British Prime Minister Boris Johnson has admitted to attending a Downing Street Garden Drink Party during the lockdown in May 2020. Writes about it Sky News.
It is noted that the politician made the confession, speaking in the House of Commons, under strong pressure from the deputies.
Johnson apologized for the incident.
He went into the garden to thank the staff, he said, and then returned to his office 25 minutes later.
“I thought it was a work event,” Johnson said.
Previously, the British Prime Minister’s office refused to say whether Johnson was present at the event where there were about 40 people at a time when such gatherings were prohibited.
