UK PM Boris Johnson and staff will 'fully cooperate' with London police as they investigate a number of parties held in Downing Street during Covid-19 lockdowns, says spokesperson
Johnson is facing calls to resign amid revelations that he and his staff attended a series of parties during the spring and winter of 2020 when most social gatherings were banned in England.
The allegations met the force’s criteria for investigating the “most serious and flagrant” breaches of Covid-19 rules, she added.“The public rightly expect the police to uphold the law without fear or favour, no matter who that involves,” Khan said in a statement. But Dick told the assembly that an investigation was warranted in this case because there is evidence that those involved knew or should have known that what they were doing was illegal.
The Cabinet Office said Gray's investigation would continue. But it wasn't immediately clear whether Gray would have to delay the announcement of her findings because of the police investigation.In response, Johnson's spokesman said the prime minister does not believe he has broken the law but will "cooperate fully" with the probe.
