Re: All those No.10 lockdown parties

The question i have to ask is what was going on that prompted the denial that Rayner was there.

Labour say it was a mistake made in good faith to deny she was there. Sorry but, “faith” & “good” are incompatible in the same sentence as Labour.

The no 1 woman in the labour party and they forget she was there, smells like BS to me.

It's been going since 1870. What makes it not authentic?

If you're talking about Damien, Hugh and me then sorry to spoil your idealistic fantasy but none of us are Labour luvvies. We're just keen on combating disinformation, wherever that disinformation is coming from.

exactly my point . Need to ask the Labour leader right load of bs was his answer . "She paid the fines end of the matter . " Or words to that effect but a lot more
The only people who seemed to have resigned have been those having affairs - Matt Hancock and Neil Ferguson.

Do you not feel that sentence demonstrates a little prejudice when analysing the situation?

Stating facts isn’t "turning cartwheels’ (well, not for most of us).

So quoting GBNews is confirming my "bias"? Surely the fact that diverse media outlets (including local media quoting Durham Police) are reporting the same thing reflects a lack of bias?

But you have not combated any disinformation, in fact your spreading it by spouting the Starmer lies that no rules were broken, when video evidence of him holding and swigging from a beer bottle, socialising indoors with people he isn’t household members with, half way up the country in Durham.

I don’t normally credit BBC here but at the time, Sophie Raworth tears squirming Starmer, a new hole. This interview was back in January:

They're not. The police just confirmed receipt of the MP's letter. He claimed that meant they were opening up the case. I don't blame anyone for believing an MP but please prepare yourself for disappointment if you're hoping for the case to be re-opened.

The matter was investigated and he was cleared. No lawyer has put their neck on the line and said otherwise. If it's as clear cut as you say it is, that would have happened. Unless you think all lawyers are Labour voters?

You don’t have to be a lawyer to say he’s broken the rules, which at face value, he has.

I feel this should be re-investigated especially now that new evidence has been uncovered about who was in attendance despite their previous attempts at a cover up.

Re: All those No.10 lockdown parties

I'm not bothered about the rising costs of fuel & food, or the triple lock pension that isn't.

I'm just over the moon to see the effort put into all this tomfoolery about who lied about being where they weren't when there was or wasn't a meeting and if it was before or after a certain date, the importance of which is mind blowing in the grand scheme of things.


I'm off to mow the lawns

If starmer is so sure no laws were broken he should encourage a thorough investigation with all the facts on the table , but atm is seems that no effort has been put in by the police to investigate this possible criminal breach of covid legislation .

Re: All those No.10 lockdown parties

There is no “possible” about it.

There was to be no in door mixing of with non-same household people, sharing of food was prohibited, it wasn’t his regular place of work and what makes this even more worse now, is the lies that Angela Rayner wasn’t there but then they admit she was.
