Not enough is being made of the fact that, by his own admission, 15:03 - Jan 12 with 1404 viewsArnoldMoorhen

Boris Johnson is the kind of boss who "invites" his "staff" to an "after-work" "event" to "thank them", but asks them to bring their own drinks.

What an ar53h0l3.

footers: Hey, ArnoldMoorhen! I'm having a dinner party on Friday, want to come?

AM: That sounds lovely, what's on the menu?

footers: I don't know - you're bringing the food.

The Tories always put Party before country so they will only oust him when they are ready - the question is, "is he still our useful idiot?"

Because, at least in part, he'll have been told he can't buy them booze from public funds.

Who paid for the wine at the drinks receptions hosted at No 10 for eg 2005 Ashes winners or Noel Gallagher and the Britpop gang?

Regardless, he could have paid for it himself. Or asked one of his millionaire friends to foot the bill. So still very much an ar53h0l3.

I just assumed that they were aware of the danger of being found out so didn't want any record of buying loads of food and drink for hosting the party / didn't expect that email to leak.

Has anyone ever looked at their own postings for last day or so? Oh my... so sorry. Was Ullaa

He'd bring a 2l plastic bottle of cheap cider and get stuck into the decent stuff that other people had brought along.

In this case White Lightning struck twice in the same garden within a matter of days!

(It was either that or: Possibly not the first time he'd asked some of them to raise his Woodpecker to their lips.)

Isn't this actually the clearest indication that it was not a work event? If it was, everything would have been provided by our taxes. (Although I expect it was all claimed on expenses anyway.)

The civil servants working there would not have been able to claim anything like that on expenses or anything else. It doesn’t work that way. Boris and his crowd? No idea, but if he told me it was daylight, I’d check out of the window.

They'll have claimed it back on expenses so it's not the of the world for them. But still a bit tight.

The government did, as they were legitimate government receptions and not a mere jolly for staff.

So, as I say, absolute proof it was not business.

You'd better get AM to bring haslet sandwiches then old fruit.

We have no village green, or a shop. It's very, very quiet. I can walk to the pub.

This is the problem. He is tainted and not the party that supports/encourages/enables him.

The local elections will be a kick in the teeth for them, they will change leader and their voters will gather around lovely Priti and vote her to another landslide in the next General Election. Who doesn't like a good old-fashioned public execution?
