Nor did she mislead Parliament.

I don't think it's hard to appreciate that it's a far lesser offence that she's committed, albeit a selfish and daft offence.

I know what you mean - but she's a vicious, unpleasant, inquisitor who strikes me as trying to emulate the neckless hunchback - who's far better at it.

They don’t want to know, papa. The Boris haters are so intoxicated and blinded by the scent of blood, all reason is out of the window.
All we are asking is that we wait to pass judgement until the inquiry results are published within the next few days.

When it involved socialising, as stated on the email invite…
I’ve been in many team meetings in over 40 years of work, and in not one was the boss’s wife wandering about with a drink in her hand.

Still a bit muffled…
I think we will be told that it wasn’t a party, it was a work meeting, and he only realised this after walking around, with his wife, for 25 minutes, talking to members of staff, and didn’t see the tables with wine, gin, and food on them.
If you think he has done something wrong, he is sorry that you have that mistaken impression, and hopes this will all be cleared up when the person who works for the person who works for him provides the whitewash, sorry, full and frank report, which he doesn’t have to do anything about, as the final decision whether to accept the report’s findings is up to him (if he’d done something wrong, which he hasn’t).
Hope this clears things up…

In the interview round yesterday, all the Tories interviewed, yes ALL, referred to "Sue Gray". It was such a trained patter that we, at home, predicted the exact moment when "Sue Gray" would be uttered.
"Dame Sue Gray" soon? Countess of Westminster?

You’ve been in the wrong job, Hugh. Even working in local government, we had some afternoon meetings with alcohol. One of them was in a pub garden. We found it loosened people up, and some useful ideas came out of it that resolved a few problems that had been bedevilling us for some time.
You haven’t lived!
