They say that Johnson is a stupid person's idea of a clever person.

One theory..
Which would help legally but not politically..
Would suggest they know they are in the shit.

Highly unlikely no one took a a photo if there were 40 people there, even if it was illicit. Papers would protect a source and pay them handsomely.
B / Acknowledge the party, say he was misled, have a night of the long knives moment and fire a load of people. Result is he looks stronger, at least for now. If he genuinely didn't know then this is the right thing, although it shows he doesn't know what is happening in his own backyard.
C / Admit he knew about it and misled people, explain that Covid has been hard on us all and offer to resign in the coming months and apologise for letting people down? Slim chance, honourable of sorts, would ruin his reputation and future career.
D / Push back at Labour. Highlight their inconsistencies and misdemeanours (of which there are some, but no where near as bad Covid wise) and accuse them of trying to undermine trust in the government and put lives at risk with a story that is a year old etc?
I can't think of a realistic alternative option.
I'm Voting for A, followed by D. Option B would be fun.
It's a weak B!

Re: The Two-faced, hypocritical Buffoon and his Party set for a Mauling at PMQ's Today..
The thing is that the public fall for his bumbling bafoon nonsense time after time after time. This is the problem with politics and a problem with the plenty that don't engage, even though it's never been easier to access good solid information.
Plenty of people choose politicians based on their characteristics, and align them to themselves or what they find funny, charming, idiosyncratic etc. It doesn't seem to be about policy anymore.
Boris is a nasty piece of work, he cares only about himself, but never mind, he acts like a bumbling relative who has had one too many sherry's at wedding party. His behaviour is contrived to a certain degree, it's a smokescreen that has seen the bastard get away with plenty since his university days. No doubt he'll survive this.
Cue pleb fodder defending his actions on some shitty high street on the news tonight. Depending on the narrative of course.

Re: The Two-faced, hypocritical Buffoon and his Party set for a Mauling at PMQ's Today..
He broadly survived that. No knock out blows, can hide behind an investigation and then fire whoever is found to have broken any rules.
Won't wash with the public much, but lives to fight another day.
I don't mind Starmer, he often wins PMQ's but he will be disappointed there a bit, I think.
-
Re: The Two-faced, hypocritical Buffoon and his Party set for a Mauling at PMQ's Today..
The PM began by taking the wind out of Starmer's sails by stating his previous remarks were based on information he was given but that he had asked the Cabinet Secretary to enquire about the events on the 18 DEcember 2020 so that action could be taken against the individuals concerned. As a result Starmer failed to land a glove on Johnson. While I believe Johnson should resign there surely must be questions about Starmer's competence. He failed miserably to land a blow and the PM lives to fight another day.

Sunak is a snake oil salesman
He talks a good game though
Perfect replacement for Boris

Starmer has the strike power of runny cheese
Corbyn was crap , this bloke is even worse
Get rid

Re: The Two-faced, hypocritical Buffoon and his Party set for a Mauling at PMQ's Today..
The very nature of PMQs allows the subject to be deflected. So many back bench Tories ask totally unrelated questions (as they're entitled to) but it certainly takes the wind out of the opposition's sails.

The political landscape has changed as well. Society seems to have become nastier, less caring. Politicians on all sides have contributed towards that over the past 20 years or so, in my opinion.

I don't think anyone landed a real knockout .
The trouble is folk may see it as playing politics as Boris said , North Shropshire by election will reveal more in my view than Ian zzzzzzzzz Blackford who just gripes about everything , in a party who have had their share of Covid MP /advisors hiccups

The labour party are completely irrelevant in their present form , a busted flush
A reorganisation of Liberal minded parties is need or we will be stuck with this horseshit gang for ever

Re: The Two-faced, hypocritical Buffoon and his Party set for a Mauling at PMQ's Today..
Has he actually admitted the party took place yet? He seemed to just apologise for the video footage.
Edit - ah, he said he doesn't know yet.

He's a crafty so and so.....the 'party' was held on 18 December. He made a major announcement on new restrictions on 19 December

Thing is, politicians usually like to end on a completed project. Maybe if he gets us through winter to the spring when the latest round of Covid shite is over then there may be serious moves to replace him - presumably with Sunak.
I heard he’s waiting to see if Lee Mack or David Mitchell packs in. He’d be a right fit on that show.

Although I believe London was moved to Tier 3 on 16 December which the party it seems contravenes.

Re: The Two-faced, hypocritical Buffoon and his Party set for a Mauling at PMQ's Today..
There are also certain allowable meetings in key government/departments buildings that were not included in the rulings .
The disappointment for me was the opposition banging on for half an hour about Xmas parties and the issues about the whistleblowing and Afghanistan took a long back seat ,more interested in cheese's and wine .
I also think there will be those in the Labour Party feel Boris did not get a real bad mauling from Sir Keir more like a scratching with a few jokes written for him about Ant & Dec , hey ho , on we go ??
Now the hornets nest is stirred I'm waiting on the rest of the revelations for others outside of the Tories I just can't believe they were all locked down behaving themselves ticking all the Covid rule boxes ?

Of course there were rules and regulations that made it ok for them. That's the whole point - they are the ones who make the rules!
