Re: All those No.10 lockdown parties

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/politics...treet-parties/

The Telegraph seem to have it in for Johnson, which is surprising considering that in 2018 they were happy to pay him £275k per year for 10 hours work a month…

Quote:
Police officers who guard Downing Street have been interviewed by Sue Gray for the “partygate” investigation, The Telegraph can disclose.

Members of the Metropolitan Police’s Parliamentary and Diplomatic Protection Command who were on duty when a string of lockdown-breaking gatherings are alleged to have taken place have provided detailed testimonies about what they witnessed.

The statements, described by one source as “extremely damning”, are expected to form a key part of Ms Gray’s report, which is due to be published within days.

You seem to know more about the result of this inquiry than anyone else. Yet it’s not been published yet.

Still, let’s not let the facts get in the way of damning a Conservative Prime Minister, eh, Andrew?

All of this should be treated as the trivia that it is.

The facts condemn Johnson, not me.

Johnson is Conservative in name only. He has a high-spending, high interventionist inclination. Think of Thatcher and he's the opposite.

If you elect a clown, you get a circus. Don't blame the audience for enjoying the show!

If you are referring to the facts relating to the ‘parties’, we don’t have them yet.

As far as the culture of no 10 is concerned, it’s probably the same as it has been for previous governments of both persuasions.

We have enough facts to condemn Johnson for lying.

In terms of the culture at No 10, "probably" is doing a lot of heavy lifting here. Any evidence?
