The UK public are awaiting a report by top civil servant Sue Gray who is investigating a string of alleged parties between May 2020 and April 2021 - including a garden party in Downing Street.
Cabinet Secretary Simon Case was the one compiling the report previously however after it emerged that he had held a party in his own office, the 64-year-old civil servant had to take over.
Regardless of the findings, Sue Gray cannot say whether the PM broke the law as this is a matter for the Met who issued a statement today (January 27) asking for "minimal reference" in the report to events they are investigating to avoid prejudicing its inquiries.
Additionally, she cannot state whether he broke the Ministerial Code - as this is for a watchdog to decide.
However whilst tensions are high and everyone clicks the refresh button in the hopes of being able to see what is written in the papers, one celebrity perhaps didn't realise how far one of his jokes would go.
Comedian Joe Lycett is now said to have apparently sparked panic in Parliament after tweeting what many - including MPs - thought was part of Sue Gray's 'leaked report' into the Downing Street parties.
The comedian shared the post to his social media accounts and now has over 90,000 interactions on Twitter alone.
Joe's initial tweet read: "BREAKING: Leaked Sue Gray report reveals shocking abuse of the rules. Hard to see how the PM can cling on after this."
After releasing the fake report, an alleged "verified source" who works for a cabinet minister said that Lycett caused panic.
The source wrote: "I work in Parliament for the Conservatives and I think u need to know.
"Your tweet this morning was read as an actual serious leak from Sue Gray's report.
"U had MP staff literally running around panicking from what it said.
"Panic dialling MPs like we need to discuss this right now."
In the fake report, a series of allegations were made however the golden ticket seemed to be the party phrases.
The fake document stated that WhatsApp groups were called "Definitely A Meeting" and "Down It Street" to discuss parties and the anonymous political source then stated the MPs "couldn't believe" Sue Gray used 'Down It Street" adding: "Absolutely legendary work well done."
The document soon became known as a prank after people spotted Sue Gray's email was referenced as "ItsAllSueGravyBaby@aol.com."
A number of Twitter users said they were initially fooled by the fake photo however later the comedian took to Twitter to address the prank, which sparked a lot of emotion, and why he decided to write a fake document.
He wrote: "Well it's been an odd couple of days. I catfished (sort of accidentally) Nadine Dorries and then supposedly catfished (sort of accidentally) the whole government. I wrote some jokes on twitter, some dumb people (some in our government) found them plausible rather than funny and now I'm in most of the newspapers.
"I write comedy sometimes as a way of using anger. I write a daft letter about a parking fine or change my name to Hugo Boss or fake a Sue Gray report, all essentially because I'm angry. I'm angry right now probably for the same reason many other people are angry. In the early stages of lockdown in 2020 my best friend died from cancer. He was the person who had been with me through my journey in comedy the most closely; he had been to the smallest pub gigs all the way up to the Apollo and when I was first on Graham Norton. He had been ill for a number of years and towards the end I had helped as a part time carer.
"I watched him slip away, gradually, over months, and all that comes with it. It's a long story for another time. But he died, at the start of lockdown, and I wasn't there because I was following the rules, and we had a tiny insufficient funeral, because we were following the rules, and I drove his kids away from that funeral back to Birmingham without any sort of wake, because we were following the rules, and it felt unnatural and cruel and almost silly, but we did it because we followed the rules.
"So I suppose like thousands of others with their own stories, I'm angry about that. I'm not a political comic particularly and rarely if ever make outwardly political statements. And though I've never voted for the Tories (huge surprise) I'm not in the business of trashing them for the sake of it either. In the old days the conservatives were literally about 'conserving'.
"They believed in historical institutions and traditions, promoted incremental change and cautious progress. For a somewhat lefty w****r like me that of course conflicted with my beliefs about gay marriage, the treatment of women and minorities, but I respected their approach in other areas and found some of their policies and ideology to be stable and reassuring.
"This lot don't seem to be into that. They're about power and little else. They torch traditions and institutions with ease if it helps them retain their grip. To hell with my dead friend, they think, and all your dead friends and dead relatives. You followed the rules and we didn't but we're in power and that's all that matters so spin on it.
"So I get angry and I write a few jokes about Sue Gray's report, a report which will probably change nothing and we'll all be here again in the not too distant future, in some other scandal, with some other liars. But for now you might wonder how it feels to have been described in the papers as having caused these people 'chaos' and 'mayhem' and 'mass panic' because of a few jokes, Let me be clear: it feels absolutely f*****g fantastic."
