Sue Gray is the UK’s most talked-about woman right now, but who is she?
Sue Gray is a senior cabinet office employee who works for the government and has been tasked with investigating allegations of parties held at Downing Street whilst the UK was in lockdown due to Covid-19.
MPs and the public have been calling for the PM’s resignation since the parties – some of which he attended and was aware of – came to light. The PM has apologised for the parties but urged MPs to wait for the Sue Gray inquiry into the alleged law-breaking parties, which is expected to be published later this week.
The parties were held at a time when parties were banned and you couldn’t see your friends or families and loved ones were dying alone in hospitals.
The papers describe Sue Gray in different ways – some highlighting her former job as a pub landlord, whilst others focus on her reported character. The Guardian is amongst the papers that highlight fears the report will not be published in full and others question how fair the report will be.
