Boris Johnson ignores Partygate at Cabinet and refuses to admit he broke the law

Boris Johnson failed to mention his Partygate fine at Cabinet today in the first meeting of his top team since he was hit with a penalty for breaking his own lockdown laws.

Downing Street said the Prime Minister did not raise the issue with senior Tories, with the session focusing on Ukraine, efforts to get civil servants back in the office and his upcoming trip to India.
