 Well Sunak is Asian, he's a billionaire, and he is ideologically driven on austerity. He has fuck all chance of winning a single red wall seat imo. 

Driven on austerity? You must have missed the front pages of national newspapers last week waxing lyrical about his tax cuts and spending sprees.

Supposed to be Johnson behind the money tree with the wee man delivering it as his subordinate. Fairly well known though he wants to slash public services to bone.

Is he cynical enough to do that? Yes. Would any self respecting medical professional do so? You'd hope not.

Meanwhile in Germany, first full day in the job for Scholz and the newsreader on the state broadcaster has already called him Chancellor Kohl. The post-Merkel era is going to take a bit of getting used to.

Purely consistent with the kind of wretched output people with names like “@OohWine” put out into this world. Bet she calls people cockwombles and piss-puffins. I also bet Fish follows her

You know it's starting to have an effect when you're starting to see certain people say they've 'had enough of this, EVERY MP of all party's are shit'.....is their only way of expressing that they've backed a dud.

[PaddockLad 17283]

Of course….the man issuing all denials and suggesting that if there was a party they stuck to the rules anyway was actually at the party himself

What I find the funniest about this whole shitshow is that it will have been, undoubtedly, the shittest party in human history, and it’s possibly going to finish him. 

 

Can you imagine how shit the patter must’ve been at this (nonexistent) party?

Do we expect to see Johnson go?

Meanwhile staff at The Sun were really struggling to find a story big enough to avoid mentioning Johnson on the front page.

You'd imagine the sun's political editor Harry Cole may well have been at one or indeed several of these alleged parties....seeing as he literallly laid down his then partner, one Carrie Symonds, for his party & his country, then I expect he'd have no problem actually going to a party in the house she now lives in with a strange human child/old english sheepdog hybrid type thing

That was magnificent, and completely true. I saw something yesterday where Dominic Grieves said the same thing. Just wish some of the current crop of tory MP cunts had the morality and bravery to challenge Johnson now. Of course he eradicated any decency the party had left in 2019.

The Good Law Project has written to the Met threatening to sue if they don't investigate these parties. Obviously it's all couched in legal speak and a case presented, etc. 

Interesting times we live in where lawyers are having to sue the police to get them to apply the law. 

[Tom 14011]

The idea that the met can’t punish a crime because it’s “retrospective” is very dangerous & they look like idiots.

 

”sir I pulled you over because you were speeding” 

 

“Aye but I’m not now” 

[Gemmill 44930]

I suspect they know that, if they investigate, we'll quickly discover that they had a couple of officers stood outside the door as all the partygoers came and went, and they did nothing then and have done nothing since.

Someone tweeted the other day that Cressida Dick is more interested in keeping her job than doing it and it’s pretty much spot on.

That's what I said - it looks now like the parties under scrutiny may have only involved the little people rather than cabinet members with security but they must still have entrance/exit logs.
