Now as #Partygate drags on with Johnson out of the equation #BackBoris will latch on to every story and magnify it.
Sunak's role and complicity in #Partygate will be exposed by stories and inaction or by the Covid Inquiry

It is obvious from recent disclosures
- no rules in Downing St where he lived and worked
- Mail story yesterday when he walked past a garden gathering in March 2021
- the desperation to hide the diaries and Whatsapp messages from the Inquiry
SUNAK was fully aware and complicit

The basic conclusion of the Privilege Committee investigation is that they find Boris Johnson intentionally misled the house and, in so doing, is found in contempt of the house
Their initial ‘warning’ to BJ was that they were going to recommend a sanction of suspension that would be long enough to cause a recall petition in his constituency
Events then moved very quickly they increased their recommendations to 90 days&removal of his parliamentary pass

I've sat on this since seven o block this morning picking up my phone putting it down, talking to people not talking to people, I come back to the same thing, this country is governed by lawbreakers who have no regard for anyone but themselves, when I saw that video this
Morning I felt physically sick thinking about the times all those lonely families, older people, the vulnerable,Christmas cancelled at a moments notice, imagining so many in this country fraught with worry, stress and all the fucking time they were partying the time away, every
Single person in the @Conservatives knew , we all know office gossip, we know how it works, we're not fuckng dumb, they all knew and they didn't care , any MP who votes against the vote in parliament tomorrow is a disgraceful selfish human being, you have a chance to say sorry
🧵 A note on complex grief and that partygate video:
Complex or complicated grief is characterised as being in an ongoing, heightened state of mourning that prevents you from healing.
A crippling sense of loss or other severe & unpleasant emotions endure & prevent recovery.

A crippling sense of loss or other severe & unpleasant emotions endure & prevent recovery.
A person’s ability to function normally can be severely impaired, and for many months or years.
You may feel numb, angry, bitter, unable to focus on anything but the death of your loved one. You may suffer from hopelessness, depression or feel that life is not worth living.
You may feel numb, angry, bitter, unable to focus on anything but the death of your loved one. You may suffer from hopelessness, depression or feel that life is not worth living.
There are many causes of complex grief such as how the person died (suddenly, traumatically), prior family conflicts or when the person who died was a child.
One key factor can be the thought that the death was avoidable, that it could have been prevented.

I’ve read all 106 pages of the #PrivilegesCommittee Report and looked up extracts they’ve referred to, at source in Hansard etc., to get context. Their findings hinge on 4 occasions where they say Boris deliberately mislead HoC. To get to this conclusion they spend 55 pages…1/
..going over all the events relating to #Partygate to say, in essence, that Boris must have known he was deliberately misleading (‘lying’ in common parlance) HoC on those 4 occasions. I prefer to look directly at detail of those 4 occasions and consider whether their case.. 2/
..is proven. In doing so, it seems to me that Boris rightly gave specific answers to the specific questions he was asked in HoC - there was no obligation for him to do anything else, however much the C’ttee seems to think he should have done. Taking them in turn….3/

The reports highlight Sunaks lying / interference
- Nov 2022 - Holac wrote asking for a meeting reference Johnson honours list.
- there were many briefings identifying Dorries, Sharma, Adams and Jack as being on the list from the very beginning

His name is pushed into our faces, knowing he lied, then lied, then lied some more , the privileges committee have put on paper what we've known all along , I wish he would just bugger off and leave us in peace.

Hey @Guto_Harri…
I’ve just listened to your interview w/ @TheNewsAgents & strongly reject your assertion that “some ppl are addicted to #Partygate”.
In fact hearing you defend the actions, inactions & RELENTLESS LIES of #BorisJohnson during his premiership is sickening.

I can only assume that you are able to block out the avoidable harm & visceral pain felt by millions of ppl in the UK, since Mar 2020, which could have been lessened by us having a decent, honest, compassionate PM who wasn’t only interested in himself & furthering his career?

Tories were 8 - 10 points ahead in mid 2020 when @RishiSunak leaked photos to ITV
He had former ITV worker (and his best man’s wife) @AllegraStratton ‘slip up’ on camera
He even hired ITV #partygate reporter @amberdebotton as his communications Director

@RishiSunak committed this coup with the support of @georgesoros through @OpenSociety and their sock puppet organisations like the @resfoundation @BestForBritain @BylineTimes and @euromove and a series of paid talking heads like @Femi_Sorry
They were desperate to stop Brexit.

@RishiSunak paid for their temporary support with the leadership of @OBR_UK given to the former @resfoundation man @rjdhughes
He hired more resolution foundation people and that organisation is effectively under their control.

Today #partygate Johnson faces a cross party privileges committee of MPs. Let’s recall what #Colchester MP Will Quince, the Health Minister, had to say during this national scandal. Here he is the notorious #BorisJohnson apologist supporting Johnson in April 2022. 1/4
Here is #Colchester Quince, the notorious Johnson apologist, backing Johnson on 6 June 2022. 2/4

The limelight, honour, honesty integrity are nowhere to be seen in this fucking clown,

- Johnson guilty verdict likely
- Local elections May 4th
- Increasing splits in the Tories
Take all of that together - especially Reform aiming to wipe the Tories out and you have a situation where some who think it likely to lose their seats could defect

If they think all is lost, that Brexit is not as they wished, Budget has not worked in their favour, Johnson is facing suspension and there is wipeout on ay 4th it is feasible a number will choose to jump ship.

@BorisJohnson is a serial liar, sacked for lying from several jobs including as Prime Minister, £220,000 we have paid to defend the indefensible, he was fined for one party when he attended lots.
If he gets away with this then we have to accept MP'S

Did #SueGray gather the evidence and report the facts of gatherings in Downing Street or did she set the narrative and set the wheels in motion to oust a democratically elected PM? 🧵👇
Was she motivated by her politics or did she simply report the facts?

There were parties - no one is denying that but was her first report prejudicial and was it even necessary?
Imo there are two main aspects of her first report that I find troubling
