British government apologizes to Queen Elizabeth – Roya News English

The British government apologized Friday to Queen Elizabeth II for hosting a party on the eve of her husband Philip's funeral, while the country was under lockdown measures.

A spokesman for Boris Johnson leader said: "It is very unfortunate that this is happening at a time of national mourning and 10 Downing Street has apologized to the palace."

The letter addressed to the 95-year-old queen was sent by phone through official channels, though Johnson did not send it personally, as he is under increasing calls to resign after a series of similar allegations.
