Prime Minister Boris Johnson (PA Wire)


Boris Johnson's amazing new photos that are allegedly on the No10 holiday also sparked a partygate scandal on Monday.



They were spotted showing the Prime Minister raising a glass, reportedly at a departure ceremony on November 13, 2020, by outgoing communications director Lee Cain.


It was obtained by ITV News as the report of senior civil servant Sue Gray was to be published.


It is expected to explode by providing more details of the party culture at No10 while millions of people across Britain follow the silence or other Covid restriction rules.


It is said that four pictures show the Prime Minister raising a glass at an exit meeting, with bottles of alcohol and party food on the table in front of him.


About eight people are suspected to be nearby, along with the person who took the photo.


ITV News said Mr Johnson appeared to be making a speech and raising a toast, holding half a glass of drink in his hands.


He added that his red box was on a chair, with two bottles of champagne or cava, four bottles of wine and half a bottle of gin.


These photos, however, could reinforce the argument that Mr Johnson was at a work party, even if it looked like he was at a party.


However, Deputy Labor Leader Angela Rayner said: "While the British public was sacrificing great things, Boris Johnson was breaking the law."


Eight days before the photographs were taken, Mr Johnson had set England's second national ban, which lasted four weeks. People were forbidden to meet people, except to meet one person outside.


Mr Johnson was not fined by Metro Police for an incident seen in photographs, showing at least nine people near six bottles of wine.


Downing Street declined to comment on the incident, saying the premier would comment after Sue Gray's report on partygate was published in the coming days.


"The Cabinet office and the Met police have received all the material connected to their investigation, including images," a spokesman for No 10 said.


The story continues


"The Met has completed its investigation and Sue Gray will publish her report in the coming days, during which the Prime Minister will address Parliament in full."


Mr Johnson told MPs in December that "the rules were always followed" when asked during Prime Minister's Question about Mr Cain's resignation.


Liberal Democrat deputy leader Daisy Cooper said the photos showed Mr Johnson "taking the British people for granted" as he wanted the Tories to remove him from office.


He stated, "It has become clearer than ever that Boris Johnson lied to the British people and Parliament."


"Opposition MPs must play their share in removing this Prime Minister.. Every day in office he will do a great deal of damage to the integrity of our community and of our democracy. ”


On December 8, Labor MP Catherine West asked Mr Johnson at the Commons if there had been a party on Downing Street on November 13 2020.


The Prime Minister responded: "No, but I am sure that no matter what happens, the direction was followed and the rules were always followed."


The photos show Mr Johnson standing next to seven others in one photo.


Including the photographer and the Prime Minister, that makes up at least nine people in the room.


Six bottles of wine are on the table, one of which is obviously empty.


ITV described Mr Johnson as carrying half a glass of fizz in the photos, while the minister's red box was placed on a chair in front of him.


The Prime Minister received only one fine during the Met investigation, at his 56th birthday party in June 2020.


Scotland Yard issued a fine to at least one person who was at the party on the day of Mr Cain's departure, but authorities declined to say what the incident was.


But it was clear that the violation, or violation, was related to the limits of house circles involving two or more people.


The Commons Privileges Committee should investigate whether Mr Johnson lied to Parliament about his denial of wrongdoing.


Deliberately misleading the House can often be a matter of resignation.
