Sue Gray Has Email Warning About B Y O B Party
A senior Downing Street official warned that the drinks party broke the rules and should not go ahead.
The Prime Minister claims he received no warning.
Sue Grey has ‘obtained’ the incriminating email. Coincidently she interviewed Dominic Cummings yesterday as part of her investigation. Someone has let it be known that she now has the email.
Does she ignore/ downplay the info? Or throw Boris under the bus?

Danny - from a BBC article about Sue Gray :
"In 2015, as the government's director general of its propriety and ethics team, she was described as "the most powerful person you've never heard of".
It was also reported that she had advised staff on how to destroy emails with a "double-deletion" to stop information becoming public through Freedom of Information requests."

The NEW email isn’t publicly available. It is private correspondence between No.10 employees. Sue Gray has it, so no point in the media risking breaking the data protection or Official Secret acts. They may not have it, but know of its contents.

From The Spectator (hardly a lefty rag) - more on Sue Gray's inclination to bury the evidence ...
"Yet Gray has her critics and is by no means infallible. Journalist Chris Cook has criticised the lack of transparency in how she operates, noting her enthusiasm for concealing document trails and advising special advisers on how to destroy emails by 'double deletion' to thwart Freedom of Information requests. While at the Cabinet Office she kept no log of why, how or when she destroys documents (contrary to official guidance)"
