In December last year, Kay Burley was suspended by Sky for 6 months for breaking tier 2 regulations after celebrating her 60th birthday. Remember that?

Guido broke that story. Seems to be very quiet on the Johnson breach. Maybe just preparing their copy.
And Beth Rigby

And in both cases these were Tier 2 rules. Johnson party held during Tier 3

Short thread on this video:

Johnson says food and drink 'export market is growing all the time' in fact according to the Grocer, they were down '4.5% to £9.2bn in the first half of 2021 compared to 2020, and down more than 17% from the first half of 2019.' So not true.
2: Johnson says the 'Americans are lifting their ban after decades on British beef and lamb.' That ban had nothing whatsoever to do with membership of the EU and was a result of BSE aka mad cow disease. As it is lamb exports to the US generally are negligible. They don't eat it.
3: Government's own figures put the value of UK lamb exports to the USA at £35 million. Which is - well nothing.

Literally the day before the party at Downing Street on December 17th, police broke up a party in Csdogan Square. 30 people in attendance and the organiser left facing a £10,000 fine.

A Met PC said: “I am astounded that people are putting themselves, their families and their friends at risk.

“This is a critical time. Our infection rate is on the rise and we all need to pull together to drive down the rate of infection and protect our families and the NHS.”
If anyone knows who that party host was I'd love to hear from them

To Quentin Letts and others who think that the desperate human beings crossing the Channel are coming here for benefits, a reminder.

Asylum seekers in the UK receive on average just £5.66 - a day.
For those who think "they all want to come here because we are a soft touch" - a reminder.

The UK - disgracefully - is home to just 1% of the estimated 26.4 million refugees, forcibly displaced by war and other events across the globe.
And finally for those who think France takes fewer refugees than us and that they all pass through there to come here.... you're wrong. France takes considerably more than we do as does Germany

Lee Anderson Tory MP for Ashfield Nottinghamshire wants to send asylum seekers to The Falklands
“The only way we will put these people off is by giving them the message that if you come here you are going to be sent 8,000 miles away."

Because obviously

Apart from anything else reprehensible about this, using the Falkland Islands as a glorified holding pen says a lot about this MPs contempt... for the Falklands
What do you think @falklands_utd ?

On the basis of what I've seen of his #bbcqt performance last night, it seems that Jordan Peterson and his acolytes have mistaken 'made up words' for intellect.
I recall that our old friend Chloe Westley was a major fan.
