The Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Boris Johnson, and the British Minister of Finance, Rishi Sonek, have been notified by the country's police that they will be fined for violating the Corona's directives as part of the party's party at Prime Minister Johnson's office.
"The Prime Minister and the Minister of Finance received messages today from the metropolitan police that the police intend to impose the punishment prescribed by law on them," the spokesman said in an official address to the media.
No further information will be received on the case and what the amount of the fine will be.
Earlier this month, 20 people involved in the affair were fined, as part of which Johnson's office held a series of staff parties, attended by the prime minister himself, at the prime minister's official residence at 10 Downing Street in London.
This is a series of 12 events in which participants were asked to "bring your alcohol".
The fines are not tantamount to a criminal conviction and should not prevent the prime minister from continuing to rule legally,
Several MPs from Johnson's party have called for his resignation following the affair, which has sparked much outrage in the kingdom, but some of them have since returned to them since the outbreak of the war in Ukraine.
Opposition groups called for Johnson to resign immediately.
Labor Party Chairman Kear Starmer said in a statement that: "Boris Johnson and Rishi Sonek have repeatedly broken the law and lied to the British public.
Both must resign immediately. "
