Partygate: Sue Gray will be delivering the report in the next few hours

(ANSA) – ROME, JANUARY 29 – Sue Gray should deliver her report on the ‘partygate’ in Downing Street in the next few hours without waiting for the conclusion of the police investigation. The BBC has learned.

The Metropolitan Police yesterday asked the senior official who carried out the internal investigation on the parties under accusation in the institutional offices to make “minimal references” to precisely those events on which the attention of the detectives is focused to understand if they have been violated or minus the anti-Covid regulations in force. This is to “avoid any prejudice to our investigation”. Police said they did not ask Gray to delay the release of the report. But it is likely that what will be delivered and then published before the Met investigation is concluded may be a sweetened version, without elements that would be highly damaging to the conservative Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who ended up at the center of the scandal.
