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.

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”.
