And people did follow the rules, because apparently the rules were for the benefit of other people, so it's only right to do so.
And if we need to do similar in the future, the actions of Johnson and his government will result in an utter shit show, which could see us become an utter disaster.

That one has always confused me as surely getting veggies from an allotment was not an offence? Surely when you can go into an open supermarket and pure the same veggies?

Didn’t Rita Ora get fined for a family party while the tories had their own parties?
It would be funny if she sued the government or came out and said can I have refund!

It's not a question of compensating people who broke the law. It's about making sure those who were much more egregious offendrrs face justice.

I know the the Boris fan boys everywhere will be saying that this is just sour grapes but regardless of whether her motivation is revenge or not she’s bang on

Off the cabinet only Penny Mordaunt has dared showed her face and shown leadership confirming she’ll vote for the committee findings. Meanwhile Sunak’s gone into hiding. Berry and Rees-Mogg debasing themselves even by their standards. No wonder the Tories have dropped in the polls again. They can’t even claim it’s because of the way Boris is being “treated” because it’s Labour who are picking up the points not the other right wing parties (insert your own jokes about Starmer being centre right here).

Is she there voluntarily or does she have to be there as leader of the house?

Meanwhile, as one ex PM falls, another tries to rehabilitate themselves. Apparently her economic ideas were too intellectual and ended up dumbed down... or so it appears.

Nope, but nice try. People are "triggered" because they can see the obvious injustice, hypocrisy, and dishonesty.
There are people (lots of them) who couldn't see their loved ones, alive, or when they were dying, or even go to their funerals.
But those rules didn't apply to the "Jingle and Mingle" team, because they were 'working' at number 10, making the rules, but not following them.
You're defending the indefensible. But then that's all that any Tory can do these days because any semblance of integrity, honesty, or competence has long since disappeared from the party.
You've chosen to be led by the corrupt, the mendacious, the cowardly, and the stupid. Too late to cry about it now it's becoming obvious to everyone.

That was the Christmas my dad went into hospital. He was in there for nearly 3 months during which time we weren’t allowed to visit him despite not knowing if he would ever come out
His dementia got considerably worse while he was in there to the point you couldn’t even speak to him on the phone after the first couple of weeks
By the time he got transferred to care and we could finally see him it was like a different person but as long as they had fun at their rule breaking party who cares

Really? I've been quoted and thrown the insults and suggest being upset which is odd, I've kept my counsel and insulted nobody in those posts unless you count saying we're not mates to DoD is an insult. Still you got a couple of likes so well played.

“don't pretend to be ethical or moral to random people on a forum.”
That’s an insult to literally everyone who disagrees with you. You think everyone who disagrees with you is dishonest rather than just having a different moral compass than yourself.
The whole Boris thing has clearly rattled you. You sound like the Corbynistas after he lost.
Never fall in love with loan players or politicians.

The saddest part of it is the number of people who were in a far worse situation than me and never saw their relative again. Its mind blowing that there's a decent number of people who think that wouldn't / shouldn't be an issue when talking about people ignoring the rules and having a party

Although as usual you've misquoted me and missed the crucial word 'I'. I don't pretend....
The pile ons here are embarrassing at times. The names I get called on here and you're as guilty as any yet I never start the name-calling I simply admit to being a tory. If all you want is like opinions then it's an echo chamber you want not a forum.

There's an old rule that serves well. If one person thinks you are displaying cuntish behaviour, you're probably ok. Once a few suggest it then maybe a period of self reflection is worthwhile.

In fact it's still not ok. Debate me, tell me I'm wrong. Tell me why I'm wrong. I probably still won't agree and you're likely wasting your time, but does that mean there's a need to throw the names about? The quickest to be offended often and yet if it agrees with the masses you'll get some likes and all is ok. There's also a reason more than one will be over that thought because its fairly clear this board is massively one sided in terms of political standing. Those who aren't are about as welcome as Leicester or Villa fans posting on here about City.

Copy and paste error that. But if anything adding I makes the point even more “*I* don’t pretend” implies others do.
I’ll take the piss out of you for Boris just as I do Ian or BSB for Corbyn, it’s nothing to do with your politics. Boris was pretty left wing, as Tory PMs go you could do a lot worse. He was just an incompetent buffoon. I could vote for a socially conservative economically left government if I thought it was actually going to do what it said. But Boris would never get past the fiscaal hawks in the party. Also when his ideology comes up against his mates and donors the ideology loses every time.

I don't pretend implies nothing other than I don't pretend unless you choose to read it that way. If you do I can't help that, but it's clear surely from my responses that I don't pretend. If I did I'd not be ridiculed for my opinions quite so much and sit nodding in the background saying I agree. If I don't agree I say so and I'm aware it's not always the popular response, even if it does prompt others to call me thick or stupid which I'm clearly not, just hold a different opinion. What a dreadfully boring place if would be if we were all like minded.

Why say it then? What are you trying to say? Why is it even a topic of discussion unless you think others are pretending?
You seem to think everyone wants you to agree, which couldn’t be further from the truth. We just reserve the right to take the piss when it seems you’re a little overly attached to a politician.
