Michael Gove has apologised for the footage showing Tories at a lockdown rule-bending Christmas party, labelling it as 'indefensible' and 'terrible'.
The senior Cabinet minister said the footage - revealed but the Mirror - is 'completely out of order' - but declined to be drawn into whether the Metropolitan Police should launch a new probe.
The previously unseen video shows staff boozing, dancing and mocking lockdown laws at the height of Covid at Conservative Campaign Headquarters.
