The argument is all about cake. If the cake wasn’t presented, there would have been no allegation of a social event.

The PM and other members of the committee were gathered for a legitimate meeting. There were only two others who came in for a few minutes - his wife and the interior designer, both of whom were in regular contact with the PM and others on the committee.

So perhaps you should stop being rude and attacking me and concentrate on the facts, or it will seem to others that you’ve lost this argument.

Well, you have, actually. Good luck with the next crop of fines.
