Dominic Cummings

A Downing Street source told Politics Editor Robert Peston he sent an email to Martin Reynolds on 20 May 2020 telling him a planned party should not go ahead

Mr Cummings, who worked in No10 until November 2020, alleged the PM knew a “bring your own booze” gathering held in May 2020 would breach the rules.

Downing Street said Boris Johnson 'abides' to the ministerial code which says ministers should resign if they knowingly mislead parliament, but denies he did.
