Housing Secretary Michael Gove Apologizes for Tory Activists' Christmas Party During Lockdown

The video, published by the Mirror, shows workers drinking and dancing at an event in London in December that year, which was organised by the campaign team for Shaun Bailey, who was running for London mayor at the time.

The event took place while London was under Tier 2 Covid restrictions, when people were banned from socialising indoors, except with members of their household or a support bubble.

The Metropolitan Police are considering the footage.

Gove said that two Tories at the gathering recently given honours by Boris Johnson should not be stripped of them.
