Coronavirus: Police break up 'party' at Tory MP's house
May 27, 2020
A Conservative MP said his family had been reminded of the government's lockdown rules amid reports police broke up a party at his house.
Rob Roberts, who represents Delyn in north Wales, insisted he was not at his Flintshire home but in London.
It comes after he called for an investigation into the actions of Boris Johnson's aide Dominic Cummings who has defended breaking lockdown rules.
Mr Roberts tweeted he was "200 miles away in London" at the time.
The Daily Mirror says two visitors were asked to leave Mr Roberts' house in Mold and the paper claimed it had balloons and banners outside.

Supt Mark Pierce, from North Wales Police, said that officers visited an address in Mold on Monday "in response to two reports of a possible breach of Covid-19 regulations".
"When we called at the property, two people visiting the house left following advice and no further action was taken," added Mr Pierce.
