"I would like those who were there to be cautioned and fined like we were. It is one rule for them and one rule for us. It is not fair." Keiron McArdle. Prime Minister Boris Johnson made a public apology in parliament for attending a party during lockdown on 20 May 2020, Cabinet ministers have pledged their support for Boris Johnson, as he faces calls to resign. Kieron MCcardle from Coleshill was fined £100 during lockdown for meeting friends in his garden, before restrictions were eased in March last year. Although he did break the law and accepted the fine at the time, he was living on his own and just wanted some company and says it's simply just not fair.
