There seems to have been an Xmas party in 10 Downing Street when the rest of us were in lockdown. Thoughts?

Strange how it's taken 12 months to be reported on!

Even stranger how therewere apparently dozens of people at the Xmas party at a time when such a thing was clearly against the rules.

It's actually alleged there were parties/gatherings at No 10 more than once during lockdown.

Interestingly, Johnson hasn't actually denied such parties happened. The baffling line he's pushing is that the rules were followed.

And currently Cressida Dick isn't investigating the issue. She claims the reason for not doing her job is: "As far as I'm aware, we have had no complaint, and therefore I really can't comment on what did or didn't happen there"

Mhm. I suspect she's about to get a shitload of complaints. How will she avoid investigating then?

Don't you think the police should investigate if/how our government broke the law?

Of course but did it break the law if they are all working together in the same building? I think the police have better things to do than a so called works party last year.

So the police should investigate. If there's nothing to hide here, why are they all scurrying around trying to avoid scrutiny?

Were they all working together? I believe compulsory mask wearing was in place at the time and going by the reports of all the kissing going on they were breaking the law. Parties were not allowed regardless if it was along with people you worked with. You are trying to defend the indefensible.Usual thing when this government breaks the law it is. Nothing to see here move along now.

It gets better, if you think about it. Last I checked, Raab was secretary of state for justice.

So we've just had the secretary of state for justice saying about the police: "...but they don't normally look back and investigate things that have taken place a year ago..."

That's a direct quote, as far as I can tell. I just listened to it and Raab mumbled and rushed the year bit. As if he was struggling to get out such utter horseshit in defence of his glorious leader.

Raab - what a fucking joke he is! Another completely inept Minister!

I really really hope a clever defence barrister uses that line for a client and quotes the Justice Secretary.

Why are people bothered about a party that happened 12mths ago need to look to the future not dwell in the past

Reply privately (closed, thread got too big)

 

By (user no longer on site) OP     over a year ago


" Why are people bothered about a party that happened 12mths ago need to look to the future not dwell in the past "

People are bothered about the government breaking the law they themselves introduced. Breaking the law several times and v blatantly, by all accounts.

People are also bothered by the fact other people got fined and shut down by police when they did similar things.

People are also bothered by the police turning a blind eye to what the government did, despite the fact police are always at No 10. At the same time, the police were warning and threatening the rest of us for any behaviour close to what was going on at No 10.

People are also bothered by the fact those at the heart of government seemed to be having jolly parties while the rest of us were told we couldn't see loved ones or even attend funerals in person.

There are so many accounts from so many directions now that it's pretty damn clear a party/parties took place in No 10 when such things were illegal according to the government's own rules.

The government is tying itself up in knots trying to evade the accusations and, when that doesn't work, flat out lying. The MET is likelise tying itself up in knots trying not to do its job.

They'd all be better simply admitting to what happened at this point. The cover up always seems to do more damage than the original crime.

" If there were journalists there as you claim why are they not doing their job and covering up for the government? this is the bit i dont understand about your claim."

It should really be obvious.

They get invited to parties like this because they're part of the circle, they get access to government with the tacit agreement they don't really criticise them.

So you're asking why would they not whistle blow on the people they're cozy with?

Not to mention if they admit they were there they'd get cricitism for breaking rules, and for being too close to government.

The gov line previously was to repeat ad nauseum things like: "rules were followed/no Covid rules were broken" etc. Without denying there was a party/parties.

Malthouse said he didn't know if an event took place, but if it did no rules were broken.

Yet I just heard Raab push the line there was no party.

They're tying themselves up in endless knots over this. Would have gone so much better for them if they'd just admitted to breaking the rules right away.

"The gov line previously was to repeat ad nauseum things like: "rules were followed/no Covid rules were broken" etc. Without denying there was a party/parties.

Malthouse said he didn't know if an event took place, but if it did no rules were broken.

Yet I just heard Raab push the line there was no party.

They're tying themselves up in endless knots over this. Would have gone so much better for them if they'd just admitted to breaking the rules right away.

I feel sorry for anyone who has you on their jury.

You would have someone convicted without any evidence in a flash.!

Oh I see... the gov is clearly as innocent as can be. In which case, why don't they just release all the facts? In fact, they could invite the police to investigate the issue fully and put it to bed. Problem solved, eh?

Sounding like Angela Rainer now get the police.

dont you think they have better things to do? most people don't give a fuck boris wasn't there so even less people give a fuck just labour mp,s trying to gain some ground and a few people on a swingers site.

The fetlock tuggers won’t agree as they know their place, you have to remember that they think people in government are better than the rest of us and are happy to let them do whatever they like

I did say somewhere above why the party/parties issue is so important. It's about far more than just a few people having a knees up. Here you go again:

People are bothered about the government breaking the law they themselves introduced. Breaking the law several times and v blatantly, by all accounts.

People are also bothered by the fact other people got fined and shut down by police when they did similar things.

People are also bothered by the police turning a blind eye to what the government did, despite the fact police are always at No 10. At the same time, the police were warning and threatening the rest of us for any behaviour close to what was going on at No 10.

People are also bothered by the fact those at the heart of government seemed to be having jolly parties while the rest of us were told we couldn't see loved ones or even attend funerals in person.

Then again I guess the issue isn't important if you don't care about the law. Or honesty. Or hypocrisy. Or fairness. Or risking the lives of others for the sake of a party.

You seem angry and shouty because you keep using exclamation marks. That's all.

There are now so many reports from so many sources, it's pretty damn certain an illegal party/parties took place.

You clearly, and apparently angrily, don't want to believe it. So be it. Keep burying your head in the sand if you want.

You aske why isn't there footage of the party/parties? Why do you think? People might be a teeny bit wary of being whistleblowers and producing such eviddence, knowing damn well the government would be v motivated to punish them any way they can.

Unlike the government, people in media have in the past been sanctioned for breaking the law during lockdown. They could well be worried about losing their jobs. They could also be worried about the government trying to bury them if they speak up.

But why did you have to mention blindfolds? Now all I can picture is a bunch of politicians andd journos in an Eyes Wide Shut party situation. The horror

And I'm pretty sure I answered your question above. People are not answering on the record as they know the government will try to punish them if they do. And they may lose their jobs. And they may get fined.

"

Of course they can just do that these days the press would have a field day, people sacked for talking about a party it would give people such as yourself months of anti government sleaze publicity.

"The gov line previously was to repeat ad nauseum things like: "rules were followed/no Covid rules were broken" etc. Without denying there was a party/parties.

Malthouse said he didn't know if an event took place, but if it did no rules were broken.

Yet I just heard Raab push the line there was no party.

They're tying themselves up in endless knots over this. Would have gone so much better for them if they'd just admitted to breaking the rules right away.

I feel sorry for anyone who has you on their jury.

You would have someone convicted without any evidence in a flash.!

Oh I see... the gov is clearly as innocent as can be. In which case, why don't they just release all the facts? In fact, they could invite the police to investigate the issue fully and put it to bed. Problem solved, eh?

The police are there 24Hrs, so if there was this big knees up like you think why didn't they stop it.!

I'm not sure why you're angry and shouting at me.

To answer your question: because the Met are as compromised as hell. That's not a tricky one to figure out.

Who's angry and shouting?

You're the one who has a bee in his bonnet about some hearsay.

What I'm thinking is if a MP's can have a picture taken of himself in his own office kissing a lady who is not his wife.

Then surely a picture or some CCTV of this massive Christmas knees up at No 10 would of come out by now.!

You seem angry and shouty because you keep using exclamation marks. That's all.

There are now so many reports from so many sources, it's pretty damn certain an illegal party/parties took place.

You clearly, and apparently angrily, don't want to believe it. So be it. Keep burying your head in the sand if you want.

You aske why isn't there footage of the party/parties? Why do you think? People might be a teeny bit wary of being whistleblowers and producing such eviddence, knowing damn well the government would be v motivated to punish them any way they can.

What a load of rubbish.

Who has said they were at a Christmas party at No 10?

As I said, keep burying your head in the sand if you want.

If enough of the media keep pressure on, there's a decent chance you'll find out who was at the party/parties. (If it happened, as seems v likely.)

If the media stop pushing, this story will slowly fade away. Like so many other damning stories with this government.

You said the media were at the party earlier.

Did they wear blindfolds so they couldn't see who else was there?

Unlike the government, people in media have in the past been sanctioned for breaking the law during lockdown. They could well be worried about losing their jobs. They could also be worried about the government trying to bury them if they speak up.

But why did you have to mention blindfolds? Now all I can picture is a bunch of politicians andd journos in an Eyes Wide Shut party situation. The horror

If a person in the media was worried about being sanctioned or losing their job, why on earth would they go to a party in one of the most reckonised government buildings in the world which has a 24 Hr police guard on it?

Certain media people gain access to government circles by schmoozing. Is this really a surprise to you? This feels like explaining to a kid that birds flap their wings and that's how they fly."

You really are scrapping the bottom of the barrel now.

Still waiting for those pictures though.

Any selfie or post on twitter will do?

Leaking an Xmas Party story to distract from the awful Afghanistan story is the sort of thing Johnson would do. If he did it as a strategy, it's proving to be a huge political fuck up.

Then again, maybe we're seeing the hand of Cummings behind all this. The timing of the leaked info feels calculated.

1st we got a few reports of a party. Then more info, that it actually seemed to be parties.

There was a wait long enough for government people to actually deny there was a party.

Then we got the Allegra vid clip where a bunch of them were laughing and joking about a party at No 10 last year.

If you were one of the people who were stuck outside a hospital window staying at a loved one suffering from COVID, or unable to visit a Vineland person due to restrictions whilst Boris and his mates partied on, I'm sure you'd be pissed off.

2) we're being told we can't have what they are doing and laughing at us

3) it now seems the police are cronies of this government

If they can lie about, yes, a trivial little party.. what else are they lying about??

"We're all in this together" was the phrase... was it really?

All of that, yes. But any party in those cicumstances also ultimately put the lives of others at risk. So it was not trivial in any sense.

They also broke the law they themselves introduced. That's not trivial either.

**Whoever** not however in the above.

This is more damaging than Barnard Castle now. Expect the press, and then back-bench MPs to turn on BJ now. There was over 500 covid deaths on the day of that party.

The ITV news clip blows any excuses out of the water…. If you are going to have a press conference, you don’t practice answering complete fiction, you practice answering questions that you anticipate are likely to be coming, and that question is so specific you know that something happened….

In a way this basically shatters any talk of lockdowns again because who is going to listen to the government again…

It’s telling that the government are putting up no one on the morning tv and radio rounds… this is a million times worse than Barnard Castle!!!!

It’s telling that the government are putting up no one on the morning tv and radio rounds… this is a million times worse than Barnard Castle!!!!

In my opinion, that video is the watershed moment - a bit like When the Hancock security camera stills were leaked.

Something big will happen, there is no going back from this.

The problem is that Johnson effectively removed competence from the Conservative benches in favour of compliance and so there isn’t a competent Government in waiting. If the current cabinet is the best they have…. What next?

This is a ‘Brexit government’ so it was always going to be useless, hopefully with Brexit now done (apparently) the tories can widen the next and choose a better leader and government

The whole thing, from did it or didn't it happen? , to the way its been dragged up and monetised, to the toxic discussions on here and everywhere else is a huge turn off for me. For what it's worth people working together having a drink together isn't a massive issue for me. I wasn't allowed to see my mum before she was taken ill nor when she was dying. Nothing anyone says or does can change that. It's done.

My hope is the opposition parties get their acts together and hold them to account as they are supposed to and as and when any offences are identified they are prosecuted to the fullest extent. The fact the opposition are unable to make any dents, even with the bunch of fools in power, is a sign of how dreadful politics are in this country and merits deep and serious debate, not cheap name calling.

As for the.. "I'm fucked if I'm doing what they say" brigade. Just do what is needed to get us through this quickest. By now we all know what that means.

It's a complete shit storm and once again it's been made far worse because Boris hasn't gripped the issue at the right time, had he done so it wouldn't be news and he wouldn't have just raised more questions than given answers at PMQs..

All governments fib, they all obscure and deflect etc but the old adage of ' when your in a hole stop digging' seems to be repeating itself under his tenure too many times..

U turning isn't the end of the world for any party but this executive is doing so too frequently and this latest lapse of leadership in the present time a fuck up too many..

The problem for me are a couple of things…

1) tier 3 at that point said “no mixing outside your household or social bubble”

2) they are currently prosecuting people who were at and holding parties on that specific date

3) he can’t admit there was a party because he would be in big trouble by saying last week at PMQs that there was no party… lying to parliament, legal ramifications

4) he basically tried to throw the blame everywhere but him…he is now trying to say he didn’t know about a party in his house!!! I haven’t got away with that excuse since I was 16!!!

This has cut through because it is way beyond one rule for us and one for them…. They were caught red handed!

Which of course the rest of us have been wondering for a week already.

Oh there are v bad things being pushed through. And partygate is eclipsing all that.

But it's generally a mistake to assume fuck ups are clever covers/plans. They tend just to be fuck ups.

Numbers of serious reasons:

1) Lies through the whole government

2) we're being told we can't have what they are doing and laughing at us

3) it now seems the police are cronies of this government

If they can lie about, yes, a trivial little party.. what else are they lying about??

"We're all in this together" was the phrase... was it really?

Allegra Stratton, you seen the video yet?"

All correct but if this government said we are going to kill every one over 65 as we think they are no longer useful Costafun would still defend them to the hilt as he has done with every corrupt deed they have done, I am beginning to think he is actually Bojo the clown with a profile on here.

I think it’s priceless to say the least...

All along there where restrictions and calls for lockdown and the majority off the nations population complied as they should to limit transmissions/spread of the virus..

All the while the rest off us where complying or trying to follow the rules and all the uncertainty off it at the cost off not being able to see loved ones and friends etc as difficult as it was we did what we had to do according to government guidelines...

Mean while government MPs and other members off staff/big wigs while enforcing and setting all these rules out on everyone else to adhere to them or risk penalties....were all busy getting down and jiggy dancing away holding hands and having a grand old time pissed up at no 10 Downing Street..

It’s ironic really it’s hilarious if anything they say all these things and then get caught red handed on leaked videos all partying together (before you ask I saw a forwarded video off it sent to me)..

Like I said priceless and hilarious...good luck cleaning this one up but I doubt anything too severe will happen after all they can get away with mostly what they want as their in that power racket unless I get proven other wise by later events

Yep, and no names given for the sources either so its all a little vague, lots of insinuations but a bit light on facts so far by looks of it. Interesting to see where this goes."

Did the picture help you with the vagueness and lack of sources and facts?

" Why are people bothered about a party that happened 12mths ago need to look to the future not dwell in the past

People are bothered about the government breaking the law they themselves introduced. Breaking the law several times and v blatantly, by all accounts.

People are also bothered by the fact other people got fined and shut down by police when they did similar things.

People are also bothered by the police turning a blind eye to what the government did, despite the fact police are always at No 10. At the same time, the police were warning and threatening the rest of us for any behaviour close to what was going on at No 10.

People are also bothered by the fact those at the heart of government seemed to be having jolly parties while the rest of us were told we couldn't see loved ones or even attend funerals in person.

Still waiting to see all the photos which the press outside No 10 would of taken if a party happened.!

That played out well for you

Johnson/Tory defenders seem noticably quieter on here lately. It's as if they've finally realised this bunch are indefensible."

No it’s just that everyone is board of it all now

I'm not bored by the fact our leader was apparently treating us all with contempt.

Bored is another variation of 'move on'. I think I posted it in this thread.

It means I was wrong but do not want my views or opinions that have now proven to be demonstrably false to be examined in any way and I will not be revisiting my origional opinion as it would require some form of self reflection so I will attack the people or say that other people are bored of it.

We all saw the metropolitan elite at the dart standing up and singing about how they hate Boris this week. No matter how much you want think everyone is bored of it, they most certainly are not.

I think lots of people just tune out now when the radio or tv keep on going on about something that happened 12 months ago when the world has moved on and there are more resent problems.

But go ahead knock yourself out banging on about the same shite over and over again

Labour lead over conservative is about 10pts now and from in depth chats with voters is a fundamental shift.

The reason we keep brining up the same stuff is they kept doing it and keep denying it, this impacts on the voting intention so your thought that people tune out is not born out by the facts on voting intentions accriss multiple polls that keep getting impacted that the more these stories come out the less people want to vote conservative.

You might have tuned out as you don't want to revisit your origional thoughts around this but lots of people have not.

. ,,,, ,,,,, ,,,,, ,,,, ,,,, I was expecting Johnson to call a General Election in the early part of 2022 as no matter what they did or didn't do the polls continually had the tories around 5 points in front of Labour ,however the parties at Downing Street and the one rule for us and one rule for them way they govern does appear to have swung the figures to a Labour lead of around 5 points , , ToryMPs are still being sent out to say the parties were a year ago and no one is bothered but something has changed and quite suddenly ,

That does seem to be the only thing that many Tory MPs care about.

I think many people care about other things, though. Such as how often their leader has lied to them and broken the law.
