Keir Starmer and Angela Rayner won’t be fined and face no further action over Beergate, Durham police confirm
Police launched an inquiry into a campaign event held at a Labour MP's office in April last year when some pandemic rules were still in place.
A Labour Party spokeswoman said: "Keir Starmer and Angela Rayner have always been clear that no rules were broken in Durham. Sir Keir maintained throughout that the gathering was merely a break during campaigning for a local election, with activists stopping to eat and drink. "That investigation has now concluded. A substantial amount of documentary and witness evidence was obtained which identified the 17 participants and their activities during that gathering.
