The Prime Minister’s staff held regular parties, which he called “Wine Fridays” during the British-imposed lockdown, and Prime Minister Boris Johnson attended, encouraging workers to “spend”, according to the Mirror.
These gatherings were so popular that staff invested 2 142 to buy a beverage cooler to keep the wines and beers cool.
According to the newspaper, the employees went with a suitcase to a supermarket to buy drinks in anticipation of their gathering, on the eve of the funeral of Prince Philip, and this did not happen only that time. Sources cited by the British tabloid reported that Downing Street workers went alternately on Fridays to the local Tesco Metro supermarket, with a suitcase on wheels, to fill their fridge with drinks.
The Mirror writes that Johnson attended “some” such parties, when indoor gatherings were banned as part of measures to deal with the pandemic.
Labor secures 10% lead over Conservative Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who is in the throes of a scandal
The scandal, in which the British Prime Minister Boris Johnson is in the whirlpool, focusing on his behavior during the anti-coronation looting, helped the opposition Labor to secure a 10 percentage point lead over the ruling Conservatives, published in a new Conservative today.
Poll company Savanta ComRes reported that in a survey of 2,151 adults conducted yesterday and today, the Labor Party increased its share by 5% to 42% of the vote, while the Conservatives lost a percentage point and are at 32%. As he points out, this is the largest share of Labor votes since 2013.
