Johnson pictured drinking champagne at office party during lockdown... but no fine
BORIS Johnson raises a toast at a No10 lockdown bash he denied ever happened, in one of a series of photos blowing a hole in his Partygate defence.
Others at the event were said to have been hit with fixed-penalty notices, but not the PM.
THE Prime Minister stands accused of lying to Parliament as four pictures show him raising a glass with aides around a table laden with booze and party food.
Sources told the Mirror the photos were taken at a leaving do at No10 on November 13 2020, when people from different households were banned from mixing indoors as Covid spread.
In the Commons the following year Mr Johnson denied a party had taken place in No10 on that date.
He was asked by Labour MP Catherine West on December 8, one week after the Mirror first revealed the lockdown parties, whether he would confirm the event. He replied: “No. But I’m sure that, whatever happened, the guidance was followed and the rules were followed at all times.”
Mr Johnson already faces an inquiry by the Committee of Privileges over whether he misled Parliament when he claimed no rules had been broken in No10. Ministers who knowingly mislead the House of Commons are expected to resign.
