Source: Liam Randall (LDR service) BORIS Johnson has dismissed the suggestion that allegations over his conduct could harm his party’s chances of making gains in the Senedd elections. The Prime Minister was speaking during a visit to a factory in Wrexham, which was foreshadowed by claims he said he would rather have “bodies pile high in their thousands” than implement a third coronavirus lockdown. He described the allegations as “total, total rubbish” after details of a discussion, which was said to have been held in Downing Street in the autumn, were reported by the Daily Mail.

The road out of lockdown in Wales has been made possible by the United Kingdom s programme for tackling Covid, the Prime Minister has said.
Boris Johnson has visited Wrexham for a Senedd election campaign visit.
He said voters were more concerned over the vaccine rollout than the row over how a renovation of his flat was paid for.
And he defended a decision by his party not to take further action against the MP for Delyn, Rob Roberts.
Mr Johnson said the disciplinary process was correct after the MP was strongly rebuked by the party for sending inappropriate messages to a female intern.
The Prime Minister was speaking during a visit to a factory in Wrexham. His visit was part of a whistlestop tour of the region which saw him visit Prestatyn and Llandudno. His tour was foreshadowed by claims he said he would rather have “bodies pile high in their thousands” than implement a third coronavirus lockdown. He described the allegations as “total, total rubbish” after details of a discussion, which was said to have been held in Downing Street in the autumn, were reported by the Daily Mail. Mr Johnson’s tour of Net World Sports on the town’s industrial estate also followed shortly after claims by his former chief aide Dominic Cummings that the refurbishment of his flat was being funded by Conservative Party donors.
