Prime Minister Boris Johnson and chancellor Rishi Sunak will both be receiving fines for breaching Covid-19 lockdown rules.
Police have also confirmed there would be at least another 30 fines issued for people who attended gatherings in Downing Street in breach of strict coronavirus lockdown rules on top of the 20 issued last month.
The Met Police said: “As of Tuesday, 12 April 2022 we have made over 50 referrals for fixed penalty notices (FPN) to the ACRO Criminal Records Office for breaches of COVID-19 regulations who following the referral issue the FPNs to the individual.”
A No.10 spokesman said: “The prime minister and the chancellor of the exchequer have today received notification that the Metropolitan Police intend to issue them with fixed penalty notices.
“We have no further details, but we will update you again when we do.”
Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer has called for both politicians to resign, saying they have “broken the law and repeatedly lied to the British public”.
The prime minister’s wife, Carrie Johnson, is also reportedly to be fined over covid lockdown parties at Downing Street.
