Yellow Fever 3,793 Posted December 9, 2021 (edited) So Boris lies and fibs. Nothing new or unexpected there. It's about the only thing he actually does well. The Great Deceiver. The Brexity right needed somebody like him, a pied piper literally to lie, cheat and fib his way to lead the gullible rats to their doom with a good tune. Now that's done he can be dispensed with - after all his lies and fibs have now been seen through and have become liabilities.

Rock The Boat 1,332 Posted December 9, 2021 Time to jettison Johnson. He has served his purpose but grown up governing is not really his thing. Letting him go now also gets rid of cuckoo-in-the-nest Carrie, so a double whammy win. Plenty of good people with the ability to step up, and what's needed is a bit of gravitas and stoicism to replace current sense of final days of Rome. Then a nice steady ship as we sail towards the next election. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yellow Fever 3,793 Posted December 9, 2021 All these 'parties' and the so called Covid Recovery Group ostriches. Suggestion. Lets take all of these Tories. Lock them up for 2 to 3 weeks in nice free hotel with booze, sprayed with Omicron and then ask whoever is left in January what they think we should do? Advantage is that we will have several hundred willing expendable volunteers of a mix of demographics and vaccine status. Think of what we can learn and quickly!

RobJames 881 Posted December 9, 2021 Why would anyone pay for the redecoration of the flat? Presumably there needs to be something in it for the person who is paying? So how could Johnson make sure that there was something in it for them. If nobody ever told him who paid? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KernowCanary 214 Posted December 9, 2021 (edited) In a kick in the nuts twist to all this, on the 18th December three people were found guilty by magistrates for not satisfying the good old tired “reasonable excuse” rule. What they were doing was just as bad as the No.10 scrotes who got away with it. Boris can distance himself as much as he likes from all this by saying he wasn’t there, but he knows full well it took place and did nothing as per usual. He’s weak; not once has he sacked one of his own rule breakers despite being the creators, they left under pressure from the public and MSM.

KernowCanary 214 Posted December 9, 2021 (edited) I hope that when they are finally outed, that the public will never forget the following about the Tories when they gained the vote in 2010…. Here’s what’s happened since…. - The London (& National) riots - The Windrush scandal - A welfare ‘reform’ that meant cuts - Underfunding of critical mental health services - Poor and lax piecemeal handling of a pandemic, always introducing measures when it was already too late (buzzphrases involving horses and bolting I will avoid here) - Then took the **** out of us with a Christmas Party, while all thanks to Boris doing an Olly Cromwell, cancelled it for everyone else and isolated them all from the world and couldn’t say goodbye to their dying loved ones.

Each of the three cases that ended in fines this month would have required evidence from the Metropolitan Police and a decision by the Crown Prosecution Service to proceed. And due to delays in the courts system, more could be coming down the track from the same period last year. Ami Goto, a 23-year-old from West London, was last week fined £1,100 plus court costs. Westminster Magistrates Court found she had, without reasonable excuse, participated in a gathering in a flat in Holborn, central London, on 18 December, despite the area being under Tier 3 restrictions. Ebru Sen, 26, of Sittingbourne, Kent, was also fined for being at the same gathering. Both women must pay the fine by 29 December or face bailiffs taking possessions to cover the amount. In a third case, Emilia Petruta-Cristea, 24, of Wanstead, East London, was also fined £1,100 for being part of an illegal gathering at her own home. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
