The MP for Great Yarmouth has accused the Labour Party of playing with politics over calling for a vote on whether Boris Johnson should be the subject of a new investigation for breaching Covid rules.
As well as criticising the Labour call for a parliamentary committee to probe if Mr Johnson misled Parliament over the so-called Partygate affair, Brandon Lewis says the prime minister is focussed on working to creating more jobs for the country.
Mr Lewis said: "Today is Labour playing politics while the prime minister is working to build more jobs for the UK."
Today's vote comes as Mr Johnson is in India to strengthen business ties with the UK.
Neighbouring MP, Duncan Baker, member for North Norfolk, today said he backed an enquiry into the prime minister's conduct.
