An internal investigation into the parties at the British Prime Minister's residence in Downing Street is likely to conclude that they were not criminal. It is reported by the Times, citing sources.

The publication claims that Cabinet Secretary Sue Gray, who heads the audit, will therefore not turn over the case to the police for further investigation.

The publication suggests that the inspector will limit herself to reproaching Johnson for lack of prudence, and also criticize the work culture on Downing Street, which blurs the line between work and informal communication.

Earlier, the London police refused to investigate the case of Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who took part in illegal parties during a nationwide lockdown.

Parties by Britain's political elite have been held several times during the COVID-19 pandemic. In particular, public outrage was caused by the recent publication of an invitation to a party that took place in May 2020. It was sent an hour after the ban on citizens of the country to gather more than two by two. It invited guests to "enjoy the beautiful weather" and urged them to bring their own drinks.
