If he's issued an FPN*.
Very clever and puts the ball back into Johnson's court.
*Durham Police have already said that they do not issue FPN's retrospectively, so he won't need to resign even of found guilty of breaking the lockdown rules. |  |

All fines are retrospective unless you do it right in front of a copper Shirley? |  | | |

Yeah. But their policy on covid fines is not to issue fines for historical offenses, such as rom a year or two ago.
When they were asked to look into Cummings trip to Barnard Castle Durham Constabulary said it had a policy against issuing Covid fines retrospectively.
“Durham Constabulary has not taken retrospective action against any other person.” | |

Win Win for him, after the local elections, he hasn't made the gains he'd hoped in the North and without the Red Wall and Scotland they don't have a chance, he's probably thinking about taking the moral high ground, throw Boris under a bus and go back into the Private Sector. |  |

The only thing the Tory party can do at the moment is attempt to get through the next couple of days without any idea what comes after that.
The tame hacks they've been feeding this crap too all weekend might even notice the problem:

Apparently a 6 detective team will be working on this for 4-6 weeks - taking party political hat off surely that is just mental and an absolute waste of resource. Surely 2 people for a week can sort it quite easily!
He has no option but to resign if issued an FPN after Rishi comments, and also it will help delineate Labour and the Tories being 'all the same' |  |

The one thing you are forgetting is that BJ hasn't got a moral compass, so that action by Starmer (if it does happen) will have no impact on our PM whatsoever. |  |

But those Tory MPs who are in seats that become very vulnerable in a general election well understand the impact of this on marginal voters despite a week of partisan hackery.
There's a very good reason Steve Baker has already been vocal about Johnson here. | |

It forces him closer to the edge.
Clearly shows what line the next general election will be fought on. The last was Brexit, the next GE is going to be about Truth. |  | | |

That will be fun.
I don’t see the Tories or Labour coming out well from an election campaign based on Truth. Might bring them both down. |  |

I saw this earlier, which suggests the red wall performance was actually better than we thought a few days ago.

Good strategy to do this. There are only 2 outcomes and they both make Johnson look silly
1) KS receives a FPN and resigns, showing he has the integrity to fall on his sword when Johnson didn't.
2) KS doesn't receive a FPN and it's reinforced that he followed the rules when Johnson didn't. | |

He was also claiming his losing the whip was the reason for the boroughs Labour lost. | |

I like the way he says Labour didn’t gain many seats in net terms, and then goes on to say the results were not as good as 2018 despite Labour making a larger net gain in councillors and councils this time than in 2018… [Post edited 9 May 2022 16:51]

It's very interesting to see Beth Rigby become to Starmer what people perceived Laura Kuenssberg be for Johnson. | |

Also, the Durham Constabulary will now have to be very very sure of their investigation before they throw a former DPP under the bus. | | | |

Just btw, has anyone glanced over at Dan hodges on twitter re this stuff? He's seems to have slightly lost it / gone all fighty. | |

Not so sure, it just looks like he's pulled a lawyer trick and dove through a loop hole. See what the PoPo say but if he's found in breach fine or no fine isn't going to make a difference.
If anyone else were in his place they would have made same song and dance about Boris so you can't blame them but having gone on about it so much Durhamgate was always going to make them look silly esp after the Raynor denials which let's face it they know full we she was there.... He's might save his job with his loophole statement but they shadow of lawyer BS won't do him any favours.
He's got form to hasn't he, when he hit that cyclist |  |
