Are you sure about that, Dave? There are a lot of people who think that eating cake or drinking alcohol are proof of a party.
Clearly, that is not the case, but it appears to have swayed the Met. If there hadn’t been cake, Boris would not have been fined. Ridiculous, I know, but true.
It’s also true that Kier attended a function with curry and alcohol at a party member’s house. Police reaction? Move on, nothing to see here….
The ONLY difference apart from the fact that Kier was at a social event and Boris was at a work event was that Boris had cake.
Think about it. If it wasn’t so glaringly obvious and tragic, it would make a hilarious comedy. How to make something out of nothing, and do it so inconsistently, citing cake as the final arbiter when cake isn’t even mentioned in the rules. Yet a social event is OK, when it really isn’t!
