LONDON (Reuters) - Prime Minister Boris Johnson is under pressure over a series of accusations about how he responded to Britain's coronavirus pandemic, the refurbishment of his flat and an inquiry into who was leaking private information from his office.

His office at Number 10 Downing Street and ministers in his cabinet team have denied the accusations, but opposition lawmakers are hoping to stoke the fire with the Labour Party making accusations of sleaze.
