Cable Forum - Updated: Boris resigns as party leader

If the police say he didn't commit a further offence surely that is the end of it, whatever meetings he attended where within the rules if not he would have got further fpn's .

Sir Roger Gale MP, Member of Parliament for North Thanet
I believe that the PM has misled the House of Commons from the despatch box. That is a resignation issue. I have made my own position clear. It is now a matter for my Conservative parliamentary colleagues to decide whether or not to instigate a vote of no confidence.

If you believe Old Boy and his assertions about the future of the BBC, what have they got to loose? Nadine has got it in for them anyway so why go down without a fight?

It's hard to disagree with such profound insight as this.

What makes the state broadcaster fundamentally dishonest is that they didn’t pull this together overnight, or over the weekend.

They’ll have sat on this for months. Turning the same blind eye as the state police.

That’s assumes they didn’t know back in the days where the Met weren’t investigating (prior to Jan 22).

Well I guess tonight when they air the report, we may discover the answer to that.
