Rishi Sunak sent Partygate questionnaire by police
The Independent says Chancellor Rishi Sunak is facing questions from police investigating allegations of lockdown-breaching parties in Whitehall.
Sources close to the chancellor said he had received a questionnaire from the Metropolitan Police asking him to confirm whether he attended the events under investigation and what excuse he had for being there.
The move means that Mr Sunak is effectively being questioned under caution, and could face a fixed penalty fine of £100 or more for breaching Covid regulations.
Mr Sunak was present at an impromptu birthday party arranged for Mr Johnson in No 10’s cabinet room on 19 June 2020.
