I doubt he can remember the birthdays of his legitimate kids, never mind all the rest
TBH if they locked him up in a cell with it until he unlocked it he’d soon remember.
Still typical Boris.
I’m sure something will happen to it, accidentally falling in to the Atlantic or something.
“forgot the passcode”
Section 49 allows for up to 5 years imprisonment for failing to divulge a phone's passkey when national security is concerned, 2 years otherwise. Forgetting is not an excuse. Should think this will sharpen his memory.
Section 49
One rule for them, another for the rest of us . . .
TBH if they locked him up in a cell with it until he unlocked it he’d soon remember.
Just keeping him from his booze would do it. He'd crack inside 6 hours.
His lawyers would keep that going long enough he’d never make it to court
100%.
He has access to legal help that 99.9% of population can't obtain. He uses public money whenever possible too. And what does he use these for? To prevent the public from seeing what he is really like.
And a section of society still think he is just a bit of a lad.
He's a **** and they are stupid.
Hiya,
The Dog ate my phone. I can't remember my pin. It's a conspiracy of the lefties trying to bring me down.
It's all OK mad Nad will be along in a moment to tell the public of her latest masterpiece on how the establishment had taken her love down.
Good grief..,
JeZ
Sorry, Mad Nads is too busy arguing with the civil service about her missing peerage. She is apparently writing a book about how dark forces took down Boris, but we'll have to wait for that.
It would appear the cabinet office has the code to his phone, would have loved to have seen his face when he was told this.

Thing is, I don't think Sunak wants anyone to see those messages either.
I doubt anyone in government wants these messages made public.
Plenty of them despise Johnson but they're all dragging their feet. The total lack of urgency or any pressure to sort this easily sortable 'problem' out would suggest a lot of people would be happy for these to stay buried.
Lets be honest, there can only be one answer to the question 'would you like all the communications you had with Boris Johnson to be made public?', isn't there?
Section 49 allows for up to 5 years imprisonment for failing to divulge a phone’s passkey when national security is concerned, 2 years otherwise. Forgetting is not an excuse. Should think this will sharpen his memory.
That's not really correct. s49 RIPA just allows the issuance of the notice. It's s53 that makes it an offence to fail to comply.
You can't be convicted for failure to comply with the notice merely because you've forgotten - see s53(3).

Now the phone business is out of the way, we can move on to the next unexploded bomb left by the fly-tipped sofa. The youngest person ever to be given a life peerage, 29 year old Charlotte Owen, wasn't even a political advisor, she was a personal assistant to Johnson and was only there as maternity cover
We don't know any more than that because somebody (whoever could it be?) has paid for a super-injunction to prevent any further details being published
My money is on that she's his daughter.
How long can you keep a "super injunction" going?
I can't find the name on the net of the child Johnson had with Allegra Mostyn-Owen around 1993. Odd that. Blimey there must be loads of computer wizards on here to either come up with an answer or a telling blank.
We don’t know any more than that because somebody (whoever could it be?) has paid for a super-injunction to prevent any further details being published
Or there isn't, depending on which dubious Twitter (or otherwise) source you believe
I suppose its just perfectly normal in Borisworld to appoint a 29 year old office temp to the House of Lords for life
She's either his daughter or he's been boffing her. I imagine its the former or Carrie Antionette might have had a thing to say about the new baroness, because its either one or the other
...or both.
it's also pretty horrific that this is the state of uk politics now, there is no embarrassment about this and the party either thinks this is ok or has no choice but to toe the line. Right at the point where we really need government to be able to govern is it barely able to wipe it's own arse 🙁
How long can you keep a “super injunction” going?
In theory forever.
However pretty much by definition it cant be a super injunction since if it was then no one would be allowed to say it exists.
I expect it would be a rather hard sell to a judge as well. Random extra kid then sure a injunction about naming them would be feasible but that kid then getting into the lords would present a rather large public interest argument.

Thanks. Obviously, these things don't work in a vacuum so the more you can spread the petition around on social media the better!
Done.👍
Ok, it is fair enough that some are elected to the House of Lords because of long service to the nation they love, and have worked their entire careers towards its betterment.
But this appointment is not just a farce, but it also belittles those who have spent their time in service.
It just proves how little respect (as if we needed any more evidence) he holds for the "Great Institution" that is our political system. He just sees it as his personal playset.
She’s either his daughter or he’s been boffing her.
The former is almost guaranteed but I wouldn't put it past him to have thought about the latter.
but I wouldn’t put it past him to have thought about the latter.
Going full Trump?
Does Owen have any children?
Signed although I share moimoifan's lack of optimism that it will achieve anything.
They've already 'explained' why she was getting it, the fact that their explanation was completely devoid of detail, specifics or even a modicum of respect is by-the-by unfortunately ☹️
Edit: I tell a lie, it's not an explanation, just a 'defence' of her role
"“As Boris’s PPS I can confirm Charlotte worked in No 10 as an adviser since February 2021 and did an outstanding job working for the boss,” he said. “She was in the shadows but was a serious player but never wanted to be in the limelight like so many inferior people.”
Heaton-Harris also praised Owen, telling the Times: “She was an outstanding special adviser to me in my role as chief whip jointly with the prime minister. Nobody had their finger on the pulse of the parliamentary party like she did. The House of Lords is a place which needs to reflect the whole of society, and I know she will work hard and make an outstanding contribution.”
Signed & donated.
300+ signatures already and its starting to appear on facebook!
Signed. t does rather make the forelock tuggers look even more ludicrous.
I assume there is a Stipend that goes with the honour?
EDIT: I did my own research and it appears to be an unpaid position.
No stipend but a daily attendance allowance of £342 can be claimed - this includes overnight & subsistence; other allowable expenses can be reclaimed.
A few top bods and any gov ministers in the Lords are salaried.
To claim the daily allowance - turn up, sign in, go for coffee or bucket of claret or abuse the staff to kill some time, leave.
I don't believe there's any requirement to do the tiresome business of sitting in the chamber or participating.
So...free money.
Unpaid in theory. IN practice very well paid as you get paid every day you sign in as "expenses" as sum that is way above the national average wage - you don't have to do anything to get this money - no speeches no receipts. turn up for 5 mins get hundreds of pounds. Plus cheap food and drink ( subsidised by the taxpayer) plus all those lucrative bribes - I mean non exec directorships / lobby roles etc)
Being in the lords is an easy way to get rich
I assume there is a Stipend that goes with the honour?
Which honour are you talking about?
Whilst they have to turn up every day they do they get up to 332 daily allowance plus travel expenses and subsidised food.
Dont even need to stay the day but just stick your head in the door.
So its not a bad "job" to have for life.
Equally unhelpful to bump someone up to Da Lordz without any transparency or due process. BloJo vanity bringing it upon himself. I really hope he just dies as he’ll never get brought down by any of this. ****.

Which over the 150 odd days the Lord's sit a year works out at about £50k, so not a salary but not, not a salary then 😉
Plus a few extra expense claims and whatever retainer you can score down Tufton street.
She's a made Woman now...

Hopefully that stirs things up so Johnson is somehow compelled to refute it.
But, of course, he won't. He'll do what he always does - go to earth for a few days then reappear with some ****tish ramblings in the Daily Hate. Job, jobbed. Morons appeased, dead cat on table, 24 hour 'tricky spell' survived.
And, after all, he's just a bit of a lad, eh?
He’s turbocharged nepotism to a ridiculous degree, hasn’t he?
I know that over the years he’s tried to get every official member of his family into the House of Lords, but if he gets all his illegitimate offspring in too, then they’ll have to extend the building

Not unusual though to see some of the Lords deep in thought, or are they dozing or even asleep. So why spend your time at home when you can go down the club and live there.
And the chamber is really only a small part of the complex, as there is a restaurant and bars, all with plush wingback seating.
Johnson... the dog turd you can't avoid stepping in and can't scrape off the sole of your shoe however hard you try.
and on that note and as a suprise to precisely nobody......
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-67242822
I'm going to have to stop watching it now.
Maybe it'll be the new Mr Blobby, spouting similar insights.
The turd that won't flush,
With spirit-crushing inevitability...
He'll be surrounded by his entire 2020 cabinet, won't he?
Thinking it through......Wilson, Heath, Callaghan, Thatcher, Major, Blair, Brown, Cameron, May.....all the prime ministers of my life before Johnson. What did they have in common... Oh, that's it - none of them went on to be a presenter on a shoddy politicised half baked TV channel. Classy move from a classy guy. When he ****s this one up do you think Philip will let him have a go with Gordon the Goffer in his broom cupboard?
I guess this way he'll get to spend a bit of time schmoozing the next leader of the Tory party (Farage) to see if he could do him a favour and let him back in.
I read about this earlier today, and my first thought was, “well, of course he has”, before I closed the article and promptly forgot about the odious turd. He’s exactly where he ought to be, where those possessing similar qualities can easily find him, and his ilk, and where everyone knows where to avoid him.
May he spend the rest of his life in abject obscurity.
Ofcom will need to staff up.

Oh yes, Truss the most popular draw at the conference, with possibly a bright future ahead of her in the new Conservative Front, Boris on 250k a speech plus a massive GBeebies salary no doubt, S..I...R Jacob Rees Mogg.......I could go on and on and on
Their failures certainly put my success in perspective.
He'll do what he always does. Rock up at the last minute totally unprepared, make up some claptrap, say something he shouldn't, get sacked. All while cashing the cheques. Woke left get blamed and he makes more money.

Can't be easy bankrolling the ex-wives, the current wife, the mistresses and however many Mini-Boris's there are knocking around....
Grifters gotta grift.
He'll be caught shagging one of the GB News interns or make-up girls before too long.
I bet they will have to gather all the female staff at GBN together to have a chat with them about him...
What did they have in common…
They werent "journalists" in a previous life?
One thing which always amuses me about the hard right whining about the journalists representing the elite is how many of them are the journalist elite.
Even ****ing cummings got in the act.

I think BJ will just waffle on about everything, I’m not sure he actually stands for anything other than himself tbh so weirdly the right will be lapping up stuff thought up on the spot by someone who doesn’t hold their convictions.
You’d think they’d have figured this out by now(tunnels to N.I, 40 new hospitals, x anmount for nhs a month, and the North Sea trade barrier that he poo pooed that would never happen.)
