Even More Bad News For Boris

His policy chief has quit over the Starmer slur
https:/
In her resignation letter she wrote :
I believe it was
wrong for you to imply this week
that Keir Starmer was personally
responsible for allowing Jimmy
Savile to escape justice.
"There was no fair or reasonable
basis for that assertion. This was
not the usual cut and thrust of
politics; it was an inappropriate
and partisan reference to a
horrendous case of child sex
abuse.
"You tried to clarify your position
today but, despite my urging, you
did not apologise for the
misleading impression you gave."
Just will not listen to anyone will he ?
At least someone else in his entourage ‘gets it’ and has done the honourable thing
When will Boris do the same ?

Nothing more boring than the leader of a country running off at the mouth when cornered is there Zacs? What is everybody thinking? Ganging up on an inadequate who's only trying his best. A chancer, a liar, a bully and now it seems, a huffy teenager in the body of a man.

Since the PM has "clarified" his original comments, he clearly wasn't correct in the first instance.
In particular, on Monday Johnson pointedly used the word "decided", as in "[Starmer] decided not to prosecute Savile". This is clearly not the same as "Starmer was in charge of an organisation, a member of which, who was a different person ie not Starmer, decided not to prosecute Savile". The second is correct (if completely irrelevant to a discussion about Partygate. The first -- that is, what Johnson actually said -- is not.

Rodders was in charge of the CPS when they chose not to prosecute JS, end of. You lot have been going on about birthday cake for weeks when the buck stops with the PM. You can't have it both ways.
———
But as you have been made aware he has been told he was wrong
The former chief whip of the Tory party told him so along with other Tory MPs
Sunak says that he would not have made the claim
So do you disagree with senior Tories and the current Tory chancellor ?
Yes or no ?
Not a difficult question
Even you can manage this one ! Lol
As for the bit about cake
Starmer told the truth
Boris has done anything but in terms of cake and parties and social gatherings

Ah, good old semantics eh jim, said in the heat of discussion. I think most people know what he meant, including you.
As I wrote in another post, the problem is Sir Kier has been using the buck stops with the man at the top to get to Johnson, fair play I agree with him. But now the boot is on the other foot there is outrage from the left. You simply cannot have it both ways.
For the record I dont think Johnson should have said it, it was definitely scraping the barrel but then as I said above its heat of the moment debates, they are not scripted.
As for the commie going, well good riddance, should never have been there.

Yes but in the case of Johnson it’s not that stuff has been going on behind his back as he has claimed.
He’s changed his story several times as things have leaked out from other sources. It’s his integrity and honesty which is being examined, not whether he should take responsibility for others’ failings

SB: "So do you disagree with senior Tories and the current Tory chancellor ?
Yes or no ? " - yes, the gloves are off, if the reds don't like it don't play with the big boys.

Ah right !
So does that mean the PM or anyone else can make spurious and unfounded allegations in parliament ?
If the gloves are off she’ll we do a comparison between Starmer and Johnson ?

From that link :
Tory MP Boris Johnson was sacked from his party's front bench last night over lurid claims about his love life.
His fate was sealed by the mother of his alleged mistress, Petronella Wyatt, who said her daughter had become pregnant by him and had an abortion last month.
Johnson, who is married with four children, had categorically dismissed the allegations only last week as an 'inverted pyramid of piffle'- and, crucially, he had assured Tory leader Michael Howard they were untrue.

From that link :
She says they met up once a week at the height of the affair, she sent arty topless pictures and admits: “I loved him. I adored him.”
Jennifer reveals a mutual “physical and intellectual attraction”. They shared a love of Shakespeare, she codenamed him Alexander the Great, and she says he loved her body and mind and “couldn’t keep his hands off me” on their first tryst.
But ultimately, she says, he was a “cowardly wet noodle” for not standing by her in the row over her presence on foreign trade trips.

From that link :
Boris Johnson's former mistress has refuted his claim he made Matt Hancock leave his job, declaring 'Boris can't sack someone for adultery because then he'd have to sack himself'.
Petronella Wyatt, 53, ridiculed the Prime Minister's suggestion yesterday he had been responsible for the Health Secretary resigning on Saturday evening.
On Friday Johnson backed Hancock after his affair with aide Gina Coladangelo and said he 'considered the matter closed'.
This is a serial shagger and habitual liar with massive contempt for the public
He is lucky that Starmer cannot use any of this in parliament
He would be eviscerated

SB: "So does that mean the PM or anyone else can make spurious and unfounded allegations in parliament ? " - no it means expect a fight. Did you think the PM was not going to fight back? Rodders was in charge of the CPS when the decision was made not to prosecute JS, FACT, the buck stops with him as you and others have said of Boris, end of.

Boris Johnson's spin chief has resigned - becoming the second key aide to the prime minister to quit in a matter of hours.
Jack Doyle, Number 10's director of communications, is standing down from his role and is reported to have told staff that recent weeks in Downing Street had "taken a terrible toll on my family life".
News of his departure came just hours after another of the prime minister's top aides, Number 10 policy chief Munira Mirza, quit over Mr Johnson's use of a discredited claim that Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer personally failed to prosecute Jimmy Savile.
Further pressure was heaped on the prime minister over that row when Chancellor Rishi Sunak, widely touted as a potential successor to Mr Johnson, told reporters: "I wouldn't have said it."
Sky News' political editor Beth Rigby said Mr Doyle was not a household name but very well-known in Westminster.
"It really is sending shockwaves around here."
She said: "These two resignations on the back of three letters of no confidence yesterday suggests that political momentum is moving away from him (Johnson) and I imagine they will be very worried in Number 10 tonight."

Imagine the irony if an ill judged jibe about a nonce led to the (imminent anyway) downfall of someone who acts and behaves like a child
