As per news report of BBC, No 10 confirmed that the prime minister had been contacted by the police and said he would "respond as required". Police are sending the questionnaire by email to more than 50 people. The Met has said the questionnaires will ask what happened and "must be answered truthfully". The force said on Wednesday its email must be responded to within seven days - and the documents ask for an "account and explanation of the recipient's participation in an event". But being contacted does not mean a fine would always be issued, the Met added.
