Boris at it again and the contest to replace the lying c***

[Trips]

It's all become very convenient. Sue Gray report will continue but won't be published due to the Met investigation. Ministers can now swat back questions with "I can't talk about a police investigation" Hopefully Tory MPs grow a backbone and decide enough is enough and this guy can't carry on now. I won't hold my breath.

 

[Kenny]

Just the fact the Police are investigating the Government should be enough for the PM to walk/get told to fuck off.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

He's already been investigated by the Police for funnelling public money to Fivehead Arcuri.

That one quietly disappeared into the ether despite him being obviously bang to rights.

He's like a really shit, really low rent gangster. It's the kind of thing you'd expect from a tinpot ex-Soviet republic in the 1990s.

Well I never saw this coming. So basically the whole thing becomes sub judice and the opposition effectively can’t talk about it.

Does that include talking about it in parliament?

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Carrie Johnson lives at 11 Downing Street.

Someone please put him on the hook asking why she's continually milling around Number 10, getting involved in what we are told are "work meetings" (what security clearance does she have, incidentally), inviting 30 people into the Cabinet Office when we're in full lockdown and also getting her interior designer along for the ride?

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

I’m not sure with parliamentary privilege.

 

[Tredman]

Hartley-Brewer sticking the boot in on politics live. Didn’t expect that.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Angela Rayner is asking an urgent question so I guess we will find out from that how much privilege is going to allow her to say.

"Edges of a work event".

Ignoring the fact that it obviously wasn't as his awful wife was there, and "work events" weren't allowed in June 2020, and 30 people having cake and a singsong obviously isn't work.

Rumours that the Conservative Party are changing their name to the Conservative Work Event have yet to be confirmed.

I’ll get me coat.

Presumably the award of PPE Supply Contracts were 'edges of corruption'?

 

[Sniffer]

So it is the Government that have decided that the report can not be released and not the Metropolitan Police.

 

[lemonjelly]

looking forward to the work event recovery group being set up.

It's like living in a Banana Republic, but we brought it on ourselves.

 

[Tredman]

Banana Republic

I'm sure there are better and certainly less loaded with historicial racism terms you could use

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Not really, i think it sums us up pretty well. Corrupt, and largely controlled from elsewhere.

You have chosen to make a link to racism.

 

[Tredman]

Not me, its pretty much well established as a term used by patronising westerners:

May 2021 – AHA

[Elephant Pyjamas]

I'm using the term to describe a western country that i live in!
