Loved Lulu Lytle’s comment
Quote:
Lulu was present in Downing Street on 19 June working on the refurbishment. Lulu was not invited to any birthday celebrations for the prime minister as a guest. Lulu entered the cabinet room briefly as requested, while waiting to speak with the prime minister.
So, uninvited, she wandered down unescorted three flights of stairs from decorating the flat at Number 11 Downing Street, walked along the corridors between No. 11 and No. 10, then gained access to the one of the most secure rooms in the country, the Cabinet Room, as requested?

So she wasn’t invited, just requested…

Scotland Yard poised to announce it will launch a criminal investigation into eight out of seventeen reported 'Downing St parties' so says Cresida Dick, reported by The Telegraph.

Dame Cresida obviously been hitting up Boris for guidance on how to perform majestic U turns.

Does this mean Sue Gray will have to suspend/not publish her inquiry, as it could prejudice the police investigation?

Handy…

Could this be 'living with' the enquiry? perhaps?

Evening Standard reports the following.

Met Police to probe Downing St parties


The Metropolitan Police will investigate several alleged parties held in Downing Street during lockdown, Cressida Dick has confirmed.

The Met Police commissioner said the force would launch a probe into the gatherings held while all indoor mixing was banned.

She would not specify how many alleged parties would be investigated, stressing the force “would not give a running commentary” on their probe.

Ms Dick told City Hall’s Police and Crime Committee: “As a result of the information provided by the Cabinet Office inquiry team and my officers’ own assessment, I can confirm the Met is now investigating a number of Downing Street parties.”

Excellent (for a change).

Re: All those No.10 lockdown parties
 
I wonder if Gray has discovered something else that warranted referring to the police? The line that they're in contact with the Met Police could be taken either way.

Re: All those No.10 lockdown parties
 
I find it alarming that there are people that still defend Boris and in fact defend the whole Conservative party.
With the latest birthday celebrations news it more than ever important that Boris leaves. Immediately.


And I really think we could do with a genrral election. This country would run a lot better on a co-alition government in my opinion.
Neither the Conservatives or labour have got it right at the moment.

Sue Gray report will not be published this week, Sky News understands

A source close to the Cabinet Office investigation has said we will not be getting the report this week.

It had been hoped the investigation would conclude over the next few days.

It's not clear whether the timescale has been pushed back due to the Met Police announcing its own investigation.

From the Times

https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/p...ties-f2tvj9vq6

Quote:
The Metropolitan Police has announced a criminal investigation into alleged “serious and flagrant” breaches of coronavirus restrictions in Downing Street and Whitehall.

In a move that heaps pressure on the prime minister, Dame Cressida Dick, the Met commissioner, said that detectives were investigating a “number of events” over the past two years without specifying. She said the No 10 investigation had been opened as a result of information from the Cabinet Office and on the assessment of detectives.
Sue Gray works in the Cabinet Office…

Quote:
Announcing the investigations, Dick told the London Assembly that the force would occasionally retrospectively examine the “most serious flagrant type of breach”.

This is considered appropriate at Downing Street for three main reasons, Dick said: there was evidence that those involved knew, or ought to have known, that what they were doing was an offence; not investigating would “sufficiently undermine” the legitimacy of the law, and there was “little ambiguity of absence of any reasonable defence”.
