'Treat us all the same': Woman, 35, who held a lockdown-busting memorial in November 2020 before being retrospectively fined £10,000 by Durham police demands Keir Starmer faces punishment over 'Beergate'
A woman given a retrospective £10,000 fine by Durham police for organising a balloon-releasing memorial during the pandemic says Sir Keir Starmer should also be hit with a financial penalty if he is found to have broken Covid rules.
Vicki Hutchinson voiced fury at photographs of the Labour leader swigging beer and chatting to party officials during a visit to Durham last April and urged police to 'treat us all the same'.
The 35-year-old, from Peterlee in County Durham, organised her event in a field in November 2020 as a tribute to her father-in-law Ian Stephenson, a former miner who died from Covid-19.
