Cable Forum - Updated: Boris resigns as party leader

There is no “possible” about it.

There was to be no in door mixing of with non-same household people, sharing of food was prohibited, it wasn’t his regular place of work and what makes this even more worse now, is the lies that Angela Rayner wasn’t there but then they admit she was.

maybe they misled the country because there were many more people in attendance than we were led to believe.

If legal brains felt that Starmer had a case to answer then someone would have taken out a private prosecution by now or pointed out to the police the error of their ways. Enough moneyed people would be more than happy to see Starmer slip up if they felt Durham Police had let him off.

All that's happened is the local MP tried to find false equivalence with No 10 "Operation Save 5 May" and has whinged to the police. They have thanked him for his letter and confirmed there's no investigation under way.

Rather than compare the two parties I'd rather they were held accountable separately, this finger wagging whataboutery is about as dull as it can get, hang 'em all out to dry imo

Re: All those No.10 lockdown parties

Yet more food for thought, Sir Keir: Labour leader faces fresh 'Beergate' scrutiny after he claimed the Durham hotel he was staying in wasn't serving food - but it can be revealed that it was... until 9pm

The lies are catching up with him.

Interviewed on LBC radio in January, Sir Keir said: ‘No restaurants were open, no pubs were open. The hotel we were staying in had no food, they didn’t run food. So if you didn’t get a takeaway then our team wasn’t eating that evening.’

But The Mail on Sunday can reveal that Sir Keir stayed at the Radisson Blu hotel in Durham – and that its restaurant was serving food outside on its terrace until 9pm.

Well it might if political leaders in other political parties are also found ‘to have broken the rules’, it will relieve pressure on the PM.

They are not worried about the fines at their salary levels. They are only worried about the votes.

Angela Rayner has written to Boris Johnson demanding answers over reports that a 'Sexist of the Year' award was handed out at a lockdown-busting Christmas party in Number 10.

Labour's deputy leader has called on the prime minister to confirm whether or not the award was presented at a gathering in Downing Street in December 2020, as originally reported in the Sunday Times.

In a letter, Ms Rayner says if such a presentation did take place, the government must release information stating who gave out the award, who was nominated for it and why, and who was presented with the prize.
