Partygate: Police issue fines over No 10 gathering on eve of Prince Philip’s funeral

BBC News says police have issued fines to some people who attended an event in Downing Street on the eve of Prince Philip’s funeral, sources have told the BBC.

The gathering on 16 April 2021 was a leaving party for the former No 10 director of communications James Slack.

Prime Minister Boris Johnson did not attend the event and has so far not been issued with a fine.

The Metropolitan Police’s investigation of 12 events held across government began in January.

It was launched after an internal inquiry by senior civil servant Sue Gray passed information to the force.
