10 Downing Street on January 6, 2021. Picture: REUTERS/John SibleyBritish Prime Minister Boris Johnson faced a backlash on Wednesday after a video surfaced showing his staff laughing and joking over how to explain a gathering in Downing Street during a Christmas Covid-19 lockdown in 2020, when such festivities were banned.
In the video, a Johnson adviser asks Stratton: “I've just seen reports on Twitter that there was a Downing Street Christmas party on Friday night — do you recognise those reports?” At the time of the Downing Street gathering, tens of millions of people across Britain were banned from meeting close family and friends for a traditional Christmas celebration — or even from bidding farewell to dying relatives.
“A sick joke,” read the banner headline on the Daily Mail, Britain's biggest selling newspaper. “No 10 Party Clowns” said Metro. The Guardian said: “PM accused of lying after No 10 team filmed joking about party.”
