Organising a party with a bigger fine would be different, so those claiming unfairness because they were caught doing that and fined £1,000 and politco's only fined £50 is a non-starter.


What does need sorting is did any of them deliberately and intentionally lie. There is a difference between unintentionally telling a porky you believed to be true and misleading parliament or the nation.
If you made the laws in the first place and communicated them to the nation via TV broadcasts, you'd be hard-pressed to come to any conclusion other than the one Seph has arrived at.
