Downing Street Christmas Party Pictures “Will Inevitably Get Out”, Says Dominic Cummings
Dominic Cummings, who previously served as Boris Johnson’s Chief of Staff until he was sacked in November 2020, has tweeted that “there’s lots of pictures of the parties which will inevitably get out”. The former Government adviser also said that most of the public’s attention should be focused on a party which he claims took place in the Prime Minister’s flat last year on November 13th. The Express has more.
Johnson has already lost one senior member of staff over the ongoing Christmas party scandal, and is facing calls to sack others – as well as to resign himself. But his former aide insists that the worst is yet to come.
The Government is under fire over reports of numerous parties held in Downing Street and elsewhere late last year, despite official Covid rules.
Video footage of the Prime Minister’s then-Press Secretary, Allegra Stratton, joking about a Christmas party in December 2020, just days after it is said to have taken place, emerged earlier this week.
This footage, featuring remarks Stratton said she would regret “for the rest of my days”, led to her resignation.
If footage from after the event has produced such a significant backlash, Downing Street will be horrified by the prospect of footage emerging from the party itself – or from any other party, from that matter.
That footage will emerge is, according to Cummings, “inevitable”.
Writing on Twitter, he said: “There’s lots of pictures of the parties which will inevitably get out.
“And invite lists beyond Number 10, to other departments…”
Some, but not all of the parties which are believed to have taken place in November and December last year will now be subjected to an official investigation.
In a separate post on Thursday, Cummings said “[our] focus should be [on the] actual party in the Prime Minister’s flat on November 13th”.
The party – or ‘gathering’, as officials would prefer to put it – which has been at the centre of this week’s controversy took place on December 18th.
The BBC has reported that Jack Doyle, Director of Communications at Downing Street, is believed to have been in attendance at the party.
He is accused of having given out a number of light-hearted awards amid party games, food and drink in an event that went on past midnight.

Et tu Dom
He should know, he has the photos
I hope so!
sounds like he is about to release them – any second now
The photos or footage will come out tonight but more probably tomorrow, in time for the Sunday papers – the last Sunday before Parliament goes into recess next Thursday.
Johnson to do PMQs on Wednesday as caretaker.
Prime minister Gove to deliver “Covid restrictions update” some time between 18th (Sat) and 21st (Tue).
Gove’s chief adviser to be…can you guess?
Most definitely NOT worth reading in full.
TBH the footage from parties and photos of attendees is a side issue.
Dom Cummings was involved at the heart of the covid planning. If he wanted to serve the nation with the truth he could divulge the truth about that.
But then if you cast your mind back to his day trip to Barnard Castle he couldn’t manage to tell the truth about that either so I wouldn’t hold your breath this time either.
He comes across as a kid caught smoking behind the bike sheds, who then grasses up all his mates.
The issue here isn’t that they had parties, it’s that we shouldn’t have ever been in lockdown, families should not have been led to believe they couldn’t hug ( wtf!? ) and last but not least, the elderly shouldn’t have been left to die alone and without saying goodbye to their relatives.
Cummings supported all that, but the public know that he didn’t care for the rules himself. He needs to shut the fuck up, before somebody does it for him.
Exactly – I said to my boss yesterday – I’m glad to hear they had parties. It just proves that the restrictions weren’t justifiable, because the virus obviously wasn’t scaring them any was it.
It proves beyond all reasonable doubt that the restrictions were unlawful, unnecessary and that we have been taken for mugs for the last 2 years
Masks etc. are Covid theatre, but this is a pantomime
Oh no it’s not!
Behind you!
Yep, it says that none of them inside government at the time believed it, Cummings included. Who cares, apart from a picture editor, if he has photos? Everyone knows that No 10, The Labour lot, Sturgeon et al were all partying and socialising while telling the rest what to do.
G7 in cornwall, Obama’s birthday party – you can just imagine the chat can’t you:
“these filthy masks are a TOTAL pain aren’t they – thank god we only have to wear them for the cameras – imagine having to wear them all the time, ha ha ha ha, like the little people”
Someone filmed Metropolitan Police officers all huddled in their vans, and all without face masks – some hurriedly put their masks on when they realised they were being filmed, and got a bit shirty about being caught red-handed.
These are the people who were dishing out fines – when they clearly don’t believe in “The Virus” themselves.
Yes. But since they did hold the parties, they need to be held to the same level of accountability as “the peasants.
“… [A]nd last but not least, the elderly shouldn’t have been left to die alone and without saying goodbye to their relatives …” Let’s hope that being left alone was all that was done to these old people. There were many instances back over the last year where people videotaped empty hospitals – care facilities that were reported in the MSM to be run off their feet. Then there were the reports about the Government purchasing huge amounts of midazolam early in the plandemic – if not even before it began. Prior to the plandemic midazolam was authorised only to be used in clinical settings, where life support systems were readily at hand. This is because midazolam is a very heavy-duty sedative which, among other things, suppresses breathing. Some states in the US even use it as an aid to execute criminals. The reports I mentioned above claimed that old people in non-clinical settings, such as nursing homes, were dosed up with this drug. It thus looks like that in readiness for the pandemic the Government purchased large amounts of midazolam, and authorised its use in non-clinical settings such as nursing and care homes. … Read more »
^^ Important post.
“I pray this isn’t true”.
It is true.
What if it were still happening? A relative arrived for a prebooked visit to her 95 year old Mum in hospital last week (she had been hospitalised twice before in the recent past but no proper diagnosis was offered). She and her Mum were conversing perfectly normally when suddenly her Mum started to gasp and about ten minutes later she died. There was talk of an autopsy but it did not happen and my relative did not push it or enquire about drugs her mum had taken. She was upset at this sudden death for no obvious reason though. Could it have been Midazolam? To hurry on her Mum’s demise and avoid further hospitalisations?
On the subject of autopsies/post-mortems, they can give a dead alpaca a post mortem, but do they do the same for “covid victims”.
Think what they’ve saved in pension payments! Old folk who paid all their working lives into a system which promised them care in their old age. Suddenly they can’t be afforded, so let’s knock ’em on the head instead.
The entire political class has shown it’s true colours over the past two years; it’s now our duty to tear them down. We’ve had far too many Eton/Oxbridge types in Westminster since they abolished the Grammar schools and so blocked entry into government by members of the Great Unwashed. Too many Johnstones, too many Camerons etc., whose sense of entitlement leads them to believe in their omnipotence and their right to tell the little man how to live. Even ‘conflict of interest’ means nothing any more.
Perhaps those seeking entry into politics should undergo psychiatric evaluation to determine their reasons, and their understanding of the phrase ‘to serve the people’. Also, the title ‘Right Honourable’ should not automatically be bestowed upon politicians. Perhaps it should be in the way of a title granted by public vote to those who have earned it. Because this nest of vipers is anything but honourable.
I’d say that it was true. But you’d have a hard time convincing the Covid Cultists, it would be dismissed, just like every other “crazy tin-foil hat conspiracy theory” that has turned out to be true.
Knowing how politics operate, these parties may have been organized precisely with the intent of blackmailing the participants later on.
Or using it as a timely distraction away from something else ….
A certain trial in the US…
^^ Another important post. Did you clock the Balmoral photo?
Guess who that’s a reference to. It’s not the “Duke of York”.
But close.
That’s usually done at the parties involving cocaine-filled candles and sex with children.
Yes, but nowadays it’s enough to have a party, cocaine and children no longer required.
Surely not, that requires a degree of intelligenc,e no matter how malign…
If Cummings had photos that were not meant to see the light of day, those who are running the show would have sent the men in black balaclavas round to give him that ride in their van around the block already.
Makes you wonder how he can sleep at night. What was that? I’m sure I heard something…
Unless he’s not the one-man band he likes to think he is.
He is probably part of a well organised cabal and just the front man. It’s more interesting that way. But it might be a dangerous game to play
The issue is what the state will do NEXT – and it’s not going to be pretty.
None of the bastards comes up smelling of roses, but that’s not the point.
It works like this: an officially “senior” person can do the rulers’ bidding for years, they can introduce major “shock” policies and measures, on behalf of whom they serve. They can stand there and spout all the bullshit reasons in the book. Perhaps they even think they’re the dog’s you-know-whats, as Sajid Javid obviously does, Matthew Hancock less so.
And then there comes a point when the next thing they are asked to do causes them to demur. This isn’t because they have suddenly decided mass murder is wrong, or anything like that. They remain as amoral as they always were. It’s because they’ve sussed that they are nothing but a pawn and the real rulers don’t give a shit about their personal interests, and after they’ve done the next thing they will be chucked in the bin. This happened to Robin Cook.
Sajid Javid comes to mind with his response to Johnson saying a national conversation might be needed about mandatory vaccines: namely that it would be “unethical”.
The problem I have with this outrage is that Covidians understand this as “Lockdown was the RIGHT thing to do- so they should’ve stuck by the rules” – as my witless neighbour told me this morning . Christ knows what it will take for her to realise what is really going on
The Pied Piper also comes carrying a stick, walking behind, goosing the subservient to march faster.
Ever heard Abba’s “The Piper” which was on the Super Trouper album, about 40 years ago. I re-discovered it just recently, Its a rather pleasant little tune and the lyrics are apt!
Tell her what areal pandemic will look like
“The flu took a heavy human toll, wiping out entire families and leaving countless widows and orphans in its wake. Funeral parlors were overwhelmed and bodies piled up. Many people had to dig graves for their own family members.
The flu was also detrimental to the economy. In the United States, businesses were forced to shut down because so many employees were sick. Basic services such as mail delivery and garbage collection were hindered due to flu-stricken workers.
In some places there weren’t enough farm workers to harvest crops. Even state and local health departments closed for business, hampering efforts to chronicle the spread of the 1918 flu and provide the public with answers about it.”
Spanish Flu – Symptoms, How It Began & Ended – HISTORY
And another thing
“Officials in some communities imposed quarantines, ordered citizens to wear masks and shut down public places, including schools, churches and theaters. People were advised to avoid shaking hands and to stay indoors, libraries put a halt on lending books and regulations were passed banning spitting.”
Didn’t work then, doesn’t work now.
The new German health minister (a covidian fanatic) announced that covid won’t be “conquered” until the end of his term. In other words, he already knows he is going to ride the covid waves continuously for the next 4 years, just like he has done for the past two years before. It’s a dream job for him, without any doubt.
it’s a sinecure not a job, as long as he keeps the taxpayer’s money flowing to the looting classes.
He was a TV personality with working class origins who almost has pop star status in Germany so the new government hopes he will appeal to the ordinary German people. He says he is going to rely on science not politics for his decisions but his utterances don’t bear this out
Difference then was it was a real pandemic and so the government took these decisions in desperation. Today there is no true pandemic nor ever has been so apart from just a cruel spike in Covid deaths in 2020 there was no justification for the restrictions and putting them into effect against the population was/is downright evil. What made it easier for our government to pull the wool over people’s eyes is that there is no folk memory of the 1918 Spanish Flu, especially in the UK which did not suffer the brunt of it like the USA did
I get where you’re going with this and I must admit upfront that I’ve not read that piece or searched it for sources which substantiate its account, but I will say first that history is written by the victors, and there’s at least one book dedicated to “a study of bias in the writing and teaching of history”: E.H. Dance: ‘History the Betrayer: A Study in Bias’ (1964) wherein in its Preface it includes the following words: “…In 1962 the Parliamentary Group of M.P.’s for World Government issued a book on History Syllabuses and a World Perspective…” Secondly, the evidence of my own lying eyes (or ears): I likely wouldn’t even be here writing this if a flu pandemic in the 1950s had turned out to actually be as serious as it’s now made out. But I recall zero discussion or even mention of the event at home or in conversations over many years with family and relations. And the same applied to the 1918 so-called Spanish* Flu pandemic. Never mentioned even by 3-4 relations who were then adults – though one of them had written home complaining at the time about being in military hospital for days dreadfully ill… Read more »
If you go to Wikipedia, they show estimates of between 16 and 100 million deaths. As for the Asian and Hong Kong flu they have estimates of between 1 and 4 million deaths. I would point out that the global population went through the 2 billion barrier in the mid 1920s and the 4 billion during the 1970s Read this it is really quite interesting The Rosenau Experiment, 1918-1919 | GG Archives (gjenvick.com) “The experiment began with 100 volunteers from the Navy who had no history of influenza. Rosenau was the first to report on the experiments conducted at Gallops Island in November and December 1918” Attempts were made to assess how the flu was being passed from person to person. “When that procedure failed to produce disease, others were inoculated with mixtures of other organisms isolated from the throats and noses of influenza patients. Next, some volunteers received injections of blood from influenza patients. Finally, 13 of the volunteers were taken into an influenza ward and exposed to 10 influenza patients each. Each volunteer was to shake hands with each patient, to talk with him at close range, and to permit him to cough directly into his face. None… Read more »
And let us never forgot that the modelling was based on this scenario, and because of this, some people still believe Covid to be the severity of the Spanish flu.
Even though Fergie and his pals know this, they haven’t done a damn thing to discourage the notion.
She will never wake up. Those who can’t see it now, never will
No, they will. It just won’t be pretty.
I recommend watching Yuri Bezmenov’s interviews and talks. He talks about demoralisation, which is exactly what we’re seeing. He says that people who are demoralised have no ability to evaluate truth or facts. Even if you furnish them with documents and pictures, even if you take them by force to the concentration camps, they will refuse to believe it. Until they get a kick in their fat bottoms. When the military boot crushes their balls, then they will see the truth. But not before that. That’s tragedy of demoralisation
To articulate the obvious oppositional truth, what the attendees should really be criticized for is the imposition of rules on all the “lesser” people that would prevent them from engaging in Christmas festivities as they were.
Feel free to have as many Christmas parties as you like, Downing Street revellers, just do us the courtesy of not trampling rough-shod over our right to do the same.
No – they should be criticised for imposing rules on the little people that they knew OBVIOUSLY WERE NOT NECESSARY because they didn’t see the need to abide by them themselves
I know. Went into town today, done all my shopping breathing free as a bird, as usual. There were other maskless souls braving it out for the first time and I gave them encouraging smiles. One young un-napped couple saw us when they entered the shopping centre, said “look they’re not masked either!” We got beady-eyed looks over the tops of naps but I’m so bloody over it now. A security guard eyed us up and and I looked him in straight in the eye back. He just looked away. But all the rest had just obediently donned their face pacifiers “like Boris says” and re-entered the sheep zone again…
A PCSO watched me going into M&S earlier (no mask, don’t wear the lanyard any more either). I did wonder whether she would ask about exemptions, but no – nothing said. Clearly even the police aren’t bothered now.
I’ve gone shopping in Sainsbury, Lidl, M&S, Primark, Superdrug, Smiths and a range of local private shops and not worn a mask once. No-one has challenged me.
You’re lucky or very fierce looking
Sainsbury flunky challenged me but answered his own question as I breezed by him.
Very noticeable in Lidl this pm I was one of only two in a 40 minute segment who did not ware a “left knee bandage” ( thanks Vernon ); that is a substantial decrease on last iteration so I guess the fear mongering is working.
oops.. “wear”
When I got on the buses yesterday maskless as usual neither of the drivers said owt but played that little recording telling us to mask up and finishes “to protect us all”. I don’t know why but that particular phrase really gets up my nose
Because its a lie.
Exactly.. and that’s why this ruse is being used.. very clever.. very devious..
Yes, I’ve had the same conversations with a couple of people today. I’m not sure they’ll ever connect the dots …
Boris Johnson is not following the script properly execute order 66
“He is accused of having given out a number of light-hearted awards amid party games, food and drink in an event that went on past midnight.”
Oh the humanity!
Well here it is Jabby Christmas/Every body’s having one/Go for your booster now/It’s only just begun
Apparently unvaccinated people are begging for the jab but are begging told it’s too late whilst they are wheeled into hospital.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-59555468
Of course they are 😉
I commented on that article earlier on another thread. Note that the headline is completely unrelated to the actual content of the article (it’s just a passing comment made – allegedly – by one of the nurses the interviewer talked to).
The MSM just has to twist nearly everything in this way now in order to push the approved propaganda.
I know I shouldn’t but I can’t help but look at the BBC news website whilst I’m having my porridge. It’s just so ridiculous it gives me a really good belly laugh.
The headline is the most influential part of any press article, sometimes rivalled by the photo, and followed by the photo caption. Next comes the first paragraph or two. Other than that, the rest has little influence.
However the article did admit that “Covid now is only a small part of the pressure on the NHS”.
Today 5915 beds are Covid related out of 124,724 total beds. Rather puts the hype into perspective.
The thing is most people ( like me on this occasion) only read the headline.
That is what they are counting on.
I can’t read that article for the pile of bullshit in it.
That meme is being spread about a lot right now.
The meaning of it is this:
“Ah, so you want a jab now do you? Well even if you get your first one tomorrow, you won’t be able to get your second one for months, and your third one until months later still. And by then you’ll be dead! Muahahaha!”
Allowing this to go through their head, the channeller of the meme feels safe and is readied for being even more obedient. Until THEY realise. And THEN it will be too late FOR THEM.
You know what? When I think about it – I’m not sorry at all now for voting Boris Johnson back in 2019 – since this insanity began in March 2020 I’ve always regretted voting Tory but now I’m beginning to think this was probably the best decision I ever made and in a strange way I’m quite relieved that we voted in an idiot for PM – because any other PM who lies as much as Johnson does but who also had the canniness to go with it (ie: Tony Blair for instance – a pathological liar but also very devious) then they would have gotten away with this entire covid scam – but Johnson is incredibly stupid and his stupidity may just be our liberation from this madness.
Ironically I feel Johnson was all but born to play the role that Starmer has found himself in. I’m not saying for a moment that a Labour government would have left us in a better position overall right now but Johnson would likely have made the ideal leader of the opposition from a sceptic/pro-freedom perspective. À la Brexit, the British public would probably have rallied behind him in this role and could have placed some genuine pressure on the government to relent the medical power grab.
All but a parallel universe alas.
More likely he would have been shouted down for being a covidiot.
The problem isn’t the politicians. the problem is the population. They’re living the dream – nothing feels better than self-righteousness.
But a lot of that is due to the heavy-duty propaganda tactics used for a lot of last year. The aim was to scare the populace shitless, and with a lot of them it worked so well that they are now terrified of living without the comfort blanket of pointless measures to “keep everyone safe”.
It worked so well with one of my friends – a previously sociable outgoing lady – that she hasn’t been out of her house for almost two years. Covid hasn’t touched her physically but the constant fear tactics and scaremongering have really messed with her head.
I agree. Saint Boris would have argued well (at least, with his usual comedy routines) against lockdown. It was so clear on “fright night” from his body language that he really didn’t want to be saying what he was saying. This was the man who said “I will eat my ID card if anyone asks me to produce it”.
You could be onto something there. 🤔
Probably a few Brexit voters feeling similarly confirmed, as we watch the Germans and others rapidly reverting to type. Such a shame we aren’t in the enlightened, tolerant and noble EU with our fellow freedom-loving volke any more.

I shudder to think what lockdown would have been like under Tony Bliar. He would have revelled in the “briefings”. I bet he regrets that lockdown hadn’t been “invented” in his time: he would have locked us down for his Iraq war, to “keep us safe”, or he would have handed massive power to terrorists by locking down every time a terrorist made a threat. Maybe Saint Boris’s blustering has saved us from something, but this is why we must be extremely careful about rejoicing when he is inevitably replaced.
Incidentally, not many people will remember that Tony Bliar said “I want every household to have the internet by (insert date)”. It has often been commented on that the scale of fearmongering we have seen, and indeed lockdown itself would not have been possible even a few years ago. Now we know why he wanted it. He was instrumental in the dastardly regime we have now.
If only Blair had just taken up painting.
…but Johnson is incredibly stupid and his stupidity may just be our liberation from this madness.
Let’s hope that is so. It could be argued though, that Johnson’s buffoonery acts as a distraction from the truly repressive policies that he has presided over during the last two years.

Cycled past my local covid vaccination center today as i do most days – there are usually a few people there with masks on waiting there turn to be jabbed – not today though … there was an ambulance outside.
An acquaintance has put off a visit to collect some stuff I’m disposing of from the garden. His mother (71) was rushed to A&E. She’s now out of danger after two days. He says that without him knowing the warning signs and dialling 999 it could have been too late. He’s not vacd. and agrees it’s worse than the disease … thinks his mother was deceived into getting it.
Oh dear not an adverse event!
An extremely rare adverse event

Was in a book store today and overheard the assistant tell a customer that she had her booster that morning and now she felt absolutely awful. She looked awful. She looked grey.
I thought Johnson would come to regret pushing Cummings under the bus at Carrie’s behest, shame I don’t care about either of them. I’ve never watched Game of Thrones but this is pretty much what I imagine it’s like
Hopefully it is, as everyone dies.
The problem is, they’re just not well-developed characters, it’s all too 2-dimensional
re: photos, and the potential destruction of one’s “image”….
In January 2017, while still President, Barack Obama was overheard quipping that if people back in 2008 had known of what he’d done as a younger man, he’d have never made it to the White House.
It had everything to do with his two years at Columbia University.
http://www.zombietime.com/obama_and_the_weather_underground/
But news of that had been aggressively suppressed during the 2007/2008 campaign by a covert organization known as “JournoList”.
(It had zero to do with the myth of him being born in Kenya, which had been started by Hillary’s campaign manager, based on a goosed-up bio put online by the publisher of Obama’s first book.)
The danger for Boris is that the press won’t help him in this one.
It’ll be interesting to see if Boris screams and whines like The Donald that he’s been victimized.
Johnson probably can’t wait to go
I agree. I think he has discovered its not quite as exciting as he thought it would be and that he has to do some work and not offload all of it onto his minions. He really is a lazy so and so.
yes, lazy and not a ‘details’ person
According to Cummings he early on said it was boring and exhausting and could he not sit in Chequers and write his big book about Shakespeare that he needs to write because he can’t survive on £150,000 pa
No way his wife will let him.
If cash is a problem, surely he can just go off on lecture tours like the others? People apparently pay large sums of money to hear Theresa May speak (FFS)
Not cash. The green agenda is what’s at stake, and jobs for all her friends enforcing it. Can’t do that without her husband in Number Ten.
To be fair, she throws in a bit of dancing as well…and coughing…it’s become a much sought-after comedy routine
Maybe she does some hunchback dancing on the side?

You give yourself up with “the Donald” quip.
Back under your bridge Demoprog.
Cute. You’ve missed it, entirely. I’m a lifelong Republican, a social/behavioral conservative, and also an amateur historian (by university degree and subsequent avocation.) I began hearing of his father (and the church the family went to) back in the Sixties. I heard of Donald all through the Eighties and Ninties – thru the 2000 Presidential campaigns. My filing away of knowledge about Donald essentially stopped after the opening of his TV show. IMHO, everything said about him past 2015 has been partisan BS. I was aware of Andrew Breitbart saying, he wasn’t conservative in any way, that he was merely a celebrity, putting on an act. I knew the evaluation was correct the instant I heard it, because I already knew about his book having been ghost-written, about it being seriously frothed-up, and about his fortune having come entirely from his father. I also knew what Fred Trump Sr. had done to Fred Jr. The Donald did some good things while he was in the White House, but he was in no way ‘presidential’. He simply doesn’t pack the gear, and never has. It says a great deal that part of America cheerily elected a draft dodger to the Oval… Read more »
Neither was Teddy Roosevelt. Or Abraham Lincoln. Or General Washington. This ‘he doesn’t act Presidential’ talking point is a tired one oft repeated by liberal media (who would have loved him if he was on their side) and so-called ‘principled conservatives’, and it’s completely meaningless.
The American people don’t want a stuffed shirt to lead them.
Vietnam was a mistake (one that America has yet to learn from as seen by the palaver in Afghanistan) and you’d be hard pressed to find a politician that actually fought in it. Either they outright dodged, like Clinton, or they got their rich daddies to put them on Reserve like Dubya.
The small portion who actually do have the moral high ground in this regard, like John McCain, just so not coincidentally happen to be part of the ‘more wars for oil contingent’.
Just pause and think for a moment. Over the last two years we have had unlawful/draconian decree after unlawful/draconian decree. Lockdowns. Mask mandates. Separation of loved ones and friends. ‘Social distancing’. Company closures… Doctors surgeries have effectively closed. Hospitals became single-issue pseudo medical establishments. People have needlessly died at home, in nursing/care homes, from suicide, from medical neglect. The elderly/sick were forbidden from seeing their families/loved ones and vice versa. People have lost their livelihoods… We could go on.
Throughout all of this, aside from the odd story here and there, the old media outlets have barely raised a collective eyebrow. Yet this story vexes them. This is what rouses them from their self-induced coma.
Yes, the story is bad, but it is one story in a long line of similar stories where the parasite class has contradicted the very rules they sanctioned. This ‘outrage’ from the old media outlets is utterly contrived.
So, what is it that really stirs them here?
hypocrisy and the chance to take the moral high ground, nothing special
They’ve had an abundance of opportunities to (albeit inconsistently) ‘take the high ground’, so why go after the Johnson creature now?
May the MSM rot in Hell.
Especially the BBC.
I think it’s a smoke screen. Johnson can’t deliver what his masters have requested next but someone has stepped up behind the scenes who is happy to deliver our collective head on a plate
who?
I really do not care. My anger is and has always been that there were ‘rules’ in the first place. The fact they had parties just helps – albeit mildly – our case that the rules are totally unnecessary.
You’d think it helps because if they aren’t allowed to sidestep the rules they make, they may be more reluctant to make those rules.
That’s the possible upside of the outrage.
erm, haven’t you noticed what they are doing at the moment?
Imposing restrictions like there is no tomorrow.
They will ALWAYS make more rules – and they will never have any intention of complying with them – even in public, pace the PM’s refusal to wear a face mask in a hospital on more than one occasion.
I don’t think you can correlate “parties” with “rules” – we all know there is NO real world evidence that lockdowns work because, just like masks, they are “leaky”. If “lockdown” = 100% quarantine, that might have had AN effect but the consequences of that may equally have led to a very lethal variant from the quarantined population – and from all I have read that is THE nightmare scenario. The Great Barrington Declaration was/is right all along – protect the vulnerable, but let the virus rip with early treatment regimes for those infected ….just like “flu. Surely, the fact that this variant has arrived from a lower jabbed population cohort is “A Good Thing” – far more transmissable , but getting weaker by the day; I fervently hope this is proved to be the case, as posited by Dr MY and others many months ago. “Parties” involving the “rule makers” are indicative of a “Do As I Say And Not As I AM Found Out Doing” – after all, the CSO, CMO and a one time Health Secretary have all publicly stated, effectively, “Masks do not work” so if you take that at its face value ( sorry ,… Read more »
Visited quite a few shops today – on the streets I would say 99% are not wearing masks – in the shops I would say 50/50 in the high-end shops (M&S, Waterstones etc) – but practically no mask wearing at all in the low end shops (ie Savers, Superdrug, H&M etc) – on the whole a lot less mask wearing than there was when the mask mandate first came into affect which is encouraging – i didn’t wear my exemption card at all today and no one seemed remotely bothered by my maskless presence – also most of the shop staff are maskless too – the odd one or two who were wearing one had it under their chin like a chin strap.
I don’t know whether this is the result of ‘Partygate’ and people finally wising up to this hoax but as i say i was encouraged to see the lack of mask wearing in most places where normally almost everyone would be masked.
But thats just my small patch in the South East.
Btw : Marks and Sparks and Waterstones are high-end where I live.
I was on the Kingsway in Dundee at 4 o’clock today. About 12 people are at the side of this motorway with large, laminated signs clearly lit up. Boris lied to us, Say no to vaccine passports, what is the death rate up 17.5%, why are stillbirths up, media is the virus etc – about 12 professionally produced placards. I was astonished and delighted. The cracks are getting larger
Brilliant – hat’s off to them
The trouble is most people are angry because of the “risk” they took when everyone else was being “safe”.
The true story is that they partied because they knew there was no risk and that their mitigation rules were bollocks. That should be the takeaway.
I suspect they partied because they thought they were the ruling elite and therefore above the rules, which only applied to the ‘little people’
That too – but my point is implicit in that
They were partying away whilst elderly people in ‘care homes’ were crying because they couldn’t see their children, and eventually died in abject misery in sheets that hadn’t been changed for a month. And Allegra just laughs at it all – what a hoot!
They will if they put them out. Look at this:
UK Column news today pointing out party was on 18th Dec, and restrictions were announced the day after on 19th, so why not say this? Also the studio room Allegra is filmed in was revamped at the beginning of 2021. The room was reopened on 15th March 2021, so how come she’s spilling the beans in the revamped room back in December 2020, before the revamp had been done?

FFS why can’t the fucking sheep put two and two together.
Why were these cretins having a party, and unmasked ffs – despite the oh so deadly covid raging across mankind and killing everybody.
Maybe they know more than they’re letting on.
Clue – it isn’t that deadly you morons.
I despair.
But I will hold the Line.
Lol what you’ve written here sounds like my “Inner Dialogue” a lot of the time !
Mine too – if you add a few swear words!
Loads of examples like that and still it doesnt click
I’ve been saying this since the first “expert” (Ferguson?) was caught with his pants down, breaking lockdown rules to go and see his lover on the other side of town. yet still the don the mask, and line up for thir jabs.
If I was any good at graphics I would design a poster with something like “Careless Rules Cost Lives” – with respectful acknowledgements to Fougasse.
Anyone care to take that on???
“Lock ’em down hard-but not me” Cummings has just gone up a few points in my Hypocrisy Best of Year lists.
With this sort of cockroach in the “Corridors of Power”, it’s not surprising that his superbreeder fellow inmate is how he is.
just think, if Gollum replaces Johnson we could have Dom back!
Yes: it is certainly NOT true that my enemy’s enemy is my friend!
Is there meant to be a police officer on the door at Downing Street? If so then that officer should also be sacked!

A simple way to clear this up would be for the Met Police to check Diplomatic Protection briefing logs for the evening in question re functions being held and interview the Officers on duty to ascertain what they saw heard concluded.
Cressida Dick was herself on Westminster Bridge clapping for the NHS without a face mask – anyone remember? She should arrest herself for spreading The Virus.

“The former Government adviser also said that most of the public’s attention should be focused on a party …”
… as opposed to Iran being on the brink of developing nuclear weapons.
Nuclear weapons are about the only thing that can protect Iran from becoming the next Syria or Afghanistan.
Careful there.
Much more of this thing called truth and you will be on the terrorist list thingy.
I don’t much care about the Iranian regime, but it inevitably results in innocent civilians dead, millions of refugees & more global terrorism, so really my concern is the consequences of western violence.
That said, i’m sure when Israel bombs Iran’s nuclear facilities it will leave a huge radioactive no go zone anyway, so Iran looks fucked either way.
Iran has been “on the brink of developing nuclear weapons” for half a century:
Iran’s Ever Imminent Nukes: A History of Hysteria
That’s as true today as it was when it was written 11 years ago.
In reality, Pat Buchanan’s analysis is probably correct:
“Why does Iran not already have the bomb?
The answer seems a simple one. While the Iranians have the knowledge, capacity and experience to build a bomb, they have, like Japan, Brazil and South Korea, elected to forgo the option, as the risks inherent in an Iranian bomb are greater than any probable rewards.
Not only has the ayatollah declared atomic weapons immoral, but it is difficult to see what Iran would gain from testing a nuclear weapon.
Tehran’s great foe, Israel, has an arsenal of nuclear weapons with the ability to deliver them by air, submarine-based cruise missile or ballistic missile. And a nuclear Iran would soon lead to a nuclear-armed Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Egypt, Sunni nations all. How would that benefit Tehran?”

I don’t understand why any ones making a fuss over this, it won’t change anything & it won’t be the end of Johnson.
In fact, for anyone who opposes lockdowns, vaccines or any corona mitigation measures, keep banging on about it just legitimizes the official narrative.
If you’re still surprised at politicians & civil servant’s hypocrisy, & contempt for the rest of us, where have you been all your life?
Let say for a second the scandal forces Johnson out, what do you think will replace him? The liberal on the left? Or the liberal on the right? Maybe the centrist liberal?
I sort of agree, but at the same time I think this could be the beginning of the end for Johnson. Plenty of heads have rolled because they didn’t obey the nonsense regulations of the moment, why not the PM’s? But as you say, what kind of creature would replace him? For a fleeting moment I thought Sunak might be a better bet, at least (so I thought) he doesn’t want the economy to plunge over a cliff of his own making, but now I’m not so sure…these toerags will be sitting pretty come what may, they are already millionaires.
Maybe.
But would you want that cold eyed bastard Gove.
The best argument for abortion I’ve ever heard.
worst case scenario
No that is Hunt. With the CCP agent wife.
I’d forgotten he existed
No one who has worked in the NHS for a decade or more hasn’t.
I suspect this is just another psychological tactic to release steam from the anger at future restrictions. We are being played like a fiddle.
It’s amazing Johnson has stayed this long, he’s never come across as the kind of person with the stamina needed to fight any battle to the end.
If Johnson goes, it’s because he wants out!
Since Sunak signed us up to the CBDCs and the NWO with all the other globalists banksters I would prefer he was kicked out the window straight into the Thames
I think you are missing the key consequence of all of this. Yes, all of us know and have known for a very long time, about the hypocrisy and contempt for plebs, BUT plenty of plebs are being woken up by the continuing drip-feed from all these scandalous happenings.
Have to say I don’t have much faith of the unwashed masses rising up in rebellion, most of them can’t even lift their heads for a few minutes to look away from their phones.
Throw your smartphone away!
It needs to be someone who’s good at making cock-ups.
The political class has absolutely no shortage of suitable candidates…

They’re enjoying their Downing Street bubble, probably laughing about the next best mandate and watching the sheep follow it
The stupidity of this coverage is emblematic of the crass stupidity of the general public on NPIs. Outrage at the breaking of rules, the one rule for “them” and another for “us”. “Them” simply understand that the restrictions and lockdowns are simply to placate “us” and are for drama and have zero impact on the course of the virus and if “us” actually understood that “us” would ignore the rules as well. Instead of a eureka moment we get hand wringing and calls for heads to roll. The “us” who love and crave these controls simply don’t have a working brain cell. To be fair “them” did the brainwashing in the first place and just thought WTF, no point trying to undo that now so we’ll just crack on and give “us” what we want.
The tunes they danced too.
Thanks Encierro – gave me a laugh today!!
This is all part of a psyop to nudge people further towards embracing the jabs and restrictions through indignant virtuism (if there is such a word) by publicly shaming the rule breakers, while at the same time distracting the hapless population from the next sinister governmental step towards totalitarianism. The timing of this “leak” is no accident.

Dr. Peter McCullough is an academic internist, cardiologist, and a trained epidemiologist located in Dallas, Texas. He speaks with Bret regarding what a wise response to Covid would look like. Bookmarked discussion. Towards the end McCullough discusses the withdrawal of his cardiology paper and the resultant lawsuit against Elsevier.
McCullough heroic as usual
He mentions that the background rate for myocarditis in under fifties in the US is 650 annually.
The VAERS data is showing 11 thousand cases, massively over background rate.
Honestly, this whole “covid party blackmail” affair reminds me of the mode of operation of Jeffrey Epstein.
As for pictures emerging, anyone who believes any picture or video “evidence” in 2021 is a complete moron unaware of the wonders of technology.
