Sue Gray report: No 10 apologies for misleading journalists over Partygate
Asked how he could be trusted, the spokesman said: "There were failures in both what happened and how that was handled subsequently."There were times when we were limited in what we could say, and times when we didn't have a full understanding of what took place."He would also not comment on whether anyone in the press office had offered to resign.
On December 18 of that year, the press office had a "secret Santa party" where some staff drank "excessively", according to the report. A cleaner who came in the following morning found red wine had been spilled on the wall. No 10 has said the press office's so-called Wine Time Fridays have been banned under new guidelines which state that "excessive" alcohol consumption in the office is not appropriate.
The report also said staff pooled their money to buy a fridge for the office to enjoy "chilled WTF ".When allegations of rule-breaking in Downing Street first emerged, the prime minister insisted all the guidelines had been observed.
