Dominic Cummings says Boris Johnson 'lied to Parliament' over party

Boris Johnson’s former aide says the Prime Minister “lied to Parliament” over a Downing Street Party and witnesses to the alleged party would “swear under oath” that he did.

Dominic Cummings made the revelations on his blog. The Prime Minister continues to insist that he believed the ‘Bring Your Own Bottle’ event at number 10 at the height of lockdown on May 20, 2020 was a work event, although he apologised to Parliament in the Commons that the event took place under his watch.

Cummings said he asked Johnson about the “drinks party” and referred to number 10 as a “madhouse” - which he said the Prime Minister brushed aside.
