I thought we were discussing right and wrong not just what they do. One would assume MPS have access to material that we may not wish to be in the public domain ranging from security classified /private to politically sensitive.
Stunning she would be so blase about this and its scary she would openly “brag” about it.

Nobody sensible is suggesting that accessing porn whilst either being in work, or being a paid representative of the electorate is acceptable, I’m just pointing out that there’s next to nothing that can be done about it in this context.

Nadine Dorris just confirms my suspicions over the way MPs operate, and I’ve heard similar anecdotal stories about MLAs.. they’re mostly on another planet

Did all this stuff happen back in 2008?

I think a lot of people are viewing it in the context of nowadays when there are a zillion different “tube” sites for porn. How were people consuming porn back in 2008? I’m assuming if there’s a lot of “downloaded” stuff, would it have been from p2p networks or something along those lines?

@jonnyboi, I’m assuming it was a laptop, given how much travelling MPs do.

Right then.

Monday tomorrow, so the story picks up again. Every hour this goes on for is damaging to ‘our’ shambolic government.

Unconfirmed report that He’s resigned

Edit: confirmed

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news

Resigned – from the Cabinet. Still an MP.

He’s spending more time with his laptop.

Ha!
Diddums.

“inaccurate and misleading” statements

I am going to start accusing posters of doing that – its polite for lied isnt it ?

Lol.

He’s spanked his last cabinet monkey

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-42434802

Squeezing in 1 last shambles before Xmas, still time for more tho

Mr Green said he accepted statements he made about what he knew about the pornography investigation could have been “clearer”, conceding his lawyers had been informed about the original discovery in 2008 and the police had raised the matter within him in a phone call in 2013.
“I apologise that my statements were misleading on this point,” he said. “

W@nker. Literally.

Now we’ve established that he’s just a big fat liar purveyor of misleading statements, in respect of the denials of having made inappropriate advances to a researcher……

although there were “competing and contradictory accounts of what were private meetings” between himself and Ms Maltby, “the investigation found Ms Maltby’s account to be plausible”.

Ha!

Moar Tory handwringing 😆

You have to love this government (small G, natch)

To lose one minister may be regarded as a misfortune; to lose two looks like carelessness.

Three looks…?

Strong and stable?

Now for it to come out that he was pushed rather than resigned…… then we can hold DD’s feet to the fire over his threat to resign if Green was sacked.

It’s starting to look a lot like….. well….. Christmas, I suppose.

So does this make it more likely Bob Quick will carry out his threat to sue Green?

Davis this is the escape route you’ve been looking for!

Green maintains in writing in his resignation letter he wasn’t looking at porn on his work computer. I think the issue is he wasn’t clear that the police had asked him about it. If what he wrote in his letter isn’t true then someone will take him up on that obviously.

No reason to resign as an MP hence he has not. Ministerial code is far stricter.

It’s hard work defending this shower of shitehawks, but it’s great to see that some can stoop to the task.

I can’t quite believe Davis is still in a job given how much he’s mislead parliament in the last few weeks. Of course, he now has a chance to go. Unless “asked to resign” is different from being sacked?

Green, Patel, Fallon…all gone in disgrace. Awesome. 😀

Seems May asked Green to resign

Will Davis be as good as his word?

Hahaha just kidding DD has been exposed as a champion bullshitter so often lately it’s not even vaguely likely he’d keep his word on this

As someone else said – if it wasn’t him then who else was accessing porn on his computer while he was mid-email?

And having established that he ‘gave misleading statements’ about whether he knew of the porn on his computer, do we really give any credibility now to his ‘there isn’t any…. OK there is, but it isn’t mine’ claims. Or will they also turn out to be misleading?

Quack quack…..

In the age of Brexit misleading the public/parliament is pretty much standard government policy

DD has been exposed as a champion bullshitter

Maybe, but he’s hardly the worst on here.

Maybe, but he’s hardly the worst on here.

Indeed, there are bizzies on here after all. 🙂

Touché!

Watched an interview some weeks ago with the retired officer. The interview took place in what appeared to be his home. Wherehe was flicking through paper notes he took during the initial investigation.

Thing is, if he has evidence then why would he have this at home, or copies at home ? should this not be the property of the Crown ? Not something you have on the bookshelf…

Touché!

😉

Green resigned not sacked, Davies is of the hook, how can you think it would be any other way.

Davies knows he’s going, he’ll just steer the unpopular Brexit ship on to a sandbank and pretend nothing more can be done. No one else really wants control of the tiller.

It’s right that he was sacked/resign from the cabinet just a pity it took so long.And he should stand down as an MP but that isn’t going to happen.What’s also wrong is that he has kept his well paid job for almost a decade since this was discovered and he got promoted.Leaving him time to go on and indecently assault someone and send offensive texts whilst in his position of power.Wrong in so many ways.

Davis is so profoundly stupid that surely his political epitaph can only be ‘resigned on a matter of principle. The principle of his mate to **** himself cross-eyed while at work’

It’d be a suitably fitting way for the ‘thick as mince’ vainglorious twerp to go

I’m sticking a tenner on a GE before May (as in the month before June, not her)

Iain Drunken Smith when asked about DD’s statement that he would resign if Green was sacked – ‘he resigned, he wasn’t sacked’.
‘He was asked to resign which is effectively the same as being sacked’.
‘I don’t know all of the facts; you should ask DD about his intentions’.
Complete bunch of tossers.
What did TM do to deserve the torrent of shit she is swimming against?

BBC is reporting sacked

The Guardian headline says sacked too.

Bye bye Dave. It’s been emotional

Or maybe not. Seeing as this bunch of posturing shysters seem to exist purely for their own self-advancement, and ‘principles’ seem to be some sort of abstract, throw-away concept.

Until the last few years I never imagined that British politics could end up as this much of a circus. It makes the fag end of John Majors government look like the model of competence and stability

And stil she clings on

When DD said he would resign he meant get sacked, in the same way that greene resigned and was certainly or sacked or told he was no longer welcome. You know it’s just different, also did he say one thing when he was in a different place so it didn’t really count.

Mike, he was sacked and his apologists from a couple of weeks ago are notable by their absence.
Davis must stay because, if he goes, Dead Ringers will need a new character to replace the brexit bulldog.

Still find the worst part is they think its ok to tell the world they share passwords.

May appears the only competent one.

The ideal solution would be to keep her on the brexit nonsence whilst a new government fixes the numerous real problems

That is the quite incredible thing here – May’s credibility goes up by the day when you compare her with those around her.

Mike, he was sacked and his apologists from a couple of weeks ago are notable by their absence.

My point was mainly that through the use of lots of words and swapping the order DD etc. will claim that what he said was not what he said and even if it was he wouldn’t, probably which goes to show he is a man who should be trusted with nothing more important or responsible than ?? there is the problem I can’t think of anything

It’s a smear campaign
