At this "surprise" work meeting/party/birthday party/get-together with cake and M&S snacks, you would have thought the person in charge of the country (and his Chancellor of the Exchequer) who was telling everyone else not to get together for work meetings/parties/birthday parties/get-togethers that weren’t necessary, might have had the sense to say "sorry, guys & gals, it’s a lovely thought, but this is actually against the rules we told everyone else to follow, so let’s just stop what’s happening, OK?".
The cake, the surprise, the 10 minutes, the Interior Decorator in the Cabinet Room are all just gaslighting and distractions - they set the rules, they reminded us nearly every day of what the rules were, they had people fined throughout this period for breaking the rules.
There are no excuses.

I prefaced my comment about there being no case by the words ‘from what we know’. There is nothing contradictory about my position on this.
I suspect very much there is nothing that will prove BJ’s complicity with breaking of Covid rules, but I will not be absolutely sure until we know the police verdict and we see Sue Gray’s report. I’ve not said anything other than that we should reserve judgement.

Really?
At their own admission, Carrie gathered staff (and Lulu Lytle) to the Cabinet Room for a surprise before the meeting that Sunak was attending - there was no purpose for this pre-meeting except to surprise Johnson with a cake and to sing "Happy Birthday"…
What are you going to say next - he was ambushed by a cake?
