MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
Not a single cabinet member present in the Commons
Penny Mordaunt, who confirmed she'd vote to support the reports findings. Possibly boosting her next attempt to be the leader of the Tory party.
But pretty poor from the other spineless enablers of Boris' lying
Mordaunt is playing a blinder. I don't know if she's getting advice or doing it off her own bat. The really lovely thing is that the person that will be most pissed off by the rise of Pretty Penny is Thick Lizzy.
Oh how we laughed.
I don’t think you’d struggle to name the 7 of them
Happy birthday Boris!
354 to 7.
Boris’ support finally revealed/exposed.
Yup, about 290 of the slime bags
I don’t think you’d struggle to name the 7 of them
Having looked at the list I think you would. First time I knew half of them existed although in at least one case looks like because their moronic statements stayed in the local press rather than national.
The haunted pencil and co seem to abstained instead.
Who voted :
https://votes.parliament.uk/Votes/Commons/Division/1566
Among the cons, 118 ayes, 6 noes.
The obvious noes, reet smug, mad nad etc obeyed their glorious leader's command and abstained.
Our Tory MP voted for the motion, interesting.
Hadn't realised Fiona Bruce was a Tory MP though. Question Time makes more sense!
Still feels like he has got away with it. Should be barred from politics for life for being a lying shit
Still feels like he has got away with it. Should be barred from politics for life for being a lying shit
That decision rests in the hands of voters. I can’t imagine even the safest Tory seat being willing to risk selecting him in the short-medium term anyway.
Still feels like he has got away with it.
Because he has. As always!
Once again, he’s just shrugged and strolled away, leaving chaos in his wake, and he’s straight on to the next (highly paid) grift. He couldn’t care less about what happened last night. That’s ancient history already, disappearing in his rear view mirror already
Considering what he’s been responsible for since 2016, he should be behind bars.
Instead he’ll be as ever-present, as always, gobbing off and lobbing hand grenades at everyone with his usual ****less abandon, via the medium of the Daily Mail, surely his spiritual home
Okay, before reading this, remember that Johnson blamed the EU for previous Russian military intervention in Ukraine (after meeting with Russians) and his conversion to Ukraine sovereignty & independence was quite a recent thing (that happened to be politically useful… still dragged his heals when it came to sanctions on Russian contacts even then)…

I wonder what Lebedev.com has on the old fly tipped sofa,it must be something humungus.
didn’t he attend a party at a property of Lebedev’s in Italy & was spotted looking rather disheveled (more than usual) on the way home? May have also travelled without his security as well??
as foreign secretary he ditched his protection team and took a meeting with lebedev and his father, a serving fsb member. ****ing outrageous on several levels, not least when lebedev winds up on his honors list.

Patience, the system takes time to get all the ducks aligned. The arrogance will be his downfall, he's forgotten that the arses he kicked on the way up are the ones he'll need to kiss on the way down.

Straightforward honey trap with accompanying video and audio would be my bet.
It wouldn't need to be anything sophisticated to entrap someone as venal, reckless and arrogant as Johnson.
Straightforward honey trap with accompanying video and audio would be my bet.
I dunno. Just on the grounds I cant see Johnson really caring since cheating on his partner is just routine for him.
The tories would forgive him anyway and the rest of us would be too busy projectile vomiting after seeing the photos to really do anything.
He won't care, he can just wheel out the excuse that the Nasty EU are trying to tar his name after the success of his Brexit.
The arrogance will be his downfall, he’s forgotten that the arses he kicked on the way up are the ones he’ll need to kiss on the way down.
More like he has never thought that he could fall down at all, it's only up for him in his mind.
Yes, but Carrie will take him to the cleaners. She's no mug when it comes to getting a payout.
Surely he wouldn't ennoble someone just because they were a family member or had extended the hand of friendship to him whilst in office?
Kelvin McKenzie is taking it well in his latest, clearly drunk or high, Mail column.
We always knew he was at best a useful idiot for the russians and that Putin wanted to destabilise and weaken both the UK and the EU brexit being his tool to do so
I actually believe Johnson was more than a useful idiot. I believe he knew he was being played but wanted the money
Someone needs to tell Kelvin its a bit early in the day for smoking crack 😳
McKenzie has made a career out of supposedly advancing the interests of thickos (or so they think) whilst actually cynically taking the piss out of them. I don't see anything different in that daft little ditty.🤷♂️
Yet another thing he’ll just walk away from, waving two fingers at us all, with absolutely no sanction
https://twitter.com/peston/status/1673632007811739649?s=46&t=1lK7Dw1b6RqGJyvufO-trQ
enquiry will see his full unredacted whatsapp messages.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-66123656
If he has deleted the ones he doesn't want to be seen, how will anyone be any the wiser? (unless those he was in conversation with grass him up)
If he has deleted the ones he doesn’t want to be seen, how will anyone be any the wiser? (unless those he was in conversation with grass him up)
Of course he will have deleted them. He doesn't give a shit about due process or honesty, just preserving his lying skin.
🤷♂️
Given who he’ll likely have been in conversation with, I doubt many will feel like doing him any favours
The thing is if everyone you communicate with knows you’re a liar you can be sure as hell that they’ll be keeping their copies knowing you’ll be deleting yours
I doubt many will feel like doing him any favours
But if they’re implicated as well, they won’t complain about what’s gone missing.
you can be sure as hell that they’ll be keeping their copies knowing you’ll be deleting yours
That was my thinking.... and then what's worse, an 'incriminating' message showing bad decisions / incompetence, or the same that you've then tried to cover up but someone else kept a copy of.
I've said before - not trying to defend 'the man' himself but in a 'play the ball not the man' way, it was a high pressured time and mistakes will have been made that we should now be learning from. If that goes beyond honest mistakes into incompetence, let it be noted as such as well, with the repercussions that reputations and future reliance is adjusted accordingly. If it goes beyond incompetence into corruption, then let's act on that.
So if they have faith they did all the best they could at the time, what is there to fear from revealing this stuff.
Nah. They're such a coterie of self-serving bastards there will be something dodgy from each party in each conversation. They're not clever or organised enough to get together or to completely shaft each other, so they'll do the bastard-like thing and delete everything in an attempt to cover it up.
We can't have a thread on every Tory MP individually, but ....... Johnny Mercer on QT. What? I used to think he was bordering on the OK end of Tory MP's,but this last week or so, culminating in tonight's show..... reappraised.
I do like what someone observed on SM. He was claiming that as Dale Vince has donated to some Labour MPs, and also donated to Just Stop Oil - that means Labour and JSO are somehow linked / the same. So if I donate to the IRA and also to the Tory party, then the Tory party and the IRA are also linked?
And on a 2-for-1 - Andrea Jenkyns. Why can't teachers strike on days they don't work to minimise disruption?
Just watching QT now. What a pompous, arrogant, condescending prick Johnny Mercer is
Clearly a man who’s never heard the word no in his life. Everyone else shut up, I’m talking. And if you insist on talking when I want to, I’ll just shout over you
what an obnoxious ****!
No wonder he’s a natural fit in the Tory party
Horrible Bloke, summed up the new Tory party to me. Made Kate Andrews seem reasonable. Sick (generation X interpretation).
I’ve said before – not trying to defend ‘the man’ himself but in a ‘play the ball not the man’ way, it was a high pressured time and mistakes will have been made that we should now be learning from.

Easy to lose sight of this. Whatever we feel about the handling of Covid, this enquiry is about learning lessons so we do better next time - because there will be a next time.
Obviously, if we have evidence of lying and corruption as a result that destroys careers and reputations, its just a bonus.
Though I see they are still claiming that Boris's phone from 2020 is still unable to be accessed.....
So if I donate to the IRA and also to the Tory party, then the Tory party and the IRA are also linked?
It depends on how much you donate.
You giving a fiver then nope.
You giving a million or so then it should trigger a check on what you want and whether they should be associated with you. Part of that would include other causes you support.
A better comparison are all the Russians handing money to the tories.
Still nothing in the press about Charlotte Owen? Boozo was married to an Owen. She looks a bit beefy blonde. She got through and Dorries didn't, was it a quids pro quo?
Still nothing in the press about Charlotte Owen?
I'm not 100%, but I think there's a super-injunction covering it, so no one [in the press] is going near it.
He was claiming that as Dale Vince has donated to some Labour MPs, and also donated to Just Stop Oil.
The real troubling thing is the absolute acceptance that "Just Stop Oil" are the bad guys, even on a thread where everyone wails about Tories.
I would expect someone who accepts that the world is in an environmental emergency should be also be broadly aligned to Labour principles, why is that a problem?
“Just Stop Oil” are the bad guys
Tell me you don't read the red-tops..etc etc.
I think the Tories and RW press have been waiting for something like JSO to come along for ages now. They see how the Republicans have turned both BLM and Antifa into catchall bogeymen that they can use in both a "cultural", "anti democratic", "anti-law" sense and their supporters lap it up, The Tories and the red tops are hoping to use JSO in exactly the same way. I don't think there's not been coverage of some "outrage" that The Sun, The Express, The Mail haven't printed daily for weeks and weeks now.
To an extent, it'll work.
I’m not 100%, but I think there’s a super-injunction covering it, so no one [in the press] is going near it.
Or they didnt find anything. At least not enough to beat a libel case.
I would have thought an injunction would be hard to get in this case. Since the media would have the public interest defence in the number 10 jobs and the life peerage.

Have I Got News For You had a little dig, think it was thecseason finale.

Marina Hyde did comment on it in the Guardian, saying that the only thing we need to know is whether he fathered her or shagged her, because its one or the other
Or potentially both, if he was in the dark about the fathering bit? It's always a bit of a risk once the number of kids goes beyond a certain number.
EDIT: Nice to see it's not just me thinking the worst. 🙂

It worked for 50 years with the 'global communist threat'.
Particularly in the developing world, the US ended up propping up all sorts of despots as any stirring of demand for redistribution was immediately branded a stooge of Moscow.
Different times, different bogeyman, same scared little people who silo themselves off from the world then live in fear of it. Sigh.

A little bit of sick just came up.
Or they didnt find anything.
Is more than likely the right answer TBH. I can honestly see Johnson doing this (making her a life peer) just as a **** you to everyone. It's about his level.
Or potentially both, if he was in the dark about the fathering bit? It’s always a bit of a risk once the number of kids goes beyond a certain number.
Almost the storyline from an episode of My Name is Earl, on why Joy wasn't allowed out with black boys.
<p style="text-align: left;">It is quite amazing how many kids he's knocked out given his porcine proportions and you know what they say about fat boys. Also with apparently otherwise intelligent women, it's a modern mystery.</p>
yet another one
https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2023/jul/11/carrie-boris-johnson-announce-birth-baby-boy-frank
I wonder if he’ll take them all (9) to Peppa Pig Land?
Grim on many levels.
Has he got a football team yet?
Has he got a football team yet?
Think he is a decent way towards having the reserves as well.
The Chelsea squad, including everyone on loan around Europe
sly dig in the Guardian announcement
"The former prime minister Boris Johnson is keen to be thought of as a scholar of the classics. In Greek mythology, Odysseus leaves behind his wife and child to seek adventure, encountering many other women along the way"
I see he's not handed in his mobile yet, wasn't that meant to happen by 4pm today?
Hey… what’s another offence to add to his ever lengthening list?
And just like their messiah, mad nad, Rees-Mogg, fabri**** and all the rest of them walked away with no sanction for their various misdemeanours and remain completely unapologetic with not a shred of contrition
Utterly shameless, the lot of them!
He's also really busy trying to remember how to turn on his old phone.
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/boris-johnson-covid-inquiry-whatsapps-b2372638.html?utm_source=reddit.com
Maybe he should just get an assistant to drop it into the North Sea?
He's probably trying to remember which of his multiple old phones is the old phone in question. Someone of his level of criminality and untrustworthiness must have dozens.
Mad Nads book "the plot" is going to be out just before the tory conference.
Might explain why she keeps forgetting to formally hand in her notice. She has been too busy with this.
“I wanted to discover the forces behind the downfall of the prime minister. Instead I found a fault line within the Conservative party stretching back decades and a history of deception fuelled by the darkest political arts,” said Ms Dorries.
She added: “If you thought that power flowed from the people into parliament, be prepared to think again.”
Sounds proper weapons grade conspiracy theory bollox.
Surely power flows from money into parliament...is that not what the current government has shown us all?
Darkest political arts.
Sounds positively satanic.

Carthago delenda est.

Different sim cards was the way, I believe.
Let us be clear about this - there is no way, absolutely no way that the covid enquiry is going to see all of his messages unredacted. Not a chance.
We know he just wanted to let covid rip, we know he missed vital COBRA meetings because he was probably off boning someone else's missus. The actual words he used around that stuff are likely to reveal, to even the hardest of thinking, what an utter **** he is.
And Mad Nad can **** off as well.
Scum, the pair of them.
the forces behind the downfall of the prime minister
Them being, he is a narcissistic arse candle.
I've jusr been chatting to a young French man who said 'it was funny to see him drunk at important meetings when everyone else seemed focused.' Why didn't we see much of that?
Why didn’t we see much of that?
Threats to broadcasters.
Why didn’t we see much of that?
We did. He didn’t hide it by pretending not to be drunk, but by pretending to be drunk when he wasn’t.
Go look at any clip of him while PM, and ask yourself how many he’s had. “Good old Boris”.
"forgot the passcode"
I'm sure that the admins of the MDM can help him with that, unless they are personal phones that he should not be using for official business.
Otherwise, NCSC could probably solve the problem.
“forgot the passcode”
Could be it was the birth date of one of his kids. He just hit the lock out limit before remembering which one.
