Twenty fines recommended over No 10 lockdown parties
The police have been investigating 12 events that may have breached coronavirus lockdown rules, including at least three attended by Boris Johnson.
There are though Conservative who are deeply uncomfortable with the idea of lockdown parties while everyone else was being told not to mix. They will be watching to see who is fined - and how Downing Street reacts. "The culture is set from the very top. The buck stops with the prime minister, who spent months lying to the British public, which is why he's got to go."
Each of the Metropolitan Police's 20 decisions to issue FPNs in relation to "partygate" now goes to Acro, the criminal records office for England and Wales. Challenging an FPN is complicated and has been much criticised as opaque and potentially unfair by expert lawyers.The alternative is to argue it out in court. But that is expensive - and losing leads to a criminal conviction as it's a criminal court ruling. And that's why most people faced with an FPN suck it up - and cough up.
