A full house, employees sitting on each other’s laps, and the next day, piles of empty bottles and garbage cans to be emptied. The reports are from employees of 10 Downing Street to the BBC, telling for the first time what they saw during the parties held in confinement and also in the following days.

Arriving at work to find full rubbish bins and bottles scattered around British Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s official residence when Britons were forced to stay home was not an isolated case. The parties were repeated and the stories of those who were there, only now known and anonymous, describe a great physical closeness between the participants.
Some of the parties lasted so long into the night that there were even several employees who chose not even to go home between work days, spending the whole night in Downing Street, to continue working the next day, according to reports heard by the BBC. .
In recent days, unpublished photographs have been released showing the Prime Minister himself toasting at a farewell party for the former Downing Street communication director.
The photos have put even more pressure on Boris Johnson, at a time when an independent report on parties at the official residence during confinement is expected.
The London Metropolitan Police has had access to some of the conclusions of this report to apply 126 fines, with Boris Johnson having to pay only one so far.
