So Charlotte Owen who worked for Johnson as a SpAd for seven months, get’s made a life peer. She has a striking resemblance to Johnson but that could of course just be coincidence. Just as the super injunction that stops the media talking about it.

So a lifetime in receipt of public money (our money)! For what exactly?

All seems right and above board!

Tbf the rumour that she’s one of Johnson’s offspring is the more palatable of the two I’ve heard.

Wouldn't be at all surprised if we learn down the line she's another of Johnson's conquests.

Whatever you think of the appointment. I think the rumour that she is Boris' child really needs to stop.

She has her parents (father deceased) and its absolutely ridiculous that this young woman is having to deal with this bollocks.

Additionally, there is no proof of any injunction. You're usually an advocate for stopping the dreading of mistruths.

I seriously hope not because I think she may be one of his huge gaggle of offspring judging by her pictures. Good job child benefit is capped at two kids! Maybe THAT is why SKS is going to keep it to two kids...Johnson alone would empty DWP’s coffers!

Do you have proof of Boris being her father?

Proof of any super injunction?

I highly doubt it, you're just spitting nonsense fed to you by the left.

Hmmm there is speculation in foreign press about a super injunction gagging the British press. Maybe she isn’t his daughter and was just one of his shags? He defo has a type and she fits the mould perfectly.

But gossip aside...

What did she do to deserve being made a life peer?

Of course, they've no proof.....!

All they have is levity & pooh-pooh....!!

I initially said 'whatever you think of the appointment'. I personally can't see how she deserves a peerage but I'd probably struggle with half of them in that house.

'Speculation' isn't proof of anything. It is quite sad to see you going down this route, maybe I shouldn't really be surprised though.

Of course speculation isn’t proof. The beauty of a super injunction is that, like fight club, nobody can talk about it. So we’ll probably never know. Personally I think if someone is going to receive around £117k a year of public money, then we should be told why?

Then again you also know I cannot be objective when it comes to Johnson because I genuinely loathe him.

Let’s be clear. Charlotte Owen has done NOTHING to deserve a life peerage. NOTHING. A SpAd for seven months. Even then her CV is disputed. Maggie Thatcher was in public service for 33yrs before being made a Baroness. If it isn’t nepotism then It stinks of yet more corruption!

I always here this 'the beauty of a super injuction', whilst it's true, it's also bollocks, I can easily say there's a super injunction about anything without any reprise.

Charlotte Owen has also done NOTHING to involve her in this bullshit. Hate on Johnson all you like but dragging a young woman into the hatred for him is nothing short of fucking bully behaviour.

I disagree. She is 100% complicit. She has done nothing to deserve a life peerage so something is not right. As my taxes will be paying her for the rest of my life I want to know why. Why not make a public statement if all is fine and above board. I would love to know what she did to warrant £117k a year of our money!

It illustrates the flaws in our honours system. ANYONE and EVERYONE who is in receipt of public money should be open to scrutiny.

Exactly. Rumour.

We see on here quite often, certain folk saying they'll reserve judgement on rumours until facts are available.

Those same folk are happy to conspire to spread rumour if it's an individual they don't like.

No complicit in getting a very lucrative life peerage awarded her by Johnson for apparently having done nothing of any note in public service.

Also your “dragging a young woman” comment. Is it because of her age or that she is a woman that you object to her being open to scrutiny?

Don’t know about Houchen.

Kempsell is a friend of Carrie, I’m led to believe.

'Speculation' isn't proof of anything. It is quite sad to see you going down this route, maybe I shouldn't really be surprised though.

Of course speculation isn’t proof. The beauty of a super injunction is that, like fight club, nobody can talk about it. So we’ll probably never know. Personally I think if someone is going to receive around £117k a year of public money, then we should be told why?

Then again you also know I cannot be objective when it comes to Johnson because I genuinely loathe him.

Let’s be clear. Charlotte Owen has done NOTHING to deserve a life peerage. NOTHING. A SpAd for seven months. Even then her CV is disputed. Maggie Thatcher was in public service for 33yrs before being made a Baroness. If it isn’t nepotism then It stinks of yet more corruption!

I always here this 'the beauty of a super injuction', whilst it's true, it's also bollocks, I can easily say there's a super injunction about anything without any reprise.

Charlotte Owen has also done NOTHING to involve her in this bullshit. Hate on Johnson all you like but dragging a young woman into the hatred for him is nothing short of fucking bully behaviour.

I disagree. She is 100% complicit. She has done nothing to deserve a life peerage so something is not right. As my taxes will be paying her for the rest of my life I want to know why. Why not make a public statement if all is fine and above board. I would love to know what she did to warrant £117k a year of our money!

100% complicit in what?

People making up rumours about her heritage?

No complicit in getting a very lucrative life peerage awarded her by Johnson for apparently having done nothing of any note in public service.

Also your “dragging a young woman” comment. Is it because of her age or that she is a woman that you object to her being open to scrutiny?"

It's neither but she is a young women. It's nothing more than descriptive.

"What’s your thoughts on the other 30 somethings he nominated Ross Kempsell, a 31-year-old former journalist, and Ben Houchen, the 36-year-old Tees Valley mayor?"

I think any appointment to the HoL that results in being in receipt of public money and being able to have a level of influence over the laws and governance of this country should be open to full and proper scrutiny, by the public.

She is 30. Jennifer Acuri started her affair with Johnson when she was 27 and it all came under scrutiny when she was 34. The term “young woman” is often used to imply innocence or naivety and certainly would not apply to someone in their late 20s early 30s.

THAT is a fair comment. From what I can see they have slightly better credentials but still FAR from enough for what I would expect for entry to HoL. (Pure speculation here) maybe they know where the skeletons are hidden?

You are partially right - people should be picking apart all of these dubious appointments. She should not be the only focus but she also doesn’t get a pass for being slightly round faced and blonde. It’s kind of guilty by association. Johnson has form, a lot of form. Quite easy to see how people speculate. Perhaps she should have been more careful who she associated with? Nobody forces you to accept a peerage and she was already fully aware of the scrutiny she would come under.

I would have no issue if people were attempting to pick apart all appointments.

The issue is she is being singled out. It's bullying, plain and simple.

No complicit in getting a very lucrative life peerage awarded her by Johnson for apparently having done nothing of any note in public service.

Also your “dragging a young woman” comment. Is it because of her age or that she is a woman that you object to her being open to scrutiny?

It's neither but she is a young women. It's nothing more than descriptive.

She is 30. Jennifer Acuri started her affair with Johnson when she was 27 and it all came under scrutiny when she was 34. The term “young woman” is often used to imply innocence or naivety and certainly would not apply to someone in their late 20s early 30s.

And back to the other point...

She is complicit in getting a very lucrative life peerage awarded her by Johnson for apparently having done nothing of any note in public service.

I'd say the same if it was an 'old man', as I said, nothing more than descriptive. You can believe she is complicit in getting a peerage and you can question what she has done to deserve it, irs the unfounded rumour I take issue with.

As Notme brought up. 2 'young' men have also received peerages. Not a fucking word about them

THAT is a fair comment. From what I can see they have slightly better credentials but still FAR from enough for what I would expect for entry to HoL. (Pure speculation here) maybe they know where the skeletons are hidden?

'Still FAR from enough'

I agree with you, as I do agree about Owen.

The point is though, why are people picking on her. Because she's slightly round faced and blonde?

You are partially right - people should be picking apart all of these dubious appointments. She should not be the only focus but she also doesn’t get a pass for being slightly round faced and blonde. It’s kind of guilty by association. Johnson has form, a lot of form. Quite easy to see how people speculate. Perhaps she should have been more careful who she associated with? Nobody forces you to accept a peerage and she was already fully aware of the scrutiny she would come under.

I would have no issue if people were attempting to pick apart all appointments.

The issue is she is being singled out. It's bullying, plain and simple. "

Well is she being subject to THAT much really? You may want proof of the Super Injunction (which by it’s very nature is impossible to provide) but I think the British press are suspiciously pretty quiet about all of this!

I have little sympathy for anyone who enters the public eye or takes money from the tax payers. You shake hands with devil and all that. Pretty sure she weighed things up and decided £117k a year for life was worth a bit of gossip. It’ll blow over.

"So Charlotte Owen who worked for Johnson as a SpAd for seven months, get’s made a life peer. She has a striking resemblance to Johnson but that could of course just be coincidence. Just as the super injunction that stops the media talking about it.

So a lifetime in receipt of public money (our money)! For what exactly?

All seems right and above board!

Whatever you think of the appointment. I think the rumour that she is Boris' child really needs to stop.

She has her parents (father deceased) and its absolutely ridiculous that this young woman is having to deal with this bollocks.

Additionally, there is no proof of any injunction. You're usually an advocate for stopping the dreading of mistruths.

Oh come on have you seen her face!!!!!

Do you have proof of Boris being her father?

Proof of any super injunction?

I highly doubt it, you're just spitting nonsense fed to you by the left.

Hmmm there is speculation in foreign press about a super injunction gagging the British press. Maybe she isn’t his daughter and was just one of his shags? He defo has a type and she fits the mould perfectly.

But gossip aside...

What did she do to deserve being made a life peer?

I initially said 'whatever you think of the appointment'. I personally can't see how she deserves a peerage but I'd probably struggle with half of them in that house.

'Speculation' isn't proof of anything. It is quite sad to see you going down this route, maybe I shouldn't really be surprised though.

Of course speculation isn’t proof. The beauty of a super injunction is that, like fight club, nobody can talk about it. So we’ll probably never know. Personally I think if someone is going to receive around £117k a year of public money, then we should be told why?

Then again you also know I cannot be objective when it comes to Johnson because I genuinely loathe him.

Let’s be clear. Charlotte Owen has done NOTHING to deserve a life peerage. NOTHING. A SpAd for seven months. Even then her CV is disputed. Maggie Thatcher was in public service for 33yrs before being made a Baroness. If it isn’t nepotism then It stinks of yet more corruption!

I always here this 'the beauty of a super injuction', whilst it's true, it's also bollocks, I can easily say there's a super injunction about anything without any reprise.

Charlotte Owen has also done NOTHING to involve her in this bullshit. Hate on Johnson all you like but dragging a young woman into the hatred for him is nothing short of fucking bully behaviour.

I disagree. She is 100% complicit. She has done nothing to deserve a life peerage so something is not right. As my taxes will be paying her for the rest of my life I want to know why. Why not make a public statement if all is fine and above board. I would love to know what she did to warrant £117k a year of our money!

Everyone should be under the same level as scrutiny for the same positions. I've said this many times in terms of governement and opposition.

I haven't said her appointment shouldn't be under the spotlight, just that's its grossly unfair to single her out because she has blonde hair. You're seeing a resemblance because you want to see a resemblance. That is nothing more than confirmation bias.

it's both. She's singled out because she's probably the least justified from a piss poor bunch. But the salaciousness of gossip no doubt helps. The "daughter" rumour seemed to surface after the more obvious "mistress". Probably because it seemed a bigger prize than he normally gives for head. Same reason the NDA #metoo rumour has popped up imo.

The issue is she is being singled out. It's bullying, plain and simple.

Well is she being subject to THAT much really? You may want proof of the Super Injunction (which by it’s very nature is impossible to provide) but I think the British press are suspiciously pretty quiet about all of this!

I have little sympathy for anyone who enters the public eye or takes money from the tax payers. You shake hands with devil and all that. Pretty sure she weighed things up and decided £117k a year for life was worth a bit of gossip. It’ll blow over.

People changing her wiki page to say Johnson is her father etc.

I've already said if everyone else was under the same scrutiny then fair but they aren't.

Ok but that means the rationale is that Everyone has to be under the same level of scrutiny or else nobody can be?

It may be unfortunate (possibly even sexist) that she is under more of a spotlight then the others but does that mean she shouldn’t be under the spotlight? As I have said, Johnson has form and like it or not, there IS a resemblance! If Johnson was gay then I suspect the “young men” would be under the spotlight!

Everyone should be under the same level as scrutiny for the same positions. I've said this many times in terms of governement and opposition.

I haven't said her appointment shouldn't be under the spotlight, just that's its grossly unfair to single her out because she has blonde hair. You're seeing a resemblance because you want to see a resemblance. That is nothing more than confirmation bias. "

I really don’t think it is confirmation bias. I actually don’t “want to see a resemblance”. I can honestly hand on heart say that the first time I saw a picture of her, and at the time it was another “mistress” that was being implied, I thought “blimey she looks a bit like him”. It is the eyes.

It really would not be hard to make an official statement though now would it?

Oh yes, an announcement would just stop all the speculation. There's no danger that the press would use it as an excuse to report on the story, or that anyone would use it against them. That's a brilliant idea.

But I thought it was all above board, nothing to see here, a totally justified peerage? No??? Surely they would want to stop the gossiping and put the record straight wouldn’t they?

There are only four scenarios and 1-3 all generate speculation. If she (and Johnson) didn’t want that to happen and for there to be scrutiny then either be prepared to face it or don’t do it (award a peerage).

1. She is Johnson’s daughter in which case awful and unjustified nepotism.

2. She played hide the sausage and this is her reward (funded by public purse).

3. She has dirt on him so it is basically b l a c k mail.

4. Totally deserving peerage that should be celebrated for her contribution to the UK.

Let's assume it's option 4. Would making a statement kill all the speculation, or would it instead give the press an excuse to print all the speculation?

probably depend on the reasons!

Although imo the press shouldn't leave this one lie... Not from a gossip POV ... But from one of how out democracy works. A big part of discussion since 2016 is "sovereignty" versus "the unelected". If you dont like how the EU works I struggle to see how you can shrug this one off. But would agree this needs to be about Boris and the alcknof accountability in the PM honours, not tabloid gossip on his reasons (as much as I like a gossip!)

I may have worded 1-4 badly but if it os 4 then it cannot be 1-3 so the press would need to be careful of libel laws.

Charlotte Owen will earn c.£5million in her lifetime paid out from tax payers (let alone what other opportunities it provides). We have a right to know why she (or anyone) has been given such an opportunity.

Your right about the same people who bash the EU for having unelected people with hands on policies, usually are very quiet on the HoL and defend decisions like Charlotte Owen.

Has plebs we don't have the right. People still have an illusion average Joe has much power in this country. The country is run by elites for elites. But hey because you can voice an opinion every 4 or 5 years we have the right.

Good point actually!

Feisty you often get tetchy when people fo not focus squarely on the point of a thread or directly respond to the OP. I forgot that but this reminded me.

This thread is about Charlotte Owen not the other people. Anyone should feel free to start a wider ranging thread on HoL appointments, but this is to discuss this particular “young woman”

It was intended to be. I actually DGAF if people want to talk more broadly. It is all decidedly dodgy just as anything touched by Johnson usually is!

Maybe Johnson is secretly a great reformer. And he just keeps making cunning moves to highlight how badly certain institutions/laws/rules need reform in our country.
