London police say they are investigating Downing Street lockdown parties in 2020 to determine if U.K. government officials violated coronavirus restrictions. Tuesday's announcement puts further pressure on British Prime Minister Boris Johnson.
LONDON Prime Minister Boris Johnson is bracing for the conclusions of an investigation into allegations of lockdown breaching parties, a document that could help him end weeks of scandal and discontent, or bring his time in office to an abrupt close.
Senior civil servant Sue Gray could turn in her report to the government as soon as Wednesday. Johnson’s office has promised to publish its findings, and the prime minister will address Parliament about it soon after. Gray’s office would not comment on timing, and Foreign Secretary Liz Truss said the Conservative government had not yet received the report Wednesday morning.
She said she could not guarantee the government would publish the full report, saying there could be security issues that mean parts of it are problematic to publish. But we will absolutely publish the findings of the report..!!
