The Labour Party has declined to comment."

DonkeyHoaty on another thread " would put immense pressure on the PM to follow suit? "
Ken on this thread: "wouldn't that put immense pressure on Johnson to do likewise? "
very similar terminology, Ken = DH, what do we think?
Aw bless you. Your fascination with me persists. Well, it’s bordering on paranoia now but never mind.
So far I am or have been Spath, TheDevil and now I am Ken too.
Your rather poor and tired attempts at deflecting the pressure from Johnson is futile.
As I said previously, Beergate may well prove to be a master stroke.
Both Starmer and Rayner have indicated that they will resign if fined.
Just because you deem Beergate and Partygate as trivial matters not a jot, it’s just your poor attempt at a diversionary tactic.
I’m more than happy for Starmer and Rayner to become sacrificial lambs if it means the end of Johnson.
In fact it’ll undoubtedly speed up the imminent second round of Downing St FPN’s and herald the imminent publishing of Gray: The Full Monty.
But thanks again for your continued paranoia ToraToraTora, it’s a source of great amusement to me.

You raise an interesting point I’d not thought of. Whatever happens, Labour wins. Either Durham will find there are no charges to answer, which’ll reveal beergate as the deflection it is, or Starmer will be issued with a FPN, resign and show Johnson what integrity looks like.
Beergate *could* turn out to be an own goal.

I said exactly that days ago. The Johnson lickspittles fail to read what is adorned on the brickwork directly in front of them.

I forgot to mention, apparently I could be Retrocop too, if the recent thread about me is any indication?
So I’m 4 different users, returning in a new guise.
Surely ToraToraTora has better things to do than get fixated with someone on an Internet forum whom he’ll never physically meet?
Please assure me that he has?

As I said at 14.01 on Friday 6th of May on the Sir Beer Karma thread.

It could actually be a master stroke.
If he is found guilty and receives a FPN he may well feel obliged to resign. Rayner may have to as well.
That would put pressure on Johnson and Sunak to do the honourable thing, as so many have in government in the last 6 months.
As the BBC are currently reporting, Dominic Cummings broke lockdown rules when he entered the county of Durham.
The line of the local Constabulary was that they do not issue retrospective fines, which is also interesting.
The sooner we get all the Downing St FPN’s issued in conjunction with the unredacted Gray report the sooner this whole political mess can be remedied, surely?

"The line of the local Constabulary was that they do not issue retrospective fines, " - they do all the time, in fact every fine in history is retrospective. No one gets fined before they do something do they? Boris' fine was retrospective was it not?
Read my post again, genius.
We are talking about Durham Constabulary, not the Met, just as currently being reported by the BBC. I did point that out, read it again, slowly if it helps.
