They’ll have sat on this for months. Turning the same blind eye as the state police.

A drip drip drip… without any dripping?
The BBC have been as complicit as the Met in keeping this story down. ITV News have forced their hand with the photos.

I know, but they are motivated by sales. The so called 'neutral' BBC should rise above that if it's publically funded.

How is 'rising above' a news story being 'neutral'?

It’s not in the public interest to know the current PM is a liar who misled Parliament

They're motivated by something and it's not sales

Who cares if it had been 50 days. Their persistence ended up with a police investigation having to be properly and thoroughly reestablished, as it should have been with all the lies Starmer had told.

Re: Partygate & Beergate discussion
Always a sign of a healthy democracy - opposition leaders put under criminal investigation because of the ruling party aligned press regurgitate an old story for which he was previously cleared around election time.
The other day someone questioned how well my posts would age - well there's some in this thread that have certainly aged like a fine milk. When Starmer is cleared even more so.

Give up with the silly predictions: you predicted Brexit would be stopped. It hasn’t been.
He wasn’t cleared the first time, because a thorough investigation had not been conducted at all. Now it is being done, as it should. You cannot have a two tier policing system just because you like one guy better than the other.

Your view of thorough is entirely subjective. And yes you are right, I got something wrong once in 2016, I’m not entirely sure that means my opinion on any other matter six years later can be entirely discounted. When Starmer is cleared can we call it 1-1?
I don’t even like Starmer.

Re: Partygate & Beergate discussion
I think jfman predicted this diversionary story!
Quote:
Partygate: Govt poised to announce multibillion-pound cost of living package as Sue Gray report expected
Help for the cost of living crisis was not expected until next month but as the prime minister comes under increasing criticism over lockdown-breaching parties, he is understood to have encouraged the chancellor to bring changes forward.

Re: Partygate & Beergate discussion
While you two prattle on about putting the world to right, or pretending to, any cost of living package is welcome, I think Joe public care more about financial help than stupid lockdown laws being breached by either side.
