People who've lost family members to coronavirus say they're 'angry beyond words' at footage which appears to show Downing Street staff laughing about a Christmas party held at Number 10 last year
It would've been banned under Covid restrictions at the time.
In a recording obtained by ITV News, aides mocked up a news conference dismissing it as a 'business meeting'.
Boris Johnson will likely face questions on it later.
Twickenham Lib Dem MP Munira Wilson says number 10 are “taking the public for fools”.
Tooting Labour MP Dr Rosena Allin-Khan says “frontline workers weren’t given proper PPE and paid with their lives to save us” while it was going on.
It's been revealed the ex-education secretary held one of his own, too.
The Mirror reports Gavin Williamson hosted an event for staff just before Christmas, at a time of strict Covid restrictions.
A spokesperson's confirmed it happened, calling it 'unfortunate.'
