Partygate: new compromising photos of Boris Johnson revealed

Opposition Leader Keir Starmer has accused the government of undermining Sue Gray’s long-awaited report. The Partygate investigation is due out this week. According to Dominic Cummings, a former adviser to Johnson but now one of his fiercest critics, the report allegedly contains photos proving that the Prime Minister lied to Parliament and possibly also to the police.

London police completed their investigation into illegal parties held in Downing Street and other government buildings a few days ago. A total of 126 fines were issued for breaches of the corona rules. Johnson himself only had to pay one fine, despite appearing in the investigation several times.

It was also revealed that Johnson and Sue Gray met at least once to discuss the report. This “secret” meeting once more brought the Prime Minister into disrepute. Several politicians close to Johnson deny knowing who organized the meeting. It’s also unclear exactly what the two sides discussed. Johnson himself did not comment further.

In photos obtained by ITV News, the Prime Minister is seen surrounded by four people, with a glass of champagne in his hand. According to our colleagues, these photos date from November 13, 2020, while Great Britain is in full confinement. The rules at the time only allowed two people who did not live under the same roof to meet indoors.
