Carrie Johnson tonight paid a £50 Partygate fine from police and "apologised unreservedly" after months of stonewalling questions about her record.
The Prime Minister's wife has been fined as part of the Met Police investigation into Downing Street lockdown parties, along with Boris Johnson and Chancellor Rishi Sunak.
It's understood she was issued a £100 fine, halved if paid within 14 days, over a birthday party for her husband in the Cabinet room on 19 June 2020 - while indoor gatherings were banned.
