Boris Johnson said over 600 days of the pandemic events on just 8 days were found to be in breach of the Covid regulations. The Prime Minister was speaking after the publication of the Sue Gray report into 16 events held in Downing Street and lockdown during the pandemic.
Mr Johnson started his statement in the House of Commons by saying he repeated his apology for the event which he was fined for, and accepted responsibility for all the events that had taken place. He said he 'briefly attended' gatherings to thank staff for their contributions during the Covid pandemic.
The Prime Minister has said he takes “full responsibility for everything that took place on my watch”.
