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

[Dick Swiveller]

Rumours this morning that there is a recording of the whips' threats / intimidation / blackmail and that it might get released.

Whip Mark Spencer, you say? Sounds tasty. These aren't just any whips.

No idea if genuine

The one for Will Wragg is...well it's something.

Brave of Wragg to put his head above the parapet if so

Yep, taking the piss there

 

[zefarelly]

The list is a lot shorter than I'd expect. Presumably this is only page 1 of 10 ?

Looking at the replies, he's removed the initial post and posted a second time a (more?) redacted version to remove names of people who may be victims, or innocent parties.

Yep, and I'm surprised Francois isn't on there, given what he was allegedly being investigated for last year.

The document looks like one that has been knocking about for a few years and is complete nonsense.

It came out around the time there were "allegations" about Dominic Raab. A member of his staff was sacked and they went to the tabloids.

Yes - at least two years old (I see Rory Stewart there)

1. The list is over 4 years old. The story about the list broke in October 2017.
2. The complete unredacted document can be viewed on observer.com or the full text of it can be viewed on Reddit.
3. It would appear to be a genuine document. If you Google some the the affairs listed they were reported at the time (David Morris, Rudd, Shapps, Boris to name but a few).

The list shows there was already a questionable culture and inappropriate behaviour in the Conservative Party long before Boris became MP. The prevalence of getting "handsy" with researchers suggests boozy lunches which, in turn, supports the notion Westminster likes a drink and regularly blurs the lines between work and play, so feeding in to the narrative of lockdown parties.

Gosh, Truss and Kwarteng

I believe this has been referenced in Private Eye a few times, I'm sure that if it was false and a law suit had occurred, there would have been a retraction and apology by now....I'd assume it's true.

The Telegraph has just published some more details from the parties involving about 30 people that took place in the basement of Downing Street the night before Prince Philip’s funeral, which have come from witness reports, text messages and photos:

Downing Street staff partied from around 6pm until 1am in a seven-hour drinking session, text messages seen by the Telegraph indicate.

People were served wine and spirits with mixers in plastic disposable cups, with alcohol at one point getting spilled on an office printer

The people at the parties played loud music on a laptop and ordered four large takeaway pizzas.
A photograph seen by the Telegraph showed No 10 staff - some with drinks - gathered in the Downing Street basement, backing up accounts published earlier this month.

The existence of photographs could become a point of focus for Sue Gray’s investigation. The Telegraph has opted not to publish these for source protection.

Some attendees are alleged to have gone down a child slide belonging to Wilf Johnson, Boris Johnson’s son. It has previously been reported that Wilf’s swing was broken that night.

All this won't worry Johnson or incriminate him, he was not there at the time so all these details of partying put him in a good light.... " Not me guv ". This will help pin the blame on a " culture " rather than the man at the top who will then demand vehemently the right to clean up the mistakes ( not by me ) that occurred on his watch.

Throw enough people under the bus and eventually one of them will have something to bring him down with.

Rory Stewart is not a fan of Boris.

Rory Stewart is not a fan of Boris.

Nor is he an MP anymore.
