"Strange he wasn’t scared of the virus isn’t it?"
Bet he was when he was on his way to intensive care ....
Remember Boris is a self- entitled upper class buffon so his base line thinking is rules only apply to the plebs. Which is why he partied like IBIZA in the 80's. Nothing to do with scared v non-scared all to do with I can do what I want when I want. |

He is an absolute prick…laughing his f@@king fat face off at us normal stupid idiots who are putting up with his bullshit….yes we are the thick’s ones for putting up with his constant lies.
When caught out he throws his own people under the bus ..while he sails into wind out of the gunfire.  |

"I think the important question is not whether he was scared or not but if he followed the rules which he himself had made for us all"
But the evidence shows that he didn't because we as society weren't allowed to meet more than one person and I believe he had over 40 people at this party even though Boris was invited but he still attended breaking his own rules set out for everyone else |

Boris had his brush with COVID in April 2020 so probably thought himself immune/invincible in May 2020, sadly. |

Excellently put London and slinky. Why did they display no fear but drilled fear into the public. No social distancing for them no face pants for them party party who knows what else happend at that party I remember people on here clucking for a fuck but they made that sacrifice so why no fear. I believe they clearly know something we don't know or they would of been just as vigilant for a deadly virus that you need to take a test just to know if you have it. Truth just sinks to the bottom and gets forgotten about but lies and deceit remain on the surface for you to attack. And what a mountain full of shit there is. |

You're overlooking the fact Johnson and his lot seem really arrogant. You're also overlooking the fact they don't seem to give a shit about rules. You're also overlooking the fact they don't seem to care about people who aren't them in the slightest.
I suspect that's the true reason for all these parties while the rest of us were told to follow the rules. |

Tbh I not convinced he actually had it seemed odd as not long after Trump allegedly had it.
No good folk thinking he would not lie about look at his track record example partys. Lying to queen. Illegaly trying to close parliament. |

"Judging by the lack of comments/outrage it would seem many neither care what their elected leaders do or they model those values.
"
Politicians are the UK's least trustworthy profession by a considerable margin, so I doubt if anyone is surprised at them ignoring their own rules. |

This is a man who made rules that prevented people from going to the funerals of family members or friends.
A man who made rules that meant the whole world saw the queen sitting alone at her husband's funeral.
Yet he and his spineless band of hangers-on can party and do whatever they want. If he is challenged his little piggy face smirks at the camera whilst he bullshits his way around the subject.
The police will do nothing about the breaches by the government, as the government controls how the police work and operate. The police have already stated that their policy is not to investigate retrospective breaches, so nothing will get done over these latest allegations.
He is without doubt the worst prime minister this country has ever had, unless you count the lying Tony Blair.
Heads may roll over the continuous allegations against this government, but Boris will continue to laugh and smirk and stick two fingers up at the world. |

Does anyone think there’s a bit of double standards here? Not defending Govt parties at all - should not have happened - but I would be amazed if there weren’t other gatherings/wine and cheese in various workplaces last year. Especially for those who had been “in office” as against WFH.
For transparency, I had no such party but I’m sure they happened… |

You expect the cunts who make the rules to follow them though right? Especially as they’ve gone so heavy on the propaganda and fear. Why weren’t they scared of the virus that we were supposed to be scared of? Do they know something we don’t? |

And none of the general population know that parties are fun 
We all enjoyed being locked away in our (quite often) tiny flats whilst they went to parties. Genuinely don’t understand why everyone isn’t seething about this |

Yes, hand on heart we did..
We didn't see out kids or our grandchildren when the rules said not to ..
Millions followed the rules..
People followed the rules that dictated one person to say bye to a dying loved one..
Stop making excuses for the people in charge who have at times been incompetent in their handling of the pandemic and have pissed over the vast majority of this country by ignoring the rules they set.. |

I'm more surprised by the shock or anger people have for his antics than what Boris as reportedly done.
What did you expect, hand on heart did you believe he was a saint? He is a proven liar that used the mood of the nation to propel him into power by a considerable majority. |

I knew he was a liar when he became mayor of London and we then had that evidenced on several occasions, closing Fire stations being just one..
Boris is only about Boris, every aspect of his public and most likely private life, employment etc has only ever been about his ego above all else..
Some who supported him, brexit in particular are too embedded in the hyperbolic myth to acknowledge they have been duped.. |

"Loves a party more than Hugh Hefner does Boris !

It wasn't a party. Our brave and public spirited tory MP's allowed themselves to be used in an experiment to see how covid would spread in a party environment so they could make rules to keep us all safe from each other. |

Given Boris had previously been told how potentially bad the virus was but ignored said advice, shook hands with covid positive people and ended up in an ICU I'm going with gross stupidity.. |

I'm not bothered about the "rule breaking" as we've come to expect it, this is just the latest in a long line of MPs and advisors who've been caught breaking their own rules.
I am just surprised that they didn't expect to get caught given how brazen they seem to of been a out organising it (emails etc) |

There's one rule for everyone. That some people flout the rules doesn't mean there's two rules.

It does make me laugh how people can say politicians are the least trust worthy people there are yet this proven liar has got people to roll their sleeve up. Everyone in attendance at that shindig must resign and face the same consequences anyone in this forum would of had. I remember an elderly couple being charged just for having a stroll up the peak district and they care about peoples health. One rule for them an another for you is Tyranny |

Highly unlikely he had any brush with Covid at all. Really can't see someone who was so unwell they were in ICU on oxygen bouncng back to a boozy garden party just a few weeks later.

The people being spoken about are for from stupid regardless of how they present themselves. They are also people in positions of power, high income and all the rest of the perks that come with such positions. Many of them are not by the looks of things on top of keeping themselves in a fit and healthy shape. Well who else has a fucking (paid for) bar at work.
That being said we are talking about those who have the most to loose. If you think they would be so blasé and careless about carrying out so called “necessary” requirements to avoid dying or killing others, then I think your kidding yourself. |

IME people who are "clever and/or highly educated" can also be extremely unaware of the world and how they behave. I spent 20 years working with some top scientists and they could be pretty stupid, I can tell you! |

"Strange he wasn’t scared of the virus isn’t it?"
I know you are trying to be flippant… but the timeline would have been that he had already had covid, you know… that episode of covid that was so severe he ended up in ICU and in his own word was close to dying!!!
So the timeline would have been this party was just after he had come back from rehab at chequers… and 2 days before Dominic Cummings took his jaunt to Bernard Castle |

At that point I was one of the people who was at home in shielding… so yes, I absolutely bloody followed the rules at the point!!!!
At that point my aunt had already died of covid… and 363 people died of covid on that day whilst they took the piss and partied!!
I know so people like to defend the indefensible… this ain’t that day!!!!  |

What were the police doing on duty when on the same day they were moving people on in the parks of London should they not be asked to explain what they were doing.
Also people drinking in the workplace is that not dangerous how many people are encouraged to drink at work because It's good weather |

Even if Boris considered himself immune, with everything that was being said at that time about how dangerous and life threatening the situation was to the people concerned and who they may pass it to, I don't really understand why so many people would attend the party and not be scared for their own health, and for the health of those vulnerable they may be in contact with afterwards.
They would have more information than all of us and yet did not feel the need to protect others.
I still can't spend quality time with, or hug my own father because he's vunerable and too scared of touch fromanybody at all. |

This sense of affrontery applies to all human beings. We all feel we've been picked on if we....
Speed
Jump a red light
Park on the pavement
Had sex in a public place
Bought cigarettes under the age of 16, later 18
Dropped litter
Taken illegal drugs
Used a mobile phone while driving
Cycled without lights after dark
Parked on double yellow lines
Taken a child out of school for a holiday - without the head teacher's permission
Not informed the DVLA of a change of name or address
Not cleaned up after your dog has pooed in public
Cycled through a red light
Fiddled expenses
Sung or chanted a crude football chant
Gone fishing without a licence
Parked opposite a junction
Put make-up on while driving
Pocketed change when given wrong amount
Beeped a horn for any reason other than alerting traffic or after 11pm
Been d*unk on the street, in a pub or in a restaurant
Drank alcohol under the age of 18
Sworn or gestured to other road users
Not paid TV licence
Eaten or d*unk while driving
Taping off the radio (for those of a certain age)
And yes, broke a Covid rule
And hundreds of other misdemeanours
... and got caught.
It's the getting caught human beings are more sorry about. But making out we are all much better than 'evil' Boris is preposterous. Which is why many are realising replacing Boris with 'Beer Starmer' is an absurdity and wouldn't change anything! The Left are sometimes much worse than the Right and none of us are angels. |

Which is why many are realising replacing Boris with 'Beer Starmer' is an absurdity and wouldn't change anything! The Left are sometimes much worse than the Right and none of us are angels. "
that was quite a long message to actually say your political leanings! We should expect the best to govern our country not the least worse! I did not think Boris was defensible but I was wrong, it appears the way to defend him is by saying someone else is worse! Maybe it’s just me but I don’t find that a compelling or strong defence |

No, not particularly defending Boris, just putting it out there that we want fallible human beings with life experience to lead us as liberally as possible, who strive to be the best, but who we know will fail. We cannot be led by monks and nuns and short of God almighty descending to earth and leading us directly, we have to go with what we've got. We have it fairly easy, compared to living under the Taliban or in China, Russia etc so be careful what you wish for. |

because others live under tyranny or suppression surely shouldn’t mean that we as a democracy should accept things just because others are worse off. Again it’s kinda of a poor defense in highlighting that others have it worse and we should be thankful

I understand that's your view. Mine is that people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones and all that do should be highlighted equally. Apologies if that's politically inconvenient to some people. |
