What action could police take over No 10 parties?
The Metropolitan Police is investigating parties held in Downing Street and Whitehall during the coronavirus pandemic.What events are police investigating?So far the Met has only said it is investigating "a number of events that took place at Downing Street and Whitehall in the last two years in relation to potential breaches of Covid-19 regulations".
Much of the leg work will have been done and the police need to decide who was at the events and whether they had a good reason to be there, he says. During the summer of 2020, the Met Police had the power to fine people £100 for the first Covid offence . Fines for subsequent offences could then double, up to a maximum of £3,200.However, the fact the police are investigating Downing Street events does not mean "fixed penalty notices will necessarily be issued in every instance and to every person involved", Dame Cressida said.We don't know for sure as the Met has not said which gatherings it is investigating.
No 10 said staff had “gathered briefly" to "wish the prime minister a happy birthday", adding that he had been there "for less than 10 minutes”.Boris Johnson announced plans for a “significant return to normality" in England by Christmas "through targeted, local action” instead of national lockdowns.5 November 2020
