Looks like a shoddy attempt to cover a camera, surely police in No10 would know if there is a camera there and wonder why it might be covered up? Even Hancock forgot to cover the camera in his office!
Good article that sums things up pretty well…….

Extract :
There is an overpowering fin-de-regime stench emanating from Downing Street that can no longer be ignored. Why do all governments end up taking their voters for fools? Why do they feel that they have the right to break the rules that the rest of us must follow? That senior advisers chose to party at a time when the rest of the country was in a traumatic Christmas lockdown betrays an appalling lack of judgment, but it is their shocking sense of superiority, the sneering elitism and the subsequent lies that are most angering voters.
I feel sorry for Allegra Stratton, who is taking the rap for others’ failings, but she did the right thing in resigning. Yet it won’t be enough: the Government’s incompetence and moral failings are a toxic combination that have cut through. The Partygate video featuring officials joking about wine and cheese was an almost perfect encapsulation of everything the public hates about the political class, and will be devastating for the Government, especially as it comes at the very moment Boris Johnson is proposing to impose new restrictions on our freedoms.

Interesting. Surely there are some other photos from this room somewhere?
Cutbacks from when Labour spent all the world's money
I'm beginning to get your sense of humour now.
Right, I'll have a go....
Everything went wrong when the communist 'labour' party created the NHS. What were they thinking?
Why do all governments end up taking their voters for fools?
Not exactly a stinging condemnation of de Pfeffel.
Have you not spotted certain posters on NSC opining that 'all governments are the same'?
I think they are hoping the disgusted element of the elecorate will slink off, newly cynical, allowing them to make their sneaky tory-till-I-die vote effectively count double at the next election.
It's a plan, certainly

For the bazillionth time - but I don't care.
Chl 4 sent 4 groups of nationals on a free holiday.
The resort was rigged with secret cameras and adversity, Inc a couple of people in on it.
Throughout the week the issues became greater, fueled by the plants.
One rues was 'how will they deal with a queue jumper?'
They all went according to plan except the UK holiday.
The plants in the group couldn't queue jump, despite working for the production company they just couldn't physically jump a queue.
Oh and for the record, all stereotypes where met:-
Japan - quiet withdrawn and insular.
Germany - practical.
USA - pig headed, patriotic but a bit simple.
UK...
...smashed, absolutely w@nkered, for the whole holiday.
Had a great time, didn't even care when all the staff left overnight on the last evening.
I remember that programme, although slightly differently to you. The Japanese surprised everyone by not being as quiet and insular as you say.
I do remember the queue jumping bit but also remember the brits just sitting on their arses waiting for someone to show up and make their breakfast for them when the staff disappeared.

Not so sure - I think this lot have had it…….toxicity goes way too deep (by the time all the pics and stories are out there will be a list as long as your arm of impacted ministers) to have a bit of a ‘cleanse’, replace a few and hope it all dies down……

Silly old bat
It's called a swag, ie a pelmet. I've seen other pictures of this room and it is more clear.

Quite. I was commenting on the sneaky efforts of the 'put a blue rosette on a pig and I'll vote for it' brigade. Politicians are very certainly not all the same. Hopefully there are sufficient disgusted tories with some reach who can pull us back from the brink.
Despite being a labour member I would rather see an internal tory coup and Johnson the liar replaced by someone prepared to drain the tory cabinet swamp and who may actually win the next general election, than see this current oaf cling on, only to be crushed by Starmer in 3 years. Country first, for me.
And I thought swag was something Hancock got from dodgy deals.
But not a bin bag lol
Increasingly looks like he has ‘lost the dressing room’ so we can hope………
Yeah... I think in six months you will still have Boris in charge.

Still have Johnson in charge? For the last couple of years, nobody has been in charge. His ambition is only exceeded by his bone idleness.

I’m going to take a guess, I think there was a party
