The ''Partygate'' name is especially tabloid like. I'm sure people all over the world are desperate to know if Boris stood 1 m or 2 m from some other random person, years ago. If we're lucky might hear what they were drinking.
There's a war going on and many other actual newsworthy events. A rare moment when one has to switch over to CNNI.
I assume you just mean non-event for international viewers as opposed to UK viewers, for whom of course this has been a highly anticipated political event for months.
Though to be honest I expect there is a fair amount of interest globally given that a high profile former prime minister likely misled parliament and could well be suspended from it. Partygate, which was quite an appropriate name, did make the headlines around the world at the time.
