'100 People Have Been Invited To The Downing Street Garden Lockdown Drinks,' According To A Press Release.

During the first lockdown, it is understood that up to 100 people were invited to a "bring-your-own-booze" drinks gathering in the Downing Street garden.

According to witnesses, the PM and his wife attended the gathering on May 20, 2020.

Boris Johnson, on the other hand, has refused to acknowledge whether he was present.

The Metropolitan Police said it had contacted the government in response to "widespread reporting relating to alleged breaches" of Covid guidelines.

ITV News obtained an email in which people were invited to "socially distanced refreshments in the No 10 garden this evening."

It was sent when the lockdown was still in effect. The laws in England were finally modified 12 days later, on June 1, allowing groups of up to six people to assemble outside.

If the prime minister was proved to have attended, Labour claimed he would face "severe questions."

Downing Street, however, declined to comment, stating that the gathering, along with others believed to have occurred during the coronavirus ban in 2020, is now being investigated as part of an ongoing independent investigation.


A Met spokesperson said the agency was "aware of widespread information relating to alleged breaches of the Health Protection Regulations at Downing Street on 20 May 2020 and is in contact with the Cabinet Office," which oversees government policy.
