GRIEVING families who lost their loved ones to Covid have told of their outrage at the prospect of Boris Johnson seizing power.

Rivka Gottlieb's father Michael died in April 2020 aged 73, two weeks after contracting the virus.

She said: "My blood boils at the thought of him being PM again.

"I'm livid that he can even consider coming back after everything he got wrong. He oversaw the deaths of 200,000 people, many of whom couldn't say goodbye to their loved ones, while he was partying.

"He's not fit for office. 

Covid rules meant Michael's funeral had to be strictly close family only, something North London music therapist, Rivka 51, says was extremely difficult. The day after Lobby Akinnola buried his dad Femi in 2020, Mr Johnson had a party.
