"did he think that last year's party at number 10 would stay hidden and not get exposed? Having 12 crates of Indian lager, delivered in dimploamtic attaches don't count as an urgent COBRA meeting does it? ![]() ![]() ![]() You do realise that even if there was a party, it was nothing do with Boris - right? He did not arrange one, he did not attend one. To blame Boris is like me blaming you for your neighbour having a party!!! | |||

Fa la la la la.. la la la la ![]() ![]() We've sunk a long way, haven't we? "Some ordinary people might have broken the law. Therefore we can't hold politicians accountable for their criminal wrongdoing. Poor widdle Boris. He was doing his best." Tis the season to jolly well return to the rule of law and treat politicians like adults, not spoiled children who are unable to obey the law. | |||

"If he knew, he's undeniably in the wrong. If he didn't know, he's undeniably incompetent. In any case, since finding out, he should be investigating the situation and reprimanding those involved. How can this man be leading the country? " Because he rode the Brexit train to power. And lots of people ignored his many failings and many lies as long as he shouted "Brexit" loud enough and often enough. | |||

She definitely tory leaning and until recently she was the go to journalist for government because they knew she would give them an easy ride. Starmer maybe boring but surely preferable to BJ. | |||

"I know there are going to be people wanting to tow the party line … but tier 3 regulations, which London was in, stating no mixing outside your household or social bubble…. Work colleagues does not come under social bubbles!!!!! People have been fined for breaking the rules… This is way worse than Barnard Castle…. How will anyone listen to any rules now " Exactly. With the prosecution of the alleged gathering in Ilford going through the courts at the exact same time, just makes it even more infuriating | |||

Or only the Tories? Why are they above the laws the rest of us are expected to live by? No one is asking you to vote for Starmer. Personally, I'm just hoping that politicians obey the law or be held accountable like anyone else. I would say expecting but it's too much to ask at the moment. | |||

I believe most politicians are self serving, on the left they come across as career politicians who wouldnt survive in the private sector and on the right they come across as what's left of the private sector after all the decent ones have made it to board level and the failures turn to politics.

And now they've got a career politian in Biden, doing much the same as Trump with no one giving a shit. Did the US do so bad under Trump? People disliked Trump because he is Trump nothing was based on anything he did economy wise. As I said earlier, all Politians are self serving, those two are prime examples. Wouldn't vote for either. Funny how everything is so tribal, once someone has formed their views, nothing changes them, no matter how what the otherside does, the opposite all follow down the same pathway following or toeing the line and that goes for both tribes. | |||

And now they've got a career politian in Biden, doing much the same as Trump with no one giving a shit. Did the US do so bad under Trump? People disliked Trump because he is Trump nothing was based on anything he did economy wise. As I said earlier, all Politians are self serving, those two are prime examples. Wouldn't vote for either. Funny how everything is so tribal, once someone has formed their views, nothing changes them, no matter how what the otherside does, the opposite all follow down the same pathway following or toeing the line and that goes for both tribes. What is a "Politian'??" Dunno auto speller changes it to that, from my effort. Suppose it can only work with what it's given. I just accept what it suggest when the squiggly red line pops up. Life's too short to proof read, forum posts. Its not like i'm writing a letter to a politician. If it's wrong it's wrong, it's not like it is to hard to work out what it is supposed to read. | |||

"Genuinely feel a bit sorry for people who can't bring themselves to criticise the political party they support, even when they're blatantly taking the piss. They think they're better and more important than you, and all you can do is defend them. Must be sad living like that. ![]() Johnson(and a sizeable proportion of the Tory party) is mask averse, so that's a possibility. ![]() | |||

Obviously I have, however it's a party held by people that work in an office together not corporate manslaughter. " There were apparently lots of parties. Not just 1. There was allegedly even 1 in Johnson's own flat. And Johnson apparently turned up to at least 1. You think he didn't know anything about any of them? There's also the Stratton vid that showed the utter contempt she and the others had for the rules most of us followed. There's also a Mogg vid showing him laughing and joking about lockdowns/parties, again showing the contempt they held us in. There's also cops and security and CCTV all over No 10. There is no way in hell the cops and Johnson did not know what went on. Then there's the fact every party like this did put lives at risk. Suddenly that manslaughter you mentioned sounds more relevant. Then there's the tiny fact Johnson is supposedly the PM. The guy with whom the buck stops. And he's supposed to be honest and set some sort of example, esp in a pandemic. Yet he continually lies and runs away from any sort of responsibility. His actions tells us all he doesn't give a damn about the rules most of us followed. And he thinks those rules do not apply to him and his. | |||

I’d be pretty sure he has plenty of snitches within the party who report stuff back to him! | |||

"When are people going to wake up? Quite frankly these people have worked their nads off to try and protect us. Furthermore, they worked together throughout their long days.

What is being reported is not really any different. " It is An arranged works do with awards/ secret Santa etc would not have been allowed on that date. Lots of workers worked hard all year round but they were not allowed them, so they would have been breaking rules at that time if it turns out to be true There was one this morning being reported that they had worked all day and got some drinks in and had a drink before going home, I think that would have been different if they stayed to socially distanced rules. | |||

Heaven forbid they actually had to do some proper work for once - in between giving lucrative contracts to their mates and having affairs. Meanwhile healthcare workers, who worked infinitely harder during the same time, have felt the full force of the pandemic. They should be leading by example. To demand the country do one thing, whilst they do the opposite is insane and it's people like you that will cause this country to be walked over by these idiots for a long time to come. | |||

Strange people assume what went on in the house next door is nothing to do with Boris. Boris represents the Conservative Party and the current UK Government, therefore he is culpable if others act illegally under his umbrella. The issue is NOT the parties, the main issue is that 'your glorious' leader is of a lying, scheming and deceitful character and that is the issue. He knows exactly what went on, I suspect some of them he and his wife was present in person. Sooner he's gone, the better.. | |||

He may have been trying to deny a different party, or attended in such a way that his worda could possibly have been almost correct, in those limited circumstances. I think a UK Prime Minister is expected to have considerably higher standards than Trump mostly got away with. The threshold for reaching an intolerable point may be reached here. | |||

Given this happened just after the end of the day, yiud imagine some were still "at school" and would have heard it, even if they were unaware beforehand. And presumably these "students" were told clearly they couldn't have a party. The fact they ignored the edict isn't a great sign of how well Boris can lead. And in finding out their may have been an illegal party, for a head to say no party happened and if it did it rulesnwere for followed etc is just pretty shit. It's taken a fuck load of evidence for him to even investigate. Again, poor leadership. Especially when they are his laws. Im amazed the free pass he is stil getting from some. | |||
