Boris Cleared!

[Khandro]

A triumph for common sense, and one in the eye for the p.c. virtue signallers?

Makes no sense that folk feel the need to rule on the blatantly obvious.

[youngmafbog]

Unfortunately OG, the perpetually offended do need putting back in their cage and reminding we have free speech in this country.

By whatever legal means possible.

[naomi24]

Good. What a load of nonsense.

[jno]

lol, the party rules he didn't break are extremely flexible, you can even call the party leader what you like. (But Corbyn mustn't!)

[Zacs-Master]

I think the 'verdict' is more to do with it being Boris and the Old Boys Network than a reason to think there has been some backlash against PCness.

[naomi24]

House etiquette, jno. Big difference.

// the party rules he didn't break are extremely flexible //

Good. Bit of a waste of time having the enquiry in the first place then.

[jno]

just so, naomi, in the house you mustn't even move your lips in ways that offend snowflake Tories.

[youngmafbog]

Right-on ZM.

[naomi24]

House etiquette applies to snowflakes of all hues, jno.

[Zacs-Master]

Nothing to do with 'snowflakes' and everything to do with trying to discredit the opposition in these turbulent times.

[youngmafbog]

I thought politicians of all colours have tried to discredit their opponents since time began.

[jno]

currently the Tories are trying hardest to discredit themselves, which is comparatively rare. Nice to see them looking outward for a change

[Zacs-Master]

Must have been a rhetorical comment.

[youngmafbog]

"currently the Tories are trying hardest to discredit themselves,"

And Labour are not?

[ludwig]

Corbyn's doing a pretty good job of discrediting himself at the moment by showing what a shocking liar he is.

[Khandro]

Zacs; //I think the 'verdict' is more to do with it being Boris and the Old Boys Network//

Just think where you might have been now if only you hadn't been kicked out of Eton.

[Zacs-Master]

How on Earth did you know about that, Khandro! It was Matron's fault.

[Khandro]

Zacs; If it's any consolation, I never believed all that stuff about the postal order.

[Zacs-Master]

Ha!
