In December 2020, Conservative activists were filmed attending a “Jingle and Mingle” Christmas party at the Conservative party headquarters in London, in violation of then-active Tier-2 Covid restrictions.

Shaun Bailey, who subsequently received a peerage, had hosted this event during his unsuccessful campaign for Mayor of London; footage reveals attendees dancing and socializing indoors, with one attendee suggesting it was alright to film provided they didn’t broadcast their rule-breaking.

While initially no action was taken against the attendees, including Bailey, the police are now reassessing the situation based on newly provided video footage.
