You know things are going really, really badly for Johnson now as even Papa Smurf and Old Boy seem to have stopped defending him.

I still say wait for the report. Then we should get a pretty good idea of the sequence of events and what actually happened. If it's as bad as it looks, he's toast.

He may be toast before the report ever sees the light of day! He shouldn't need a senior civil servant to tell him that someone else should have explained his own rules to him! The British public is not as thick as Johnson likes to think.

Looks like it's the 2019 intake that is moving against Johnson.

Could just be getting overexcited but it looks like they're expecting the move tomorrow.

See how everything gets twisted? This was in answer to the allegation that he was told that event was a party. Boris said he was told no such thing.

Are you really suggesting that having ridiculed DC for that obvious lie, we should believe him over the Prime Minister now that it suits your argument to do so? Sorry, but if DC is going to contradict the PM on this, he is going to have to provide back up evidence, because I certainly wouldn’t believe anything this arrogant poser has to say on its own merits.

Firstly,20 May 2020 was self-evidently a party, Old Boy, even the keenest fans of Johnson would struggle to say otherwise. Don't let BoJo's boat sink with you on it!
Secondly, ignorance of the law is no defence especially if you're on TV weekly explaining the law to the general public.

I was referring to how people are twisting the truth to suit their own agendas.
The PM was contrite at that interview with Beth Rigby. Frankly, it doesn’t matter what Boris says about this, he knows his detractors will choose not to believe him. That is why he wants the report issued, so the facts are set out clearly and people will have those facts to consider.
Clearly, there are a lot of people out there, including on this forum, who are not interested in the facts because they just want any excuse to see the back of Boris. After all, this is the only way Labour and the other political parties can steal a march on the Conservatives. That’s because they have no worthwhile policies to fight with.

No doubt that Cummings has been somewhat economical with the truth and that approach certainly served his last couple of campaigns well. But if others are prepared to back up his allegations as they are here, then calling out Cummings' honesty won't work as a defence.

Why would you prefer to believe DC anyway? Seems like you haven’t thought this one through.

What will work as a defence is actual evidence. An oath taken by Cummings is worthless.
