'I get it and I will fix it': Boris Johnson responds to Sue Gray report
Guardian, 31 Jan 2022
Prime Minister Boris Johnson addressed parliament on Monday following the publication of Sue Gray's report into whether parties at No.10 during lockdown broke lockdown rules. 'I get it and I will fix,' Johnson said of the report's criticism of complex leadership structures within No.10. The findings were released on the government’s website in a shortened and redacted form, after the Met last week said it was investigating some of the gatherings.
Gray, a senior civil servant, criticised the culture in Johnson’s Downing Street that allowed social gatherings to take place during lockdown, which were “difficult to justify”. A party in Boris and Carrie Johnson’s flat is one of 12 events being investigated by the Metropolitan police over alleged lockdown breaches
