1/. In May, when we could only meet one person, the PM was drinking in the No.10 garden

When our Christmases were cancelled they we’re having parties

On 5/3/20, when the PM was saying “one theory is we could #TakeItOnTheChin” the 1st Briton died of #COVID19

2/. Around the table with @BorisJohnson are:

👉Dominic Cummings, with a glass of wine, one week before the #BarnardCastle story broke

👉Andrew Reynolds, the guy who’s investigating whether anyone in No.10 broke #COVID19 rules by attending parties

👉Carrie Symonds with the baby

3/. “You can meet one other person from outside your household in an outdoor, public place. But please keep 2 metres apart. Please stick with the rules & don’t take risks”

@MattHancock, 15 May 2020, the same day as the #DowningStParty & 2 days after the #CareHomeScandal broke👇

4. “There were no parties”

“There may or may not have been parties but I'm assured by people who attended the parties that no rules were broken”

“There were parties but no rules were broken”

“If the press ask, we say the parties were work meetings”

“They were work meetings”👇

5/. Some people are suggesting that #CarrieSymonds appears to be holding a cat or a lynx rather than a baby! @Number10cat #BorisJohnson #No10party #COVID19
