Back a lying leader who is predicted to get 3 more fines for breaking the law, or face the prospect of their face/quotes being used against them as supporting a lying leader in any future elections. |  | | |  |

Interesting that Johnson having sent out Brandon Lewis to lie for him this morning is now not backing the line he was given to peddle. Which was comparing it to a speeding ticket. This was clearly the agreed and whipped line as other more sympathetic broadcasters and commentators were using it from 10:30 last night. |  | |  |

What are we talking about though? A birthday party. That's without highlighting those members of the ruling party monetizing the pandemic for financial gain.

You do realise that it isn't the Tories calling for this vote right? The opposition have been calling for it purely so they can draw out Boris supporters which will then be used again them when/if further issues come to like in next 2 weeks. From the opposition it's a no-brainer strategy which keeps the issue in the news, (the vote) the results be used immediately as "Tories voting to protect them from their own rules" and then subsequently tailored local attacks for each MP who voted in support in advance of May elections and probably beyond. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

Yes. That's why I'm saying it's an astonishingly stupid strategy. |  |

Hang out with Johnson long enough and eventually he'll make you carry the can for some misdemeanour of his. A whole cabinet of useful idiots is how he sees them. Publicly soiling yourself trying to protect him then becomes the kompromat - "Come on, Brandon, you've done it before; you can do it again ..." |  | |  |

It's part and parcel of the negligence. In fact, it throws the negligence and incompetence into an even worse lie because not only were they half-arsing it, using it as an excuse to enrich their mates, they were also blatantly taking the piss with it as well. |  |

They've blocked all investigation into those things you mention up to now and said no public inquiry until late 2022/early 2023. In politics you go after the avenue open and the Met Police investigating the law breaking on Covid laws is a valid thing to push. Even if it appears trivial in comparison |  | |  |

The incompetence and negligence that led to the 170,000 plus deaths will have to wait until an enquiry, which is supposed to come some time 'in the future'. Despite desperate attempts by the Tories, these were not 'one offs', or an inadvertent meeting in the corridor - but a long running contempt for the law, led by a bloated buffoon who thinks he is above the law. And being within the walls of number 10 they could do what they wanted, unseen, But of far greater concern is that as a consequence the walrus of waffle lied to Parliament about the matter. Not once by repeatedly over months. There lies the greater offence, as common practice has that any minister 'misleading' the house should redign a s a matter of course. However, despite their howls of outrage, opposition MPs don't want the hippo to resign (they know he is too vain to), and prefer him to stay. A one-man destructive computer virus inside the Tory Party. As witnessed by his absence from Tory electoral literature, and his appearance on opposition leaflets. In a poll published yesterday over 70% of UK voters thought him a liar, and incompetent. The opposition fear a more competent leader might emerge from any leadership battle. At the moment the lasting damage to the Tory party is priceless to the opposition - with the Tory party being viewed through the prism of the freaks and dimwits who are stupid enough to deny (in public) that he lied.... Fabricant, Dorries, Ress-Mogg, Curry. Carry on bloater, must be the watchword [Post edited 19 Apr 2022 14:38]

He does, except possibly for the first line “the PM knows what he is”. I’m not sure he does. He seems to think norms, rules and laws don’t apply to him. I wouldn’t be surprised if he genuinely doesn’t understand what he’s done wrong. He doesn’t seem to be able to tell right from wrong. A typical sociopath. |  |

Fabricant is always a state in the HOC. His jackets are usually dirty and covered in a deluge of dandruff. I honestly think he probably just turns up to get wan*ered and do what he's told to do in exchange for a pint and a go on Michael Gove's secret ingredient. |  |

Blimey, powerful stuff. I don’t understand how Johnson can sit through this then try and claim there were no parties/he didn’t know anything/all rules were followed/he wasn’t there/he was there but only briefly. I’d be mortified and want to hide under a rock. Again, sociopath is the only answer. As for Fabric *nt, he just thinks it’s a game. And a lot of them do. It all comes back to winning in their private school and Uni debating societies at all costs. That’s all that matters to some (I’ve worked with a few and presumably you have too if you’re in the CS). |  |

'Funny' Tories are invariably the worst Tories. Johnson was a 'funny' Tory. Rees-Mogg was a 'funny' Tory. They're always the ones with the vilest beliefs, the least amount of competence and the stupidest, most cult-like followings. |  |
