British Prime Minister Boris Johnson mocked a theater official's request to wear a muzzle, while he was watching the play "Macbeth" by the English playwright Shakespeare, in a crowded theater located in north London, last Monday evening, according to witnesses.

One of the attendees, who was sitting close to him, said that Johnson did not put a mask on his face while he was in the theater, although the theater administration asked all attendees to wear a mask at all times, except for eating or drinking times. But Johnson was photographed inside a public area of ​​the theater without wearing a muzzle, while he was accompanied by someone he believed to be from the family.

Entrance tickets were sent via e-mail, and it was written, "Remember to wear a face mask all the time you are inside the theater." There is a message on the theater’s website asking all its goers to wear a mask, to protect “theatre employees, actors, and viewers from the Corona virus,” and there is also an advertisement and signs throughout the theater asking everyone to wear a mask. All visitors complied with these regulations, with the exception of the Prime Minister, who had removed the mask from his face. According to a visitor to the theater. A woman who was sitting near him said that she saw him never wearing a mask throughout the first half of the play, as well as when he was on break and having some drinks with his guest. It is believed that he put the mask on his chin only during the first half of the play, and that he took it off completely during the second half of the play.

And this is not the first time that Johnson has appeared in a public place without a muzzle, as he appeared before that, without wearing a muzzle, sitting next to the British writer and historian, David Attenborough, who is 95 years old, at the top of the “Cop 26” climate, and he also appeared In a corridor at Hexam Hospital, and on a train in Manchester.

The British Prime Minister apologized for his appearance without a mask in the hospital, although he said that he removed the mask for "only 30 seconds".

Johnson has been facing serious problems in recent days, with his handling of many areas of politics from railways to social welfare, in addition to his chaotic speech to the union of industries last Monday.

Three times during the speech he forgot if he was reading from the paper, and each time he would say "Forgive me."
