LONDON - The British Prime Minister Boris Johnson drank alcohol with aides at a leaving party in November 2020 while Britain was under Covid lockdown, leaked photographs show.

ITV News obtained four pictures showing the Prime Minister with a glass in his hand as he stood by a table littered with bottles of wine.

The second national lockdown had been imposed on the nation eight days before the gathering. Angela Rayner, deputy leader of the Labour Party, said the images mean there is "no doubt" that he lied when he said he was unaware of rule-breaking in No 10 during the pandemic.

Boris Johnson may have thought the publication of the Sue Gray report was the biggest headache he faced this week, but the leaked pictures of him raising a glass under Covid restrictions may prove worse.
