At a leaving do for a No 10 official on June 18 2020 – when social gatherings of two or more people indoors were banned – she attended for part of the evening and provided a karaoke machine. “I am certain that there are hundreds of civil servants and potentially ministers who in retrospect think they were the wrong side of that line,” she told the UK Covid-19 Inquiry.
“Actually, I would find it hard to pick one day when the regulations were followed properly inside that building,” she said.
