UK PM Boris Johnson in hot water over 'bring your own booze' lockdown party

Was Prime Minister Boris Johnson partying while Britain was under strict Covid lockdown?

Johnson was caught in fresh row on Tuesday over an alleged Downing Street party he reportedly attended with wife Carrie in apparent breach of the country’s Covid-19 lockdown rules in May 2020.

The Opposition MPs roasted the PM as details of a bring-your-own-booze party email invitation sent to around 100 people emerged.

The BBC claims witnesses confirmed that Johnson was present at this so-called “Socially Distanced Drinks” at 10 Downing Street on May 20, 2020.

"After what has been an incredibly busy period we thought it would be nice to make the most of the lovely weather and have some socially distanced drinks in the No 10 garden this evening," reads the alleged email invite, published by ‘ITV News’.

"Please join us from 6pm and bring your own booze," the invite sent on behalf of Johnson reads..

What's more embarrassing for Boris Johnson is that while the rivals hauled him over coals, not one Cabinet minister has come forward to defend him.

Johnson had earlier dismissed party allegations, saying it was "people at work, talking about work" rather than a gathering.
