Leaving parties don't count the same as a dinner break, is that really what your saying :spin:

Are we still waiting for Sue Gray’s full report before we decide if any rules/laws were broken?

It means that fixed penalty notices have been issued to attendees of three of the dozen “partygate” events investigated by the Metropolitan Police…

… Scotland Yard has said it has issued 20 fines over the dozen events in Downing Street and Cabinet Office buildings alleged to have broken lockdown rules.

More fines are expected.

Yes, and the conclusion of the police investigation.

Boris has not been personally implicated so far, much to the disappointment of his detractors.

It’s all beginning to look like fluff, wouldn’t you say, Hugh?

No! His faithful followers will see to it that someone else will take the blame by throwing themselves under the bus.

I imagine it's taking a bit of time to tot up Johnson's fines. :D

We must await the Sue Gray report before imagining conclusions.

We must await the Sue Gray report which will be published after the May election to avoid national politics having an undemocratic impact on voting in what are really local elections. ;)

No, I wouldn’t…

You appear to be stating that we need to wait till the end of the police investigation to understand if any laws have been broken, even though three groups of people have already been given fixed penalty notices for breaking the law…

Johnson has admitted attending three of the twelve parties under investigation - you appear to be pre-judging the outcome… ;)

"Let's wait until the Sue Gray report is published" is what Old Boys tells us all to do but then he breaks those rules himself!

Reminds me of something else. ;)

Are we actually interested in the evidence or is this just a personal vendetta? :rolleyes:

It will be published when the police investigation is completed.

I’m not pre-judging anything - you are.

I am aware of the fines, but Boris has not had one, and I don’t think he will either, from what I have read, but yes, there may be things that have not come out yet. As long as he is not found to have broken the rules personally, there is no case for him to answer.

Boris has not admitted to attending any parties. He may have attended work events, but he would say they were not parties. Whether or not that is true is for the police to judge.

I’ve given my opinion, sure, but I have always maintained that it is for the police to judge whether or not that is correct.

You, however, seem to have abandoned any notion of proof before judgement, which I find rather worrying. Let’s hope you are never falsely accused of anything.
