A limited report into the Downing Street 'partygate' was published on Monday - and it criticised a “serious failure” to observe the high standards expected of those working at the heart of Government.
The report, by civil servant Sue Gray, said “it seems there was too little thought given to what was happening across the country in considering the appropriateness of some of these gatherings, the risks they presented to public health and how they might appear to the public”.
The Downing Street garden was used for gatherings “without clear authorisation or oversight” in a way that was “not appropriate”.
