I don’t have a problem with Johnson commuting from Chequers to Downing Street during lockdown, as Mrs Johnson was in the "vulnerable" category (heavily pregnant), and was probably safer there, and Johnson was trying to deal with the COVID crisis - it’s just the bit at the end that raises doubts.



Why don’t they just say "No, we didn’t have any non-work visitors", rather than the phrase which dropped them in it before "The spokesman said there would have been staff at Chequers with the couple, and when asked if they had any non-work visitors he said: “Well, they were acting in accordance with the guidance and any subsequent legislation at all times."?.
