irrationality" leading to his July 2022 removal as leader. He argues this was a "wrong calculation," despite the party's past successes, including a significant majority in 2019. Johnson, promoting his upcoming book "Unleashed," retracts his previous apology for the partygate scandal, calling his prior statements "pathetic" and "grovelling."
