No and he won't. I felt that he wouldn't get one after Johnson didn't get any for his attendance at the other gatherings and the David Green blog that Julian cited yesterday convinces me even more.

Re: Partygate & Beergate discussion

The bloodthirsty among us may have needed to be careful for what they had wished. If Starmer isn’t fined, then he’ll come back even holier than thou and any attack on Boris’s change to the Ministerial Code will have considerable bite.

These corrupt changes cannot be permitted.

Starmer obviously won't be fined as he's done nothing wrong in the eyes of the law.

Extrapolating all of that from one event? If you have so little faith in the UK's justice system, then maybe this country is not for you.

Agree Boris changing the ministerial code to allow for lying is outrageous.

I'm thinking of moving to Monaco, I'm sick of all the privileged running the country.

No surprise really. If the Conservatives want to win the next election, they can's do so with the current Prime Minister.

Tories heading for election wipeout and Boris Johnson to lose his seat, poll finds

Boris Johnson is on course to lose his seat at the next general election and lead his party into a wipeout.

A new poll has found the prime minister has become toxic in the key battleground seats where he secured a majority just two-and-half years ago.

Surveys have found most voters think he should quit over partygate and now new modelling has predicted the tide of anger would capsize the Conservatives in an election.

Mr Johnson’s pro-Brexit campaign in 2019 saw his party make inroads into Labour heartlands but the magic way have worn off.

YouGov analysed voting intentions in 88 constituencies which the Tories either took from Labour in 2019 or where they have a majority of less than 15 points over the party.

In all but three of them, Mr Johnson’s party is on course to lose – including in his own seat of Uxbridge and South Ruislip.

YouGov’s modelling found that if the PM manages to avoid a confidence vote and lead his party into the next election, he may find himself out of a job anyway.

The poll suggested Labour would win the Greater London constituency by five points, which would be the first time in history a prime minister had been voted out.

So true - what sort of low-life Tory MP would vote against their Party Leader, or against Government votes in the House of Commons?

Agreed - trying to destroy the Labour Party by keeping it out of power by having an electable PM in place for the next election instead of the lockdown champagne quaffing BoJo.

Re: Partygate & Beergate discussion

My word you Labour supporters are quick off the mark this evening.
