Two people were asked to leave a bank holiday party at a Conservative MP’s house amid the coronavirus lockdown, according to reports.
Officers allegedly broke up the gathering and two visitors were requested to leave the house of Rob Roberts, MP for Delyn in north Wales, and balloons and banners were seen outside, reports MirrorOnline.
Supt Mark Pierce, from North Wales Police, told the paper: “In response to two reports of a possible breach of Covid-19 regulations, we visited an address at Ty’n y Coed, Mold, yesterday (Monday, May 25).
“When we called at the property, two people visiting the house left following advice and no further action was taken.”
Mr Roberts tweeted on Tuesday evening to say he was in London at the time of the incident.
A spokesman said: “Rob Roberts was not present at the time. His family have been reminded of the guidelines set out by the Government.”
Mr Roberts is understood to have spent the bank holiday weekend in London and returned to the family home yesterday afternoon.
He has since tweeted that he and his wife "separated six weeks ago when I came out".
Mr Roberts tweeted on Monday morning that he wanted a "proper investigation" of the Dominic Cummings scandal.
He said on Facebook: "Of course it is right that we cannot have one rule for one and another for the rest ... If Mr Cummings has acted inappropriately according to an investigation, then he should go.
"If an investigation concludes that he hasn’t, then he shouldn’t.
"The media doesn’t get to call the shots on who is hired and fired."
