They could admit they were working and were sitting too close, and move on. People wear Christmas hats and tinsel at work sometimes in the lead up to Christmas. What in that photo is definitive proof there was a party? It doesn't prove a thing there's not even a drink in view. They have a tape of him hosting a round of a Christmas Quiz, sitting next to a bloke wrapped in tinsel, after he denied knowledge of a party. I think he will struggle to describe it as "work". It now very much looks like he was misrepresenting his knowledge of such things at the dispatch box, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair assessment taken in isolation, but with everything that's come in recent days? Not so sure. Mind you, I'd have thought most people have reached their own conclusions on the matter now anyway. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well if there's also video evidence then fair enough, because the picture itself is hardly the smoking gun people claimed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SemperEadem Posted 11 December 2021 Share Posted 11 December 2021 Is it not that this photo was the 15th and the ‘party’ is the 18th? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SecretPro Posted 12 December 2021 Share Posted 12 December 2021 (edited) There's talk of at least 7 separate parties at number 10, including at least one in his and Carries Flat. This pictures is not from the 18th, its from a separate one on the 15th. Mirror also running story tomorrow of the extremely odious Therese Coffey hosting multiple lockdown drinking sessions in her office too. The smoking gun isn't the picture, it's that this is a separate offence. Edited 12 December 2021 by SecretPro 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Facecloth Posted 12 December 2021 Popular Post Share Posted 12 December 2021 I get what people are saying regarding it being bad for Labour if Johnson goes. Ideally they want him in place for the next election. He's a liability now, and surely would lose an election. But I just want him gone. I can just about stomach a couple more years of a Tory government and rolling the dice on an election in the hope Labour can beat whoever takes over from him, than have to put up with a couple more years if this lying, incompetent charlatan in charge. Anyone would be better, that turd Izzy posted in the Phunny Photos thread would be better. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The smoking gun isn't the picture, it's that this is a separate offence. This is the point for me. Repetitive rule-breaking while they went in hard on us literally at this time last year pushing all the rules back on us. I hope the evidence keeps coming. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CosbehFox Posted 12 December 2021 Share Posted 12 December 2021 As someone else has pointed out the crucial piece of evidence on that photo is that the CCTV in the corner appears to be covered with a bin bag. They knew it wasn’t an acceptable gathering 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw a picture of the room yesterday from a different angle and there's a window behind that bookshelf, and they have green curtains.

RoboFox Posted 12 December 2021 Share Posted 12 December 2021 Starmer’s playing the perfect long game here. Johnson’s walking the Tories into the sea, and the water’s about nose height. It’s absolutely fvcking beautiful. Long may it continue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legend_in_blue Posted 12 December 2021 Share Posted 12 December 2021 Starmer should call out the restrictions for what they are - a waste of time. Apart from that, I like him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rachhere Posted 12 December 2021 Share Posted 12 December 2021 (edited) Boris is just a British Donald Trump isn't he. Lies when it suits him, criticises the media when they call him out on it. I do find this attack on the BBC particularly concerning though. Edited 12 December 2021 by rachhere 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is hoist with his own petard. There’s plenty of stuff around to damage Johnson at the moment (and probably more to come), but I don’t think this virtual quiz thing is one of them. Not many people are going to look at an image of Johnson sitting at a desk staring into a computer screen and have strong feelings about it. The press may be running around screaming like it’s ****ing Watergate, but I don’t think others will see it that way.

pSinatra Posted 12 December 2021 Share Posted 12 December 2021 Death by a thousand cuts. Although, some of those cuts are axe wounds. I'm sure whoever his replacement may be will be a total arse. I'm hoping it's Truss, but any of the potential candidates are god awful. As a nation, regardless of allegiance, we need a change of leadership.
