And I have never voted Tory before. That is how angry I am, I will never forget what Labour did today. And I'll never forget that Miriam Coates MP voted to allow water companies to dump untreated raw sewage back in the rivers.  Maybe if you didn't continually spout raw untreated sewage, we wouldn't have to suffer it being released into our water supply ?

Like inconvenient and cited facts (for pro suppressionists) ? Like these ? :  Do masks and vaccine passports prevent Covid illness and deaths ? (3 Dec 21)  England : No mask mandate since July (to 30th Nov), no vaccine passport (to 10th Dec) Scotland : Mask mandate still in force from last year, vaccine passport since 1st Oct (enforced since 18th Oct) Wales : Mask mandate still in force from last year, vaccine passport since 11th Oct  Patients in hospital with a positive Covid test per million popn (on 3rd Dec 21, the last date for which the change in mandate cannot have had any effect) England : 103.7 Scotland : 118.5 Wales : 141.3  Deaths from any cause within 28 days of a positive Covid test Last date for which full data is available is 26 Nov for Eng and Scot and 25 Nov for Wales. Number of deaths 7 day average / per million popn = England = 95.4 / 1.69 Scotland = 10.6 / 1.93 Wales = 5.7 / 1.78  Populations : Eng = 56.4m, Scotland = 5.5m, Wales = 3.2m https://coronavirus.data.gov.uk/details/healthcare?areaType=nation&areaName=England https://coronavirus.data.gov.uk/details/healthcare?areaType=nation&areaName=Scotland https://coronavirus.data.gov.uk/details/healthcare?areaType=nation&areaName=Wales 2 minutes ago, hackey lad said: Not very often I agree with you Joker but this time have this  And that is because you have a blinkered mind.

The Daily Mirror as well and truly on one with this.  Dont know what their definition of raucous party is - but all I see is about 20 people stood around a very dull looking buffet. It's a sort of thing our office had regularly during many a lunchtime.  Goodness sake it is obvious these people are at work. They are hardly dressed up for a night on the booze, drugs and debauchery.  The press are really starting to overcook this and it's making themselves look ridiculous.

You looked at that picture, and thought - "yeah, that's fine, we did that". In December 2020 you got the caterers in and huddled together for a works group photo in December 2020?  And they're hardly going to get dressed up for it either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

They are describing it as a "raucous party" which it clearly was not.  A tiny gathering of colleages who were already in the workplace and had been no doubt for several days before and after the event does not make some national scandal. At the time of this alleged debauchery London was in Tier 2. Yes yes we know about mixed household rules applying to domestic circumstances but let's not forget that under Tier 2, bars pubs restaurants, retail, indoor leisure, accommodation, personal services and entertainment venues were all still open.  The so-called great scandal of a buffet in the office kitchen with a small number of colleagues is nothing more than pot stirring by a desperate tabloid looking for a scalp.

Another way of looking at this is, it's just politics.  99 Tory MP's saying, Boris we still love you, you are our 'Golden Boy' who delivered a killer blow to the Labour Party with a massive majority BUT if you carry on down the road you're heading, you'll loose us the next Gen. Election, so reel it in a bit & get back on track. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
