Partygate report published

[bots]

The Privileges Committee concludes Boris Johnson should have been suspended from the House for 90 days.

It says he deliberately misled the House, the Committee, impugned the Committee and was "complicit in the campaign of abuse and attempted intimidation of the Committee."

It adds "We recommend that he should not be entitled to a former Member's pass."

[joeysteele]

Let's see how Fishy reacts to this.

I'm personally pleased with its conclusions.
It's obvious he misled, it's one of the more negative things he is really competent in doing.
Along with other continuous political deceit and lies.

Nice one.

[Crimson Dynamo]

"a potential 90 day suspension"

[arista]

Yes his public statements
at the time have set him up for this.

[Cherie]

Yes hs lies
at the time have set him up for this.

fixed

[bots]

it will be interesting to see how it pans out. If he has the support he claims among tory mp's there will be a coup in the next few days. Personally, i think he now has very little support at all

Claims they think they can get into
Johnson's mind?

[bots]

Stitch up

I certainly think there is an element of that in there, but Boris did flout the rules and he did lie. He has done the same throughout his entire political career.

People knew exactly what they were getting when they voted the tories in with a massive majority, but i don't think he has that level of support now and thats why I think he will be yesterdays news very quickly. Compare it to trump, and he has been much more successful at retaining his supporters

[MTVN]

Margaret Ferrier spoke in the Commons while knowing she had Covid and then travelled home to Scotland on the train. She got a 30 day suspension. Boris had some cake and called the committee a kangaroo court and they were going to give him 90 days :skull:

Even Nadine is bottling, so I think that is an indicator that there is no appetite to lose their seats for Bojo

[Liam-]

This whole narrative that Boris just ‘had some cake’ is so completely disingenuous it shocks me that people still try and use it

[bots]

i think most tory mp's are going to abstain on Monday which means the vote will go through easily.

I wonder if Sunak, who places such a high value on integrity, will vote :laugh:

Stitch up

The committee making this report is literally a conservative majority - there is no stitch up. They have presented the facts. For the first time in 13 years of Tory rule, they appear to have told the truth.

That doesn't preclude it being a stitch up, plenty of Tories had knives out for Boris for a long time

And the leader of that committee certainly had it in for Boris

[bots]

what would now be very funny, is if Nadine voting saved Boris from censure :laugh:

The breaking of rules was annoying but the offence was lying to parliament and the british public, i see that as very important.

[Crimson Dynamo]

People were literally killing themselves in lockdown whilst that load of scum were having parties

no one was having a party, that is an exaggeration based on dislike of a certain class/type of person

however the assumtion that the average Brit was too stupid to make their
own risk assessment whilst the top bods at the government level were is a
huge insult and disgrace. This pandemic was a real worry for a certain time in
first half of 2020 but it soon became clear that only the old with co-morbility
were in any danger yet for years we were subjected to ridiculous anti-
science and restriction based on the fear of those in power getting the blame
for anything. Not one person has been held accountable for the massive
overreaction to this virus that has had huge financial and health-related
consequences.



that is unacceptable

[Sawyer]

I think the reaction has been disproportionate to the offence

If lying at the dispatch box is allowed, it sets a very very dangerous precedent for our country.

This is not disproportionate. This is literally defending democracy.

I find it hard to remain polite when debating these things, because unfortunately, the truth is that people like you, who enable his behaviour, are the very reason why this country is in its current state.

There was a time when people would have resigned for the notion that they had mislead parliament. This man lies, and lies about the lie and then trashes the committee that he requested conduct the inquiry.

The man has had £250k of our money to defend himself in this inquiry when he's earned £6m since September. During a cost of living crisis, when public services are beyond breaking point (his doing) and people can't afford to eat.

You're defending the indefensible.

Unbelievable.

[Sawyer]

People were literally killing themselves in lockdown whilst that load of scum were having parties

Literally! I'm a police officer - I was literally enforcing the rules he set, all while the man who set them was partying?

As soon as I found out I refused to issue any more fines.

Embarrassing for me, embarrassing for the country.

The thing is, this is beyond parties now. The issue here is lying at the dispatch box, which I believe is a far more serious crime when we got the issues of misinformation, AI, deepfakes etc, we need to protect democracy and stop setting dangerous precedents.

While Blair gets away with lying about that,a so called party and so called lies is nothing, he has and still is imo being hounded when people who have done much worse are slithering away.he has gone and they still cant leave him be. maybe he should have sent people to war. We have ALL lied and yes I know he was PM,but a lie is still a lie .

It was twenty years ago and no one's justifying anything. People are drawing a comparison.

No, he didn't go to prison. They made him a Middle East peace envoy and gave him a Nobel Peace Prize.

Yes,people turning a blind eye is wrong,we all know it happened a long time ago,but people still get jailed for misdeeds many years ago,so why is Blair any different,just because for example the Holocaust happened years ago does NOT excuse the foul deeds of someone in power, would the same people turning a blind eye to Blair do the same with Hitler, I sincerely hope not.

This is old news. The media keep regurgitating the same stories with slightly extra info. Every day with Boris there was same story with slightly extra info until he was forced all. All the info was known at the very start they are just playing games

Aren’t they justifying all those gathering by saying NOBODY was invited or just turned up to them …. they were already at work together ( just like all us school staff were ) then they just had nibbles and drinks at the end of the day ?!

Seems perfectly feasible to be honest .

Whilst the majority of folk were on a paid-for jolly for absolutely ages … some of us were working through Covid thinking we could contract Covid at any given moment and be seriously poorly or even WORSE !!

Boris was ultimately responsible and he lost his job because of it. All the rest of them got fines. I really don't know what the purpose is for going back over it again and again.

the vote is going to be a bit of a joke. Boris has told his supporters not to vote, so they probably wont turn up. Sunak is claiming he is too busy and won't attend. So when it comes to the vote it will be done firstly by voice, and if there are no Nays, they wont record numbers or who voted which way

[arista]

will not be there for the Vote.
He is busy.
