Why don't they just ask him? Or many of the witnesses that witnessed him being there? Bet he didn't bring a bottle either.

He thought BYOB meant "bring your own Boris"…

By the sounds of it, there were so many social events going on nobody could possibly remember them all and if they went to a particular party or not!

Because the more he says, the more oxygen the story is given.
Hey, wouldn’t it be a good idea to wait for the result of the inquiry before passing judgement?

Hey, if he wasn’t there, why can’t he say he wasn’t there - it wouldn’t prejudice anything…

The last defence of the guilty is very often "no comment".

Solicitors will advise that if the person is believed to be not guilty as well.

Not in this case, he'd be falling over himself to let us know if he hadn't been there.

He is waiting to see if there is a photo before he denies it.

No, he plays games. The opposition get more and more confident as the allegations get wilder until at the end, Boris has the last laugh and they are made to look silly.

Because the police twist everything. If they get nothing, they don’t pursue it. Easier all round.

They wouldn’t advise a client to not say "not guilty" if they were not guilty…
On the day Boris won’t say if he was, or wasn’t , at the booze-fest, we were standing outside my mother-in-law’s care home window, trying to communicate with a very elderly lady with Alzheimer’s & Senile Dementia; we were doing this, rather than face to face, because it was illegal for us to be with her.
Excuse me if I don’t have a lot of patience with someone who is defending Johnson allegedly breaking the law by stating it’s not very important and no one cares…
Are you Michael Fabricant?

Re: That No.10 Christmas Party
In fairness to Johnson, he received the party invitation through an email he got to his old phone. So he won't have been able to retrieve it to remember if he accepted or declined it.
(Thought I'd provide this "excuse" before anyone else does. )

Re: That No.10 Christmas Party
I hope they don't find out about all the military bases where service personnel are confined to camp, but still training, working and socialising.
And all the workplaces where the canteens are still open, and have always been open.
