BreakTheLaw Boris

Re: BreakTheLaw Boris

Here's your quote

Honestly, its unbelievable and somewhat shameful how you are okay with the status quo.

You decide if it's general or personal!

If you aren't offering a viable solution then by default I think the accusation can be made that you are supporting the status quo. However, like I said, I think after that point you did offer a solution - one that I dont think would work personally.

You seem a good egg, I'm sure you don't support human traficking and people smugglers, so I'm sure you are as keen to find a solution to the problem as anyone else.

Re: BreakTheLaw Boris

It's a good line, that's why the apologists keep using it, but the furore is not about cake and wine.

It's about Johnson making a law, being on television (it seemed like every day) telling people not to break it as lives were at stake, and people following the law to the extent that family members died alone - then lying about having broken that same law multiple times to parliament, refusing to resign for lying in breach of the ministerial code, and becoming the first PM to get sanctioned by the police in office.

It's not that juicy? It's the juiciest scandal involving a Prime Minister in history! It's got death, criminality and moral bankruptcy.

Or it's about cake.

It is not about cake, wine or party poppers.

It is about a narcissistic serial liar waving two fingers at the people he is supposed to serve - and remaining in power.

It is simple really.

You probably give me too much credit. I'd like to believe your fixation with this is all about human traffickers and people smugglers (how do you smuggle someone seeking asylum?) rather than the people themselves and the populist issue it bellows because the political party you currently hold in thrall think its a vote winner at the ballot box in a few weeks time.

To come back to your original proposition, on that basis, I'm not as keen to find a solution to this problem as anyone else as I guess most people think this is a bigger problem than I do.

I'm not fixated on the issue. This is a messageboard. If someone responds to something I have said, I will try and have the courtesy to respond. I should review that policy sometimes!

I said before, I dont think it's the greatest issue facing the country, but it's possible to do lots of things at once, and I do think this is an issue that needs sorting.

Anyway, you are mixing the the threads up now. This is the one where everyone posts how much they hate Boris, not the one where everyone posts how much they hate Priti Patel.

My recollection of this thread (clue, it's checkable) is that this was focused on Johnson's sins then someone posted that the Rwandan policy was a diversionary tactic from Johnson's fine and you switched the conversation to the policy and have posted in this thread a couple of dozen times on the policy since.

What's yours?

Ah,so you are right. We are all saying the same things in both threads now.

Best let this one get back to the Boris topics..
