A watered-down investigation into parties held in Downing Street during the pandemic has cited 'failures of leadership' and that a number of the gatherings should not have taken place.
Top civil servant Sue Gray has been investigating multiple reports of lockdown-breaking events held in Whitehall during the lockdowns - with the Metropolitan Police also investigating numerous incidents.
The police involvement means that the report published by Ms Gray today has been significantly watered down - but still contain some damning judgements on the actions of those within Number 10.
