One picture shows Boris Johnson drinking wine with numerous people on a terrace.
It was recorded in May 2020 when there was a strict contact restriction.
Angry citizens share on Twitter what they did or couldn’t do at the time.
A picture is currently making the British white-hot. It shows the British Prime Minister on the terrace of his official residence with his wife Carrie and several other people. It seems to be a nice round with some glasses of wine and snacks, writes “Daily Mail”. Around 17 people sit together in three groups. Especially the date on which it was recorded, May 15, 2020, causes anger and incomprehension among the population.
At that time, the population was not allowed to meet with more than one other person. Hundreds of people have already posted photos on Twitter of how they spent May 15 and the sacrifices they had made in order to comply with the rules. While, as it appears from the photo, Boris Johnson was having a garden party with plenty of alcohol.
“It would be against the rules …”
Stephen Laughton posts a photo of his mother, it should be the last one that shows her alive. “We went for a walk and when she suggested they sit in her garden, I said it wasn’t a good idea. It would be against the rules, ”he writes about the picture.
The doctor, Dr. Ajay Verma writes about his post: «On Friday, May 15, 2020 at 1 p.m. we observed a minute’s silence on our ward (and in the entire hospital) to commemorate those who died of Covid – we did not know that the Prime Minister and his Friends enjoyed a garden party at the same time. “
A nurse shares a picture of herself from the month of last year showing her tired and exhausted. “I have no words for how I feel when I see Boris and his cheese and wine party that took place at the same time,” she writes on Twitter.
Heart is broken
A mother shares the picture of her son who is standing on a box under his grandmother’s window to see her: «My son saw his granddaughter through a window. Otherwise they cuddled every day. My heart is broken », said the woman concerned.
Many people write that they could not attend funerals of grandmothers, fathers and mother-in-law because they followed the rules. One user writes: “The picture is like a slap in the face.”
Work instead of partying
From the official side it is said that this was not a social get-together or a garden party. Instead, they were all employees who met in the afternoon and evening to work. Deputy Prime Minister Dominic Raab said the picture only shows people having a drink after a busy day. Despite this statement, the inclusion enrages the citizens.
