Boris made the restrictions law. He broke the law.

I'm sure all the people who watched their loved ones die alone through an iPad screen were pretty stressed and could have done with time with friends and family they didn't live with but it was illegal to do so so many people didn't.

I'm sure a lot of people who are defending him would think pretty differently if they lost family members due to the pandemic and were not allowed the time with them due to the restrictions in place

He made the rules, he should have abided by them. Simple as that. Other countries must be pissing themselves at this **** show.

Boris didn't make the law. He's not that bright. Some woman (can't remember her name) draghted up the law. Then Boris was obliged to take the advice of medical experts, his government and Parliament. Boris was at deaths door suffering from the Covid.

Boris did make the law, on the day of one of the parties, he was telling everyone live on TV that they shouldn't mix etc. However, he made everything worse by consistently lying about it. Blatantly he lied to parliament and the british people.

Now, it may be that many think it's not important, but elections will show one way or another, and there is a bunch happening in may, so we dont have long to wait to see what the public think of him

Politician lies shocker!

I don't think people's votes are gonna be changed because Boris had some jelly and Ice cream and played pass the parcel.

[bots]

these werent standard politician crap, he lied in parliament and you wont find many mps who have lied there.

I'm not one of those that think boris is crucial to deal with the war in ukraine. So there is no reason for him to be kept on. He is passed his sell by date, he won't be leader at the next election, so i think its better to get rid of him now

To be perfectly honest rules made for Nursing Homes and Hospitals were to protect the most vulnerable and the sick. If one of my parents or grandparents lived in their own home and were dying I would have broken the rules and gone to their aid even though "we were not supposed to"...and I would not believe anyone who would say they wouldn't have done the same thing. It was completely different with Homes and Hospitals because staff and other Residents/Patients had to be protected and sadly those who passed away in those institutions were unable to have loved ones there.
Thousands of people broke the rules during Covid...thousands. Look at the demonstrations up in London. What they did was no worse than Boris with his little gatherings...he amongst many.
We seriously need to get this into perspective...

Rusti ,
Boris and his merry crew were the ones who MADE the RULES , therefore it was his responsibility to KEEP them and ABIDE by them. If he can't even follow his own rules & restrictions then what is the point. The bloke was already a deceitful lying joke ,but more so now .

And I'm fed up of the excuse of " oh well people were breaking rules anyway" , that's not the point . They're not the ones running this country. And just think of all the loved ones people have lost in lockdown who they couldn't see ,there was funerals people couldn't attend.

Some of us were still following these so called rules. And no not everyone visited their loved ones as they were told not to . Sure they zoomed called & rang them but it wouldn't have been the same. People were worried they'd spread the virus when we were in heavy lockdown, plus there was the threat of people getting 'fined' aswell.

People were going through depression , dying etc and Boris & his mates are having p1ss take cheese & wine parties ,and he was laughing in all of our faces . I don't know how anyone can still go easy on him or even begin to defend him. It's truly baffling.

I get that but I think you have missed my point. Had Boris gone to visit his mother in a care home or had a huge funeral gathering for a loved one when the rest of us could’nt then I would get the baying for his head…and yes he and his Crew set the rules and he should be setting an example…but it was one or 2 small gatherings with work colleagues who were leading us through a Pandemic…and having led us through Brexit…
Now he is negotiating with Ukraine and helping them with their war….and people want him to lose his job over principle…that’s where I think it’s out of context imo.

‘Over principle’

He broke the law that he created.

[UserSince2005]

We love you Boris. Don’t listen to the bitter haters.
Just sad girls with sad lives.

[UserSince2005]

Boris is a hero, all the haters would have quit in his position and pussed out.
He soldier through the pandemic
He was our guiding light
What a man

[AnnieK]

Let's face it...Boris is a proven liar. He is more than comfortable lying to the public, Parliament and the Queeb. He lied about the £350million to the NHS during Brexit, he lied to the Queen to prorogue Parliament, he lied to Parliament and the whole of the GBP over Partygate. The people defending him are, in the main, those who have spent the last 2 years castigating another person for lying. Now, Boris' lies have effected every person in the UK but for some reason they are justifiable. I honesty don't get it.

Its the lies and ease that they trip off his tongue that annoys me.....not really that he broke the law.

And? What's your point? Does that make things better? Prime Minister Pinocchio should be held accountable for his repeated falsehoods

Why, who else went to lie to the Queen to pororgue parliament? Who else has broken ministerial code by repeatedly lying to parliament on the issue when asked directly?

All media call out politicians who lie....as you well know. Right now the highest ranking among them has been caught out.....again. You think that shouldn't be front page news? What else is he lying about?

It's not hard though...tell the truth, admit you messed up and moved on then there's nothing to catch out.

He's the highest ranking Politician...of course people will scrutinise what he does and says and quite righty

Own up and apologise....then everyone will forgive him and move on

I don't think so....
