As headlines swirl, let's take a step back:
1) Evidence of #DowningStreetParties has been sitting on many people's desks & consciences since early 2020 and only became known due to infighting in Tory Party. Nothing to do with the country, shame or awareness of the hypocrisy.
1/5

2) Evidence is being gathered by #SueGray a civil servant who'll report to #Boris - he'll then be judge & jury on what happens next including deciding if her recommendations are published.
A report with no legal standing.
A further pointless waste of taxpayers' money.
#PMQs
2/5

3) #metpolice hide behind the 4 Es they say they operate under during #COVID19 - engage, explain, encourage observation of the law, before enforcement. I'd add a 5th EVADING!
No investigating of historic rule-breaking but they must've witnessed/seen the parties on CCTV etc
3/5

4) This political panto must end. It's polluting all politics & further damaging public trust - see @VoteTrueAndFair polling trueandfairparty.uk/wp-content/upl…
Politicians must get back to addressing effects of #inflation, now outstripping wages, cost-of-living crisis, NHS backlog etc
4/5

I'm no fan of #BorisJohnson but he's the PM. The buck stops with him and as Leader he must do what's best for his Office & our country's reputation.
Truth is they were putting wine into fridges whilst people were putting loved ones in coffins. Disgusting!
5/5
