Despite British Prime Minister Boris Johnson's vehement denials that he did not violate the Corona closure when he took part in a Christmas quiz held at his official residence in December 2020, the Daily Mirror released documentation allegedly showing that he grossly violated the event because he was not at the table and was in battle. An open bottle of an intoxicating drink.

The photo, tweeted by the British newspaper, shows Johnson standing next to a computer stand near two other people dressed in a festive style, with a Santa Claus hat and other decorations, as well as a bottle that looks like champagne and light refreshments.

As you may recall, Johnson may have already admitted to attending the event, but stressed at the time that it was a virtual quiz and in fact was no different from a regular office job.
But now it seems that the crowding of people in his position, and the food served, violated some clauses of the severe closure that was in effect at the time on England, which banned gatherings of more than two people who did not live together.
The official guidelines explicitly state that "Christmas meals or parties should not be held in the workplace."
As you may recall, in recent weeks more records of Johnson's various violations over the past two years have been received over a number of closures.
Among other things, a picture was sent of Johnson holding a can of beer at a gala event he held in his cabinet meeting room at the official residence during the closure.
