For now, Bozzer has been fined and his moral authority is compromised. You have been swerving that issue all afternoon - I suspect you know perfectly well that there’s a problem here which is why you’re avoiding the question rather than outright denying it. |

Both had a break from work amongst colleagues. Does a cake constitute a party but not a beer? Well, you won’t agree with even the most logical argument on this subject, so we’ll have to agree to disagree. I have more important stuff to worry about than this nonsense. |

You know Boris Johnson’s moral authority has been tanked. But you’ve stood by him throughout, so admitting that is admitting you’re wrong. Which you seem ill-equipped to do. Hence transparent deflections like the above. |
Re: All those No.10 lockdown parties
I think Peston nails the seriousness of things here. Even those who have voted Conservative all their lives must appreciate the likely weakening in British democracy if Johnson stays.

However, having heard what he was fined for, I believe that decision by the police to have been wrong. But to appeal would just drag the whole thing on even longer. I think the public will come to see this as the trivia it is over time. This may impact on the local elections as they are now imminent, but not the General Election. |
Re: All those No.10 lockdown parties
First it was 10 minutes, now it's 9 - by the time of the Local Elections, OLD BOY will be saying that it was a couple of seconds, and if we could all just wait for the Sue Gray report, that would confirm this...
(and when it doesn't, it will be a litany of cake/Starmer/fluff/trivia/get on with the job/whatever the latest line he gets from the Whips' WhatsApp feed) Remember all those day/weeks/months ago when OLD BOY said we shouldn't make up our minds before we knew what the outcome of the Police investigation was, because he was keeping an open mind, and we should too - his comment above shows he was as economical with the actualite as Johnson was...

Re: All those No.10 lockdown parties
To much of the general public it always has been 'much ado about nothing', however it's been a nice little earner for clickbait article writers, a Godsend for political activists, and an ongoing filler item for news channels that couldn't be bothered to find other subjects for their 'experts' to discuss :p:

Anyhoo, might just head out and break the law - not knowingly, of course, just for a few minutes - I mean, the laws are so stupid and there are so many of them, and they are so confusing. Or, seeing as according to some on here and in the tabloid press, we shouldn't investigate "crimes that happened in the past", and we no longer need to worry about "crimes that didn't take long" and "crimes when there is armed conflict going on anywhere in the world" either, I might join the police - sounds like an easy life. |

Their polling fell since and hasn't recovered. Yesterday's snap polling on the issue itself shows a majority of the public wants him to resign: https://twitter.com/SkyNews/status/1514108508236623872 Quote:
