Private Eye Number Crunching

[Hymie]

40-50 People who attended staff Christmas party at 10 Downing Street on 18 December 2020, when Tier 3 restrictions said that ‘no events should take place, no mixing of households indoors’.

Zero Coronavirus rules PM insists were broken on this jolly occasion.

Gromit @07.52 I see that you conveniently missed commenting on the headline of that piece.

I read past the headline, which you clearly did not.

There is a disconnect between the headline and the words below it. The comment below the headline mentions Starmer just once, to say he is a dud.

[dannyk13]

Gromit, did you read far enough to see Boris's achievements?

[emmie]

danny, some people don't see that, it's too black and white for some

I think the headline has thrown you.

The Daily Mail COMMENT was a warning from a friend that the Prime Minister has made a mistake on this and a few other things recently (Patterson). And that he needs to up his game.

It is a critical piece not a glowing tribute.

Gromit, one poit of that article, as shown by the headline, was do you want to replace Boris with Keith Starmer.This from the article:-
//Sir Keir Starmer, by contrast, is an unremitting dud. He has nothing remotely useful or incisive to say about the major issues of our time — particularly on the pandemic.//

[Gromit]

There have been numerous examples of the PMs colleagues breaking lockdown rules, the party at No.10 is just the latest.
The Barnard Castle PR disaster was the start. The Garden at No.10 used for a bizarre Cummings monologue, where he explained away a 600 mile trip as for testing his eye sight. No one ever believed that excuse, but it set a precedent: - Lie your way out of any difficult situation.

[dannyk13]

Gromit, answer the question.Do you want Keir Starmer as PM?

[Gromit]

Dannyk13

No.

Johnson will not be Prime Minister much longer if he doesn’t get a grip and cleans up his sh*tshow.

[dannyk13]

THank you Gromit.

[Gromit]

Dannyk13,

You must have missed my post yesterday.

// We have the worst Government for decades, but also the worst opposition. //

[emmie]

no government in recent times, has had to go through what this one has, Brexit, Covid, thousands dying. I could go on, but what's the point, you hate him and his government....

[mushroom25]

do you get commission every time you mention Private Eye, Hymie?
asking for a friend.

[youngmafbog]

Yes many of us do hate him, even many Tories outside the London bubble he is despised.

Lying liberal green Clown. Needs to go. If we had a half decent opposition he would have been toast ages ago.

Lying and having utter contempt for the public has nothing to do with Covid or Brexit.

[naomi24]

YMB, //even many Tories outside the London bubble he is despised. //

You keep saying that and I've no idea why. As I've said before I live outside the 'London bubble' and I don't know anyone who hates him.

[bobbinwales]

The 'green' tag you give him is nonsense. No party has a ungreen agenda , it would be political suicide to try to appeal to a few dinosaurs
