The UK’s Metropolitan Police has announced it has launched an investigation into potential breaches of COVID-19 regulations at events held at Downing Street and Whitehall.
“There was evidence that those involved knew or ought to have known that what they were doing was an offence,” said Metropolitan Police Commissioner Cressida Dick.
It is understood pictures of Downing Street parties, which include the PM and guests with wine bottles, have also been handed to an independent investigator.
