And whether you or me deem people eating and drinking together as work is irrelevant in the eyes of the law, it’s whether the law views it as a social or work gathering.
Hold your drink – I totally agree! As I said before, if Starmer was fined for breaking the lock down laws he voted for (and called Johnson and others out on) he should resign. As I think Johnson should have already done too following his receipt of that fixed penalty notice.

It’s funny that you are going on about ‘proving intent’. You didn’t make that point when criticising the PM when, according to you, he lied to parliament.
Neither should be resigning over the trivial event of receiving a fine. We’ve got everything way out of proportion here.
