FTSE 100 higher, as PM Johnson receives “no confidence” vote

London’s FTSE 100 closed higher on Monday, despite the Prime Minister Boris Johnson receiving a no-confidence vote.

Members of the conservative party triggered the vote following the “Partygate” report, which showed that the PM had broken his own lockdown rules.

In order to trigger the vote, 15% of Conservative party members must issue a vote of no-confidence.

Although the vote was held last week, it was only published today, due to the Queen’s Jubilee celebrations.

The FTSE 100 closed 1% higher despite this news.

 “A handful of men have become very rich by paying attention to details that most others ignored.”
