Johnson will use that to claim some kind of vindication 'the independent report found no rules were broken by the PM', fire some staff and promise to 'clamp down on boozy culture' as if it were a force of nature he had no control over and attempt to move on.
And if he clings on Labour's poll lead will continue to increase. I feel for loyal Tories, I really do

Re: All those No.10 lockdown parties

Seems Starmer has been photographed in a undistanced situation, indoors, beer inhand, during the lockdown.

Or a few years. Lots of lovely tax rises, energy bills doubling and inflation crippling peoples quality of life. Plus Boris..... The Tories are in power aren't they?

I can understand why no one wants to be leader atm and take over the inherited shambles. Maybe a new leader would wait till an election loss rather than lose the next election themselves.

They're recycling their own stories - they reported that last year and it didn't really go anywhere at the time

Re: All those No.10 lockdown parties

I think Boris should definitely stay.

Westminster voting intention:

LAB 41% (+3)
CON: 27% (-3)
LDEM: 11% (+1)
GRN: 8% (-2)
REFUK: 5% (-2)

Re: All those No.10 lockdown parties

It will be a brave person who applies for this job (just advertised)…



From the job ad

https://www.civilservicejobs.service...4&vxvac=179747
Quote:
You will occupy a pivotal leadership role in charge of three key teams in the Cabinet Office, primarily the Press Office that delivers a high quality 24/7 media relations operation for eight Ministers in the Cabinet Office, including CDL Steve Barclay, Leader of the House (Jacob Rees-Mogg) and Paymaster General (Michael Ellis). We are also responsible for media relations for Cabinet Secretary Simon Case and the Chief Executive of the Civil Service (Alex Chisholm).
I wonder how many of those will still be in post when the interviews start?

Re: All those No.10 lockdown parties

all this wine fridge business just shows the people who drink wine are prone to law breaking.

Anyone who keeps it in a fridge and not a brown paper bag under their desk is a wrong un.

Bringing a bottle to the interview would help prospective applicants?

That’s probably next week’s story, along with Bolivian Nose Candy, now he’s dumping on the staff…

Re: All those No.10 lockdown parties

Boris is taking his party downhill, He is only giving the SNP a great boost, He must go and give the conservative a chance with a new leader to get rid of the SNP or we will be stuck with Nicola for ever,

She's entrenched your only hope is a revolution.
