Boris Johnson’s allies say latest lockdown police referral is ‘political stitch-up’

by www.telegraph.co.uk Leave a Comment

Boris Johnson has been referred to police over fresh allegations of breaking Covid lockdown rules, in a move branded a political “smear” by his allies.

The Metropolitan Police and Thames Valley Police confirmed on Tuesday that they were looking at gatherings Mr Johnson attended – including receiving visitors – in Downing Street and Chequers while prime minister.

It was prompted by the Cabinet Office handing over diary entries that were uncovered by lawyers working on Mr Johnson’s formal submission to the Covid Inquiry .

Cabinet Office sources said that officials were obliged by the civil service code to give the information to the police as they were concerned the entries detailed potential breaches of Covid rules .

‘Political stitch-up’

However, a spokesman for Mr Johnson said the allegations were “totally untrue” and suggested that the claims had been made for a “political purpose”.

Legal options will be considered by the former prime minister after the Government passed the extracts from his diaries to the police without informing him.

The development triggered a fierce reaction as friends of the former prime minister claimed he was being targeted by a “political stitch-up” and a “smear”.

An ally of Mr Johnson said: “This is ridiculous and it is a wilful attempt to misread diary entries in order to make something out of nothing.”

Supporters of the former prime minister noted that Oliver Dowden, the most senior minister in the Cabinet Office, is one of Rishi Sunak’s closest friends in politics .

But Cabinet Office sources said that no minister was involved in the decision, dismissing any accusation of politicking and saying officials were duty-bound to act.

It comes as the Government braces for confirmation that net migration has hit a record high , with projections that the total will be between 700,000 and one million.

The former prime minister’s fall from power last year followed the “partygate” scandal , in which Covid fines were issued over eight events in government buildings. Mr Johnson received one fine.

A linked investigation by the Commons privileges committee into whether Mr Johnson misled MPs over the events continues to overshadow his hopes of a political comeback, with a report expected next month. The committee is understood to have been informed of the police referral.

New Chequers and Downing Street events

Little is known about the gatherings at the heart of the latest development. One source familiar with them said there were a “handful” of events. Another said “more than ten”.

The police confirmed they occurred between June 2020 and May 2021, a period in which the country moved in and out of lockdown.

The Telegraph has been told that one event being looked at was a lunch in the No 10 garden attended by Mr Johnson and his mother Charlotte, who died in September 2021 .

Another, which Whitehall sources vehemently denied was a breach of the rules and said was arranged by Downing Street, is said to have involved Mr Johnson meeting the television presenter Kate Garraway to discuss her husband, who was left in a life-threatening condition after being diagnosed with Covid in March 2020. Full details of the events are not yet public.

Sunak vs Johnson

Enmity has been growing between supporters of Mr Johnson and Mr Sunak about the Tory rebellion last year that led to the former PM’s ousting from Downing Street.

Mr Johnson resigned from office less than 48 hours after Mr Sunak and Sajid Javid, the health secretary at the time, quit his Cabinet. Johnson allies continue to put some blame on Mr Sunak for his demise, a claim waved away by the Prime Minister’s supporters.

Last autumn, Mr Johnson attempted to become prime minister again when Liz Truss resigned, but dropped out after several MPs endorsed Mr Sunak.

A Cabinet Office spokesman said: “Information came to light during the process of preparing evidence for submission to the Covid Inquiry.

“In line with obligations in the civil service code, this material has been passed to the relevant authorities and it is now a matter for them.”

The civil service code states: “In line with the core value of integrity, civil servants must comply with the law and uphold the administration of justice.”

‘Bizarre and unacceptable allegations’

A spokesman for Mr Johnson said: “Some abbreviated entries in Mr Johnson’s official diary were queried by the Cabinet Office during preparation for the Covid Inquiry.

“Following an examination of the entries, Mr Johnson’s lawyers wrote to the Cabinet Office and privileges committee explaining that the events were lawful and were not breaches of any Covid regulations.”

The spokesman added: “The assertion by the Cabinet Office that there have been further Covid rule breaches is totally untrue.

“No contact was made with Mr Johnson before these incorrect allegations were made both to the police and to the privileges committee. This is both bizarre and unacceptable.

“For whatever political purpose, it is plain that a last-ditch attempt is being made to lengthen the privileges committee investigation as it was coming to a conclusion and to undermine Mr Johnson.

“Mr Johnson’s lawyers have tonight written to the police forces involved to explain in detail why the Cabinet Office is entirely wrong in its assertions.

“The events in question were all within the rules either because they were held outdoors or came within another lawful exception. They include regular meetings with civil servants and advisers.

“Many will conclude that this has all the hallmarks of yet another politically motivated stitch up.”

The Metropolitan Police said they were assessing the entries that “relate to potential breaches of the Health Protection Regulations between June 2020 and May 2021 at Downing Street”.

A Thames Valley police spokesman said they were assessing “a report of potential breaches of the Health Protection Regulations between June 2020 and May 2021 at Chequers, Buckinghamshire”.

Novak Djokovic gives ‘completely honest’ update on retirement plans after Rafa Nadal news

by www.express.co.uk Leave a Comment

Rafael Nadal set for 2024 farewell after pulling out of French Open

says his desire to play tennis is still there but he has admitted ‘things can change quickly’. At 36 years old, the Serbian superstar is still capable of producing world-class performances having picked up his 22nd Grand Slam title at the Australian Open in Melbourne earlier this year. But he knows his career is steadily approaching its end point.

With recently announcing his intentions to retire in 2024, Djokovic has admitted he’s had food for thought as the final member of the ‘big three’ left playing, with Roger Federer calling it a day last September. Speaking about his future, Djokovic said at the French Open: “I am being completely honest with you guys.

“I have asked this question also, but it’s not like I think about it all the time. The desire is still there, but things can change quickly – I am 36, I’ve been a pro for 20 years. I don’t like to look at age as a decisive factor, I pay attention to what my general state is like and whether I enjoy it.

“History is on the line, and it’s been like that for more than five years now. Almost any tournament there is something like ’oh, now you can achieve this or break this record’. I think I’ve broken a lot of records, but that still pushes me to keep going.

Djokovic says he still has desire to keep playing

“That is one of the biggest reasons why I keep playing. At this level, I feel you need to set clear goals and to have a path you’ll follow in order to achieve them. That kind of attitude brought me to the place I am now. On the other hand, things change, new kids are coming and we’ll see how long I want to keep pushing.”

Coming into the , Djokovic is among the favourites to take home the title, however, there are concerns about his condition. Since winning the in January, Djokovic was beaten in straight sets by Daniil Medvedev in the Dubai Tennis Championships semi-finals.

He was then forced to miss the Indian Wells Masters and Miami Masters after his US visa application was denied due to his refusal to get a Covid vaccine. Further disappointment followed in Monaco as he was dumped out of the tournament in the third round by Lorenzo Musetti.

After that the Serb suffered back-to-back quarter-final losses at the Banja Luka Open and Italian Open to fellow countryman Dusan Lajovic and world No 6 Hulgar Rune. Yet Djokovic remains fairly upbeat about his recent decline in form and reminded assembled media that he always ‘peaks’ at Roland Garros, where he is a two-time champion.

    Ellie Goulding – who wore a black armoured corset that featured a moulded pair of breasts – was left stunned when Tom commented on her chest.

    He looked down at her outfit and said: “I love what you’re doing – they’re your real boobs?”

    Viewers were horrified by Tom’s comment and raced to Twitter to slam him for being “inappropriate”.

    One annoyed fan wrote: “Did Tom Grennan actually ask Ellie Goulding about her tits on TV? Really? What year are we in?”

    A second agreed and added: “Tom Grennan really thought it was cool to chat about Ellie Goulding’s boobs? Nah, I thought we were past this.”

    As ya do.

    A source said: “Sam’s performance might have appeared seamless but behind-the-scenes it was a nightmare.

    An onlooker at the bash, at 180 The Strand, said: “It’s official, Lewis is in love and he couldn’t be happier.

    “He has been dating Ellie for some time now and while they are usually very low key, he couldn’t keep his hands off her at the after-party.

    “It was very sweet to see him so happy, and Ellie clearly adores him too.

    “They sat on the sofa kissing and talking for a while before Lewis headed off to the dance floor.

    “He was throwing some serious shapes to Hot Chocolate’s You Sexy Thing at one point while Ellie just looked on smiling. They make a lovely couple.”
