Partygate

Put me down in your mug column then mate

 

I think he's having his little bit of fun aimed at me.

 

Yep! Corrected.

You’re a good sport though.

 

So was Starmer on GMB.

 

Only in election time can you offset a number of wrongs, with a number of wrongs from someone else.

Once again we have the main parties not showing why we should vote for them, but why we shouldn't vote for their opponents.

This is the shitshow we have had for years.

 

Great watching him squirm ,the man who took the holier than thou stance on party gate and now tying himself into knots on the issue.

 

If you can't tell the difference between having a single beer in your lunchtime sandwich break during a full day's campaigning and shipping in loads of wine, champagne, party food etc then I can't help you.

 

Tbh I'm quite happy as someone who always opposed the shitshow of rules as making little sense (rule of 6, people in Ilkley allowed people in gardens but people in Keighley not, you can't see your mum but you can mix all day with people in a supermarket, etc) being caught out for the very rules they voted for without question.

 

Lunchtime ? 10 O’clock at night ? And he said he went back to work sandwich break = 30 curries and beer ordered after saying the hotel restaurant he was staying was closed,it wasn’t.The Labour Party denied Rayner was there until evidence was shown she was and how many more people or MP’s were there that night ? Starmer could have come out with the truth but he and labour decided to do the holier than thou on party gate when Starmer knew he was in the wrong on Durham and he even used people affected by covid for examples knowing he was in the sh!t himself - Disgusting.

 

Because you concentrate on those in charge.

Look, politics isn't like in the 80's before. They are all the same. This I am a blue or red is utter bollocks.

Judge those in charge and they have mugged you right off. If someone else takes over then judge them.

 

This is a local election. How Boris conducts himself doesn't relate to how the local council runs services. We still have the same council leader and CEO who have overseen the stripping of children's services from the councils control and they carry on regardless because they know they can't be removed because we can't remove the CEO, and due to Boris's antics we know Labour will benefit because many are too dumb to realise that they aren't voting in a general election and tomorrow's vote has nothing to do with Boris.

 

It's not them being dumb at all.

What is dumb are people nothing demanding more from their councils but thinking things don't come from the top eg those in power.

The reason why Bradford has so many refugees for example is because the central government (Boris) says to the councils who wants them we need to get them out of London then they ship them off to Bradford. Bradford don't ship them back. They are all in it together!

However, the Boris needs to learn a lesson and quickly. Local elections or not he needs to suffer! And then be replaced.

 

Fair enough. My mistake. I thought it was a lunch break.
If it was a breach of the rules then, I agree, it's very stupid of him to try to hide it. Looks like we'll have to wait and see whether the police, having already said it wasn't, decide there's sufficient grounds to investigate further. However, as a one-off, it still doesn't compare to the prolonged, frequent, systematic rule-breaking around No 10 though.

 

And here lies the very problem with politics. It's a fight to get to the top of that moral high ground only to be shot down when you get there. The same principle applies to the main parties come election time and is something Edin Nowhere alludes to, we are voting for what is the least shite, not because we fully believe in what they are doing. It's the my dad's bigger than your dad syndrome. No wonder we have the shitshow we have.

 

So no difference at all between ordering a takeaway for your travelling workforce after all the other food outlets were shut, and having 30+ people quaffing wine in the Downing Street garden when they should have been at home with their families, or bringing in suitcases of booze for a basement disco?
And it wasn't a 'zoom quiz', it was a zoom meeting about maximising getting the vote out - ie work.

You don’t understand what’s wrong with Boris and his party did? Really?

Ask the people who had had relatives that died or those in Care Homes.

Seriously mate! Have some respect for yourself.
