Downing Street gate, buckled / Steve Back
(Picture: Steve Back)IT’S ONE last ‘cripes’: a removals van taking Boris and Carrie Johnson’s belongings out of Downing Street this week damaged a gate in the street outside.
The van was backing towards Number 10 on Monday to take out the Prime Minister’s things when it hit and buckled the security gate on Whitehall, as our picture shows. An eyewitness told us the driver was “red-faced” while officers on duty were alarmed by the noise of the crash. It’s thought likely that it will cost public money to fix.
