Boris Johnson has made a statement to MPs after an inquiry found "little thought" was given to events held at Downing Street and within Whitehall which broke lockdown rules.
The Prime Minister appeared in the Commons and made a statement about the results of the Sue Gray inquiry telling MPs and the British public: "I'm sorry".
"Sorry for the things we simply did not get right and sorry for the way that this matter has been handled. It is no use saying that this or that was within the rules. It is no use saying that people were working hard. This pandemic was hard for everyone. We asked people across this country to make the most extraordinary sacrifices: not to meet loved ones, not to visit relatives before they died, and I understand the anger that people feel.
