it's a remarkable time for the metropolitan police force. l for the metropolitan police force.wn initially, they did not want to get involved in this. great monster investigation and passed information to the mat and passed information to the mat and sue and 15 referrals for fixed penalty notices have been issued to the criminal office is maintaining every effort to process this investigation and continue to assess significant amounts of investigative materials potentially, this could have a long way to run and we do not know how many more finds will be issued we do not yet know the sums involved. interesting that the last hour or so, we did have a confirmed that the fly which the prime minister will be receiving does relate to a birthday event on the 19th ofjune 2020. number two this afternoon confirmed that they have been told by the metropolitan police that the prime minister was being fined because he attended in two or more people between two and 3pm on the 19th of june. we also know that two other events that police are investigating that the prime minister was believed t

today, i have received a fixed penalty notice from the metropolitan police relating to an eventin metropolitano an event in downing street on the 19th ofjune 2020. and let me say immediately that i have paid the fine and i once again offer a full apology. and in the spirit of openness and humility, i want to be completely clear about what happened on that date. my day began shortly after 7am and i chaired eight meetings in number ten including the cabinet committee deciding covid strategy. i visited a school in hemel hempstead which took me out of downing street for over four hours. in amongst all of these engagements on the day they happen to be my birthday there was a brief gathering in the cabinet room shortly after tpm, lasting for less than ten minutes. during which people i work with kindly passed on their good wishes. —— shortly after tpm. and i have to say, nor frankness, at that time it did not occur to me that this might have been a breach of the rules. but of course the police have found otherwise and ifully rules. but of course the police have found otherwise and i fully respect th

news coming in from the metropolitan police _ year. the| metropolitan police about party gait, saying they will not be issuing any more updates over the investigation into parties in downing street and elsewhere in whitehall until after the local elections in may. the investigation will continue during that time, says the met. fines could in theory be issued, but due to the restrictions over communications in the run—up to those local elections, the met will not issue any of these to the media. so just to recap there, whilst the investigation will continue during the pre—election period, says the metropolitan police, due to restrictions around communicating before the may local elections, we will not provide further updates until after the 5th of may. nothing more on those party gait investigations until after the 5th of may. steve baker, a conservative mp for wycombe and a member of the european research group says he's lost his confidence in the prime minister. i'm afraid i'm now in a position where i have to acknowledge that if the

fixed metropolitan police to say that's anotherfixed penalty metropolitan police to say that's anothernt increases for the number of offences that are committed by individuals, if he receives four fines, the cost of each one should start to grow. it's going to be incredibly difficult for downing street because their position has been the rules or reprint —— broken, but it wasjust been the rules or reprint —— broken, but it was just nine minutes. it's much harder to explain some of these other gatherings, and you have to bearin other gatherings, and you have to bear in mind that nobody was allowed to gather with friends or family, or even be with dying loved ones. even ifjust even be with dying loved ones. even if just for even be with dying loved ones. even ifjust for nine minutes. the pressure really is going to ratchet up pressure really is going to ratchet up quite slowly, because the police hasn't put a firm date yet on when it's going to put an estimation. latte it's going to put an estimation. we not that it's going to put an estimation. we got that local election coming up. yes,

the metropolitan police have been involved in this wider investigation over the last few years.ow that's going to work. and remember, the timing here is really important because in the next few days, it will be 15 years since madeleine mccann was last seen on this beach, since she disappeared here in praia da luz. and 15 years is a really important point here in portugal. after then, it's really difficult for somebody to be made an official suspect, orarguido, in a case like this. so by doing this now, the portuguese authorities have more room in the weeks, months, maybe years going forwards, they have more options. madeleine's parents issued a statement last night. kate and gerry mccann, they said that they welcomed this development, that they saw it potentially as progress. but they know that the people can be made a suspect and then that can be withdrawn. it happened to them years ago. so they pointed out that this man has not been charged with anything. we know that previously he's denied any involvement. i think one of the most moving things they said in their statement is

the metropolitan police has been sending these fines.eet, but it seems that the metropolitan police have concluded something different, and what we seem to be getting now is a few question marks over the prime minister and whether he misled the house of commons. that is a convention, if you mislead the house, ministers in the past have resigned, and now the question marks over the prime minister and whether he misled the house or not. the brexit opportunities ministerjacob rees—mogg has insisted today that the prime minister did not, that the prime minister was given wrong information and that he made no deliberate effort to mislead anybody. the welsh secretary simon hart has said today that people have moved on from this, from the kind of saga of partygate, and doesn't think the prime minister should resign. that is in stark contrast to the labour leader sir keir starmer, who think the prime minister is unfit to hold office, and wants him to come to the house of commons and explain himself. downing street have said that the prime minist
