Here's a news report from 12th December:
COVID-19: Boris Johnson accused of 'treating public as fools' as photo of Downing Street quiz emerges | Politics News | Sky News

That report includes a quote from Nadhim Zahawi:
"Sitting in his office are the two people who are closest working with him, no alcohol on the table, not drinking, on a Zoom call or a Teams call, a virtual call respecting the lockdown rules."

So, the new photo undermines the previous defence.

Aha, thanks for that. But the lockdown rules in England make no mention of alcohol - ulike other countries who actually banned selling the stuff. Can you imagine...?!

Looks like a bottle of Veuve Clicquot, I am so shocked - they are not drinking great English sparkling wines such as Nyetimber?

It was all just a little misunderstanding - support bubbles were in relation to the Champagne!
