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...
He was obviously keeping an "open mind" as long as the Police verdict agreed with his preconceived outcomes...

I was keeping an open mind because I didn’t know all the facts. I knew about this one, but didn’t consider it a breach of the rules, particularly when Starmer was not fined for having a beer with colleagues on his break. I say again, how is this any different? Is a cake more of a Covid risk than a beer?
The 10minutes has been widely quoted, but it has been clarified now that it was actually 9 minutes. Not that it makes much difference, but I like to keep up.

Yes, if only Boris didn’t see that cake. But wait….would that really have meant those families could have visited their relatives?
It is a ridiculous argument.

You seem very keen to give us what you try to pass as absolute facts when it backs up your beliefs but when others try and do the same and you don't like it you want them to wait for the report etc.
Just accept you backed a loser, something most of us have known since the early pages of the thread.

So what was the difference between what Kier did and what Boris did? The only difference I can make out is that one was a beer and the other a cake. You don’t need to answer. I know that you cannot. You just want to get Boris out of office, and that’s all that matters to you.
Well, he’s going nowhere. Sorry to disappoint.

They weren’t sorry because they were not aware they did anything wrong until all this erupted.
