[Politics] Tory meltdown finally arrived [was: incoming]...

Did he?
You must know?

If you are going to pick an argument, you might as well start with yourself.

A party took place in the number 11 flat (Johnson’s home) o. The evening of 13 November 2020. We know this as fact because Sue Gray felt it a serious enough breach to refer to the Met. Johnson has been asked repeatedly if he was present. All he says is, “I won’t comment on a matter currently being investigated by the police.”

If he wasn’t there, he would simply say so. But he can’t, because he was. I don’t think anybody needs a Met police report to know Johnson was at the ABBA party in his own home that Friday night. If the Sue Gray report had been published in full in would be a matter of public record already.

We don’t need the Met to tell us what the Gray report already states.

Glad you got that off your chest, probably best not to comment on an ongoing police investigation eh?

I see you got the memo.

Sad state of affairs, a man having a beer deemed more news worthy than Lord Ahmed of Rotherham (yes that Rotherham) being sent to prison for 5 years for rape of a child.

The difference being that Lord Ahmed left the Labour Party in 2013, resigning prior to being pushed for anti-semitism, whereas Boris Johnson, as serving Prime Minister, made a set of rules around indoor gatherings U.K. law, then promptly broke them repeatedly himself.

While Labour expelled their wrongdoer long before the recent crimes he has been found guilty of were reported to authorities, Boris Johnson remains Prime Minister and is currently being robustly defended by a cabal of sycophants within the Conservative Party. He is determined not to resign, and large swathes of the Conservative Party lack the moral compass to take the decision from his hands. Let me know if I’ve missed anything.

Good point. It’s hardly been mentioned on the news, in the papers, in Parliament, on the radio. Or anywhere.

Anti semitism in the Labour Party?
I’m shocked I tell yer.

Which was correctly investigated and the culprit expelled. Law-breaking in the Conservative Party? Rally round him boys, we must keep power!

Indeed, and if found guilty the key must be thrown away.
But what has that got to do with Johnson having a beer on his birthday?
( Full disclosure, I had a beer on my birthday last year)

Why do you think the issue is Johnson having a beer on his birthday? Nobody gives a shit whether he had a beer on his birthday or not. A little like Watergate wasn’t about a petty burglary.

The subsequent cover up and wilful lying and multiple breaches of the ministerial code regarding lying to Parliament is the issue. But then you know that
