Who is Sue Gray? - BBC News

Sue Gray’s name has been in the headlines all week and the subject of several Prime Minister's Questions in Parliament.

Her report into lockdown parties at Downing Street has just been handed handed to UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson, ahead of expected publication.

But who is she and what do we know about her?

People are always asking "who is Sue Gray?", but nobody ever asks "how is Sue Gray?".

[tobiwan]

She‘s investigating her boss‘s boss. Surely that‘s not what an independent investigation looks like.

[GroundhogRoy]

Only Boris would need someone to investigate whether he was at a string of parties or not 🙄

[ahauser]

Listening to Johnson & his party excuses is sickening.
Should lead by example but it seems there was one rule for the public and a different one for no 10

[KingKong]

She can’t grass up her own people, the Police need to be involved but sadly we can’t trust them too. Corruption is live and well here in Great Britain

[julio]

we want the police investigation NOT THE PAID OFF ONE

[guyfawkes]

Sue Gray is a freaking hero.... I would aspire to be like her if I didn't die centuries ago

[davelowe]

She's independent enough that the legacy media will swallow the idea, but not independent enough to gain the public's respect. Business as usual in not-quite-corrupt modern Britain.

Who WAS Sue Gray ? She provided the Karaoke machine for the No.10 parties.
She ran a pub and worked with and had some good mates at MI5.

Could ask many questions but the one we want answered is where the report on Johnsons parties who attended, how many parties, why did London Met provide Security on the door for these parties.

[nimmichagger]

So you get your mate and employee to investigate your crimes, and think it’ll be impartial, fair and robust? What a waste of time. They really must think we’re a bunch of sheep who’ll fall for anything - oh, wait..

Sue Gray is the only pensioner better off under Labour.”

[Mr.Armandolu]

She's investigating her own boss? I bet that's really unbiased and undeterred right?

[alexanderromanov]

Sue told me, "If I tell the truth I won't get a peerage and if I do tell the truth the police will bang me up for 51 weeks, that's why I'm saying nothing", I told her the bookies aren't giving anything for a whitewash, she said "I got my bet fixed when they didn't know that"

[moomin]

Who is Sue Gray? A hypocrite, that's what.

[NIObserver]

Left a cushy job in London civil service to Troubles ravaged Ireland to run a pub in Newry in 1980s?? Doesn't reek of suspicion at all...

[georgebush]

Another con artist like all in parliment

[FoodwaysDistribution]

How come boris is her boss. Civil servants work for the crown.

[bishopwhite]

We will know who she is by her report.
Either she will be honest or corrupt.
The truth is already apparent.

More waffling from the ministry of propaganda
