Force says not enough evidence to ‘disprove the version of events provided by attendees’ at London gathering
The Metropolitan police took no action over an apparent Christmas party at the Conservative headquarters in London during lockdown in 2020 attended by Shaun Bailey, then the party’s candidate for London mayor, it has emerged.
In a statement, the force said that despite a much-published photograph showing Bailey amid a crowd of seeming revellers, some holding drinks and standing next to a buffet, there was not enough evidence to “disprove the version of events provided by attendees”.
