A British government minister has been criticised for suggesting that Prime Minister Boris Johnson being fined for attending lockdown-breaching parties in Downing Street was akin to former ministers receiving speeding tickets.
Johnson, his wife Carrie, and Chancellor Rishi Sunak were issued “fixed penalty notices” by the Metropolitan Police last week for attending a birthday gathering for the prime minister in Number 10 Downing Street in June 2020, in violation of lockdown restrictions during the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus pandemic.
