British Prime Minister Boris Johnson survived a vote of no confidence from his own Conservative MPs, after a string of scandals that have left the party in tatters.
Johnson, 57, needed the backing of 180 MPs to survive the vote — a majority of one out of the 359 sitting Conservatives in parliament.
Defeat would have meant an end to his time as party leader and prime minister until a replacement was found in an internal leadership contest.
