  2. > Officials working in No 10 claim they have held back information from Sue Gray’s investigation into the partygate scandal due to a “culture of fear” surrounding the probe.

    If I speak I’m in big trouble!

  3. Frightened of the consequences of their actions?

    Sounds like they aren’t used to being held accountable

  4. I’d like to think that if I were in that position, I’d have both the moral character and courage to retain copies, but honestly I would be too scared of committing suicide by suitcase in my bathtub.

  5. I guess it all depends on how you frame your questions…

    “Did you party at No. 10 during lockdown?”

    “No”

    “”Did someone tell you you’d be sacked if you said there were any parties at No. 10 during lockdown?”

    “Yes”
