I think that’s all he has to prove. It wasn’t a party, it was working time out in the fresh air rather than cooped up in the office.

What’s safer - working inside or working outside?

Haha come on. You must be on a wind up at this point surely?

It wasn’t a work meeting, it was people meeting after work to socialise, relax, and have drinks.

It's too late for technicalities, Old Boy.

Perceptions count and the public and his Party have found him guilty and want his head.

Do you two take it in turns, or can you both fit up there at the same time?

Just sayin’…. :D

I still want to see the result of the inquiry before passing judgement, but I agree it’s not a good look.

Damien's right, they're both in a gentle wind-up mode!

Are you disappointed that he has now admitted to being at the party?

Much like the family Pierre did with friends and neighbours at the same time.

You aren't the ones who made it illegal to do so.

I know, and that's the reason he'll probably not get out of this but I wouldn't criticise as that would make me a hypocrite.

Along, I'm sure, with millions of others that also ignored the rules that are currently putting the boot in.

Send him packing immediately!


The fact he dismissed the idea of telling the truth for so long shows how much he contemplates lying to us all.


This is not how a leader of a country should be.

Are you one of the people he has obviously brain washed?
It was a party to reward his staff. You don't have alcohol in a business meeting!

I'm sure the majority of the UK did follow the rules, and have the ability to rightly outraged that those in charge didn't.

Indeed. My work had literally everyone they could working from home including lots of people that previously didn't have the option.

All office gatherings were banned unless it was essential and a 40+ meeting would not have met that criteria. Anything that needed a 40+ attendance would have been a video conference.
