From 'BYOB' to cheese and wine in the No 10 garden, the list of alleged government lockdown-busting parties continues to grow.

Boris Johnson, his wife Carrie, former chief adviser Dominic Cummings, and Mr Johnson's principal private secretary, Martin Reynolds, were all pictured, in a photograph leaked to The Guardian, sitting around a table in the No 10 garden, with wine and cheese in front of them.
Some 15 other people were also in the photograph, but the Prime Minister has insisted this was a work meeting, saying: "Those were meetings of people at work, talking about work."
The revelation came in an email, leaked to ITV, from Mr Reynolds to more than 100 Downing Street employees inviting them to 'bring your own booze' for an evening gathering.
A witness said: "There were 40 people in the garden, including Boris and Carrie.
