Opening the show this week, John, 55, mentioned parties that took place at Downing Street during lockdown in 2020.
The Runcorn -born funnyman said: " Boris Johnson started off by saying there was no parties... no parties, in his own house!
"Everybody knows if there's a party in your own house. Even a person like Boris Johnson, who looks like he cuts his own hair."
He went on to say that he felt sorry for Sue Gray, whose name is now known by everybody "in the same way that Keyser Soze's is".
Launching a heated message directly at the Prime Minister, John then said: "Do us a favour Boris, stop lying to us and being a p***k."
The audience in the studio responded with rip-roaring applause, while many viewers also took to Twitter to share their thoughts.
Gavin Evans said: "Well said John Bishop".
AmbientCosmos said: "This is funny but correct by John Bishop".
Pintsizeduke said: "100% spot on, Boris needs to stop lying"
The John Bishop Show airs from 9.30pm on ITV and the ITV Hub.
