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!!!

The buck stops with the Prime Minister. The clue is there in the job title, even if it is quite subtle..

You don't know any of that, but it is like saying all the staff in Asda had a party in the store and the management didn't know

Whoever had the party, knew about the party, or attended the party, and did not report the party, should be held to the same standard as any of us would be for the same breaches of the law as it was at the time

I don’t know if Boris was responsible or not, but this time last year there was a function on here to report anyone you suspected were meeting or looking to meet. People were actually kicked off the site.

If as a community we were doing the right thing I’m damn sure I’d expect the same of my government

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.

It was a dangerous area at the time and we rightly expect our public servants to adhere to the highest standards. Certainly they must respect the laws during periods of crisis, when the ultimate cost of not doing so can be the loss of lives.

These allegations should have been completely responded to in the quickest time possible, especially as we are currently entering a new period of uncertainty and risk and following new legal restrictions being implemented. It's vital that the public do not perceive that rules aren't relevant for the elite, just for them.

It's atrocious leadership to have let this fester, even worse if the allegations are true.

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.

We, like many others did the right thing last year and that was to not see our grandchildren and share Christmas with them..

You might think it ok to dredge the depths of whataboutery to excuse a complete piss take by those meant to at least abide by the rules they wrote for the country, but many don't share that..

And for some, it was to be the last Christmas that they were to be alive and yet they and us put our needs aside, to respect the law and to support the greater good. It's inexcusable for people to not have followed the restrictions.

Considering how many people were said to have attended the party, for you to believe that he didn't know it happened is insane.

If you want to help to increase exponential growth rates, in an area with a severe crisis, they could ignore evidence and play let's pretend, not giving a fuck about those further down the line, who could die. Morally bankrupt really.

Boris and his circus are mugging the public off - their strategy is just to deny everything and hope it just goes away, but it's a slippery slope that is gathering pace. I have this feeling that something is going to break this government well before the next election

Laura Kunessberg wasn't at that party. 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.

Must be prettier disconcerting - to say the least - for anyone who missed a funeral, couldn't hold a loved one's hand whilst they passed, couldn't visit a friend in need. This sort of thing matters. Appearances matter, when you're asking those you govern to comply, the least you can do is comply yourself and as far is as reasonable make sure your staff / aids do too.

An apology at the outset was probably what most wanted, but lies and laughter?

The recording of Rees-Mogg and friends guffawing away, was appalling and reminded me just of how they see the divide between the 'haves', have mores' and 'have nots'.

People are being prosecuted right now for gatherings that happened on that date.

Should they be let off? 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'm with the last bit of the original post. Those obsessed with politics assume everyone is. In general I couldn't give two hoots about Politics. In my 50's and only ever voted twice in a GE and both times was to vote against someone I thought would be bad for the country in general.

Well that was an interesting PMQs…

So we have gone from there not being a party to him seemingly not knowing there was a party, but if there was a party those people would be thrown under the bus! But I don’t know.. ooh let’s have an inside enquiry!!!!!!!!

He knows…. We know…..

But let’s not look back, eh!!!!……..

That was about as bad a performance as I can remember

"What happens in his house is his responsibility and those who attended ‘said party’ knew the rules and the risks.

I am responsible for ME and no one else

It may have broken the rules but the Labour witch hunt is ridiculous! Laura Kunessberg can’t decide who’s camp she is in and media posts say she was there!!

I wouldn’t vote for Kier Starmar EVER … he less out of touch with his public than Boris is!!

You honestly think that? You really believe that? I mean.. I know Boris has his apologists, he even has his supporters. But wow.

I'm with the last bit of the original post. Those obsessed with politics assume everyone is. In general I couldn't give two hoots about Politics. In my 50's and only ever voted twice in a GE and both times was to vote against someone I thought would be bad for the country in general.

Don't know, as I said I'd have to be forced to vote for either. Couldn't care either way. Boris has made a career as MP, PM and Mayor of not doing much but getting away with the little he does. 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.

Be nice to see how a person who has actually been in business running the country would get on, someone like a Sugar or Branson.

What some serm to be missing is Boris is compulsive liar.

Lies to parliament.

Lies to queen

Pushes for agreements then prepared to break law because says was shit deal.

Now the xmas party anyone that believes it did not take part are clearly in need of specsavers.

And to say in parliament today 1st he knew about it was when video was posted online pure nonsense.

Quite simply he was ready in my opinion a dangerous politician and now just wait for more revelations.

He should walk and the cabinet ministers backing his stance should go as well.

I have followed rules jabbed etc not because Boris dictates matters but to reduce risk of covid and any restrictions that follow will be ignored.

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.

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.

People saying Boris should know what is going on in his house.

Facts, 10 Downing Street has over 100 rooms plus is linked to other buildings by passages, ie The Cabinet offices again with multiple rooms.

No 10 is staffed by over 170 people.

So tell me if you were asleep/watching tv in your top floor flat would you know what was happening in your basement?

Before you start ranting, just thing how many of you have gone into a flooded bathroom a messy kitchen because you didn't know what your children were upto in the next room.

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.

yes we know that Downing Street is not just a average townhouse but do you actually believe that Boris knew absolutely nothing about any party or parties that were going to happen or did? I’d be pretty sure he has plenty of snitches within the party who report stuff back to him!

Quite frankly these people have worked their nads off to try and protect us. Furthermore, they worked together throughout their long days. So they may have relaxed afterwards and maybe even had a small drink - jeez, no different to any other organisation.

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.

Rubbish. 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.

Boris doesn't do anything. It is all sorted out by others and then he comes out and says what he is told to say, which is why he cannot cope if someone asks a question that he has not been given the answer too. If he thinks it is good he appears himself but if the shit is flying he rolls out Sunak, Raab or some other underling. Even his missus has got him away from things this weekend.

It was COBRA Lager, we've got ot all wrong. 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.

yes and I believe Boris called for their sacking of resignation. Certainly the case with the Scottish chief medical officer who did leave her job

Either Boris or his "senior management" team knew. Which is bad given they wrote the rules.

Or they didn't. Which shows they aren't aware of what their teams are doing. And weren't able to communicate a clear message down to the team to not have a party. Which is probably worse.

And the reluctance to even own sorting this out but going into denial mode is a shit look too.

If working hard was a justification for a party, then it should have been in the rules.

(I'm assuming you parties happened in the foreign office, given they are a 9-5. Allegedly).

This is not a ' all as bad as each other job'. "

I am afraid that you are wrong!

Captain Hindsight whinges about 2nd jobs and himself was found to have a second job, providing Legal Advice using Parliamentary premises and equipment and earning over 100K.

Captain Hindsight whinges about parties, but is pictured at one himself enjoying a beer!

Think his father bought the fake exams rather than pay for the full school experience.

I worked with a guy once with Degrees and other qualifications. He was as thick as pig sh1t. Then one day my manager looked up his certificates and contacted the colleges he claimed to have been to.

Turns out, he'd enrolled, did the first few weeks then backed out and bought the certificates.

Sacked 24 hours later.

You are quite right.

You had Labour MPs and councilors attending funerals with hundreds of people that had nothing to do with each other, so a few people from the same office is nothing.

Labour MP travelling round the country after being diagnosed with Covid, if I remember correctly KS was also seen socialising during lockdown..

Personally it does not matter to me what political party it is. A PM cannot be seen to ridicule the country and its people in that way and risk losing respect both domestically and internationally. Its also not quite the same when an MP or other rank of politician does it.

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.

Don't care about them having parties or mixing, they can do what they like. But what people don't see is more important, they wasn't scared of catching covid or even dying from it. Makes you think what do they know that they're not telling us?

What came to mind, that they're not telling you? How many £millions of contracts they've pushed to their mates?

Certainly, the evidence of Covid, its abilities to cause widespread disability, deaths, serious illness, not to mention harming the country etc, is all long since fully established.

What does it tell you if government officials have a party while they are warning their population about a deadly virus making the rounds and to stay at home and minimise socialising at all costs? Particularly when you know that the government officials attending the party would fit the high risk category of this highly dangerous infectious disease?

There is little to no fucking risk!!! That's what it tells me anyway...

with what else is happening with omicron I think it will go quiet for a while and people will have less rawness to what we feel now. Same with earlier mistakes.

Even if Boris was unaware, the t appears soem of his "deputy heads" were, perhaps were even at the parties. 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.
