tory scumbag wrote:"I don't think you can point to what the prime minister said as the cause of that," , Mr Philp told Sky News.

"You certainly can't blame him for the fact that that mob were clearly behaving in a totally unacceptable way."

He continued: "Keir Starmer's own website says he was responsible overall for the CPS, and, in fact, Keir Starmer himself apologised for the CPS's failings, just in the same way that the PM has apologised for the failings in Number 10."
So why bring it up again if KS has apologised for any failings? I thought the Tory line was that you can get away with anything as long as you apologise afterwards.

Was always going to be the approach. Pretty contemptable, to say the least. But that's Boris for you.

Just keep people talking about Keir Starmer/Jimmy Saville rather than the shitshow in number 10.

Yes what I'm hearing a lot is Keir Starmer and Jimmy Saville in the same sentence. Ultimate dead cat.

It'll be worth keeping a record of everyone who gets trotted out to defend Johnson over this for when they're trying to distance themselves from this shitshow to stand as leader on common decency/old fashioned values/back to basics or whatever shit Tory HQ comes up with next. Not a member of this cabinet who hasn't been shown to be utterly craven and devoid of the most basic levels of integrity.

So the blonde slug is rearranging his broken deckchairs today!!!!!
Jacob Rees-Mogg has been given a new role in government as the minister for Brexit opportunities, as Boris Johnson carries out a cabinet reshuffle.

The PM promised a rejig in No 10 after pressure over lockdown parties, and is currently meeting ministers.

Chris Heaton-Harris becomes the new chief whip, in charge of disciplining Conservative MPs - some of whom have called on Mr Johnson to resign.

His predecessor, Mark Spencer, replaces Mr Rees-Mogg as leader of the Commons.

But some Tory MPs have privately expressed concern about Mr Spencer's new post.

The role includes the responsibility for standards of behaviour in Westminster, but he is currently being investigated over accusations of Islamophobia, raised by fellow MP Nusrat Ghani - claims he has denied.


One MP said: "No 10 promised change. Nothing has changed. [The] PM just makes it worse."
You just couldn't make that bit up. It's as if none of these thing's happen in the repugnant cunt's mind.

The general state of gutlessness extends beyond Politics !
Comment on the issues surrounding Keir Starmer, Boris Johnson's seemingly misleading comments and the mob which surrounded the former yesterday is not limited to those inside politics.

The Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, stops short of directly blaming the PM for the Labour leader being "harassed and threatened", saying "we must condemn it and stand united against it".

The final part of his very carefully worded tweet will certainly be seen as at least alluding to Mr Johnson's comments in parliament, with the leader of the Church of England calling for "a culture where we can learn to disagree well".
So much for expecting moral leadership from the CoE

The main Brexit opportunities Rees-Mogg will be looking for are opportunities to enrich himself through his investment firm, Somerset Capital Management.

It’s estimated that by 2019 he had personally benefitted to the tune of £7m as a result of the fall in the value of the pound following the referendum.

Boris Johnson's leadership past point of no return, says big Tory donor

Boris Johnson's premiership is past the point of no return and he should resign, a financier who has given the Conservatives more than £3m says.

John Armitage told the BBC that challenges facing the West demanded "serious, engaged" politicians.

He has given the Tories more than £500,000 since Mr Johnson became PM but donated £12,500 last year to Labour.

Mr Armitage, co-founder of the hedge fund firm Egerton Capital, told the BBC's political editor, Laura Kuenssberg, he found the current political situation "tremendously upsetting".

Describing himself as a "middle-of-the-road conservative", Mr Armitage said he admired politicians on the left and right, and said current global challenges to the West required ''very serious, engaged politicians with a sense of purpose".

"Politicians should go into politics to do good for their country," Mr Armitage added. "That is the overwhelming reason to be in politics. I don't think it's about your own personal sense of getting to the top of a snakes-and-ladders game.

"And I feel that, if you lose moral authority, and if you do things which the average person - your mother, someone you try to explain to, someone who you admire - if you do something or say something, which on the front page of the Sunday Times looks terrible, and you do that consistently, and you betray a sense of not really caring, I think you should leave

"And I find the lack of honour inherent in modern politics, incredibly distressing."

Asked if Mr Johnson was "past the point of no return", he replied: "Well, personally yes."

She's a fucking Health Minister!!!!! :wtf:
A health minister has apologised for continuing a meeting despite discovering she had tested positive for Covid.

Gillian Keegan said she found out her result during a visit on Tuesday, after taking a "precautionary" lateral flow test beforehand.

She added she briefly continued her meeting, with a group of bereaved fathers, with their consent.

But she said "on reflection" this was "an error of judgment on my part".
Why the hell didn't she wait the 10-15 minutes after taking the test to see the result?

Nah, of course she was "just trialling" this...
Boris Johnson has said he plans to end all remaining Covid restrictions in England - including the legal rule to self-isolate - a month early.

Everything he's quoted as saying is emminently reasonable, but, if he's being genuine, it eludes me as to why he'd back the Tories, especially post-Johnson.

Found Leadsom's tweet this morning quite disturbing. Suggesting Nick Robinson on R4 is clearly a fan of Arthur Scargill (suggested one of his heroes in fact) despises Thatcher and that this is evidence of BBC bias.
