Summery of story from Deutsche Welle
Fresh allegations arose on Friday about lockdown parties at the residence of United Kingdom Prime Minister Boris Johnson — with two separate gatherings on the eve of the funeral of Queen Elizabeth II’s husband Prince Philip.
Just two days ago, Johnson was forced to apologise for attending a garden party in 2020, after it was revealed that he and his staff at his Downing Street office and residence breached lockdown restrictions. The revelations prompted public outrage in the UK.
The latest media reports suggest his staff held two more parties at Downing Street in April last year, during a period of national mourning.
The allegations about parties ahead of the royal funeral were published in the conservative Daily Telegraph, for which Johnson was previously a regular columnist.
While Johnson was not present at the latest events, he was said to have attended at least one party in May 2020, when lockdown restrictions were at their tightest.
Martin Reynolds, the prime minister’s principle private secretary, invited some 100 staff to the event that Johnson himself attended. Some 30 to 40 people did attend, despite strict legal restrictions on social mixing — including a limit of 10 at funerals.
In an email marked “Sensitive,” he told them to “Bring your own booze.”
