He didn’t admit to attending a party though. He admitted to going into the garden thinking it was a ‘work event’ and going back inside after 25 minutes.
Edit: comments seem to imply that I was defending Johnson, when I was merely quoting him to clarify that he never actually acknowledged knowingly attending a party, thus his apology is meaningless
Does he think we are stupid? He didn’t realise it was a party? Absolutely pathetic.
Oh well everything is right with the world and good old Boris can get back to doing a stellar job of running the country now this nonsense has been put behind us. /s for the hard of thinking.
What a cowardly ‘apology’
He’s digging in and going nowhere – the man doesn’t give a fuck
Keeps saying to wait for the enquiry – he’s a cunt
He did not apologise, he is repeatedly saying that he is sorry people saw it that way and that he believes it was within the rules.
Radio 2 went live to the house of commons for PM question time.
Worries me that he keeps saying we should wait for the result of the inquiry as if he’s been briefed that he’s going to get away with it.
What a farce. Any other job in any normal industry and he would have been sacked.
What we’re dealing with here is a total lack of respect for the law.
man even after I still don’t think the conservative party has the balls to make him resign
Got an invite to a party. Attended party.
Didn’t know it was a party.
This guy. He is beyond contempt.
Either a business meeting at Downing Street always looks like a piss up – plausible….
Or the parties at Downing Street are so shit they look like business meetings – also plausible….
Put your pitch forks down everyone. Turns out Boris doesn’t know what a party is
Sack every piece of shit who attended and then resign, you floppy haired waste of space.
Also, he saw all that booze and thought it was a work meeting? What does that say about how they do business day to day?
It’s odd that an enquiry would be needed when the person requesting the enquiry has absolute knowledge of the wrong doing committed.
Hmm… could it be a case of having an enquiry and hoping by the time there are results that no one gives a sh*t by then, by any chance?
I see we are at the “I did it, but I didn’t mean it” part of lying out of your lying scruffy face.
He is marching through the narcissists prayer like a champ.
Dare I ask when the rioting starts?
Oh wait, we’re in the UK. Any other country in Europe and people would be on the streets by tonight.
Absolutely furious. At the time me and my family were worried about driving 10 minutes for a country walk. ‘It’s ok when we do it!’
‘Apologises’ ? He fucking doubled down, the rat fuck.
Okay, let’s break this down.
“I want to apologise,” Mr Johnson said, adding that he “must take responsibility” for events that took place.
Get fucked.
The prime minister admitted he “went into that garden just after 6pm on 20 May 2020 to thank groups of staff” before going back into his office “25 minutes later”.
Bullshit.
“I believed implicitly that this was a work event,” he told the Commons.
Then you’re fucking stupider than you look, you blonde haired prick.
Keir: “Why does the prime minister still think that the rules don’t apply to him?”
Labour still being the voice of reason here.
Anyone else who didn’t vote Tory at the last election feel vindicated now?

What I learned from this statement.
1. Boris is too incompetent to know if an event is a work event or not.
2. Clapping rewards the NHS but not Spads and Party Faithful.
3. That the Tories all wear masks performatively for ‘apologies’.
4. That Boris wants to apologise and fails – *upwards* – to do so.
5. That the enquiry remains a way to pretend you are innocent.
6. That the Tory Party are all as bad as each other.
Very good, all forgiven, CON +25 next week’s polling.
I turned up for 25 mins, got pissed with everyone else, didn’t realise it was a party, could happen to anyone… – Boris fucking Johnson, probably.
Get to fuck. Out out out. This is absolutely a resignation matter.
So it’s a normal thing for them to bring booze to their own work meetings?!
I guess lets just say no more about it then and move on.
The cunt needs to resign.
He’s gone. He’s now being kept in as a scapegoat for the rest of the pandemics duration and then the Tories will get rid of him. They aren’t going to sacrifice the next election for Boris
Two weeks after this I was waiting for over an hour in a hospital car park while my pregnant wife was in labour on the assessment ward. I was allowed to join her in the birthing suite and could stay for a couple of hours after the birth before being kicked out.
I know many people have much worse stories than this but the point is that we all sacrificed things for the greater good while these fuckwits were living it up getting pissed and laughing at us plebs.
Remember. He didn’t apologise because he regrets having done it, he apologised because he got caught.
UK friends: is it okay to call him a “bellend” now? Asking on behalf of a US resident amused by UK insults
He’ll say anything, words don’t mean a thing to him
[removed]
RESIGN you fat bumbling mumbling corrupt low life piece of dog shite.
Boris has done more to make Labour electable than anything Labour has done
Boris Johnson held a party while he made sure people died alone. What kind of cold heartless person does that?
Given how this is being played out as death by a thousand cuts, I’m waiting for someone to now leak the video clip of him dancing around the garden at 11pm with a bottle of champagne in each hand.
> “I believed implicitly that this was a work event.”
And that, ladies and gentlemen, is the defense that the entirety of the UK population needs to remember should there be any further restrictions.
Everyone wants BoJo to resign but what people don’t realise is whoever replaces him is probably not going to be any better.
It’s still the Tory government.
I was having cancer treatment in May 2020.
Every day I had to go into hospital alone and spend 8 hours having treatment.
I did it alone because I had to, because the government told me too.
I did it to protect other people in the hospital.
I was scared, alone and felt like absolute shit.

Can we not let Murdoch’s Sky corp get the ad revenue from this story, please downvote this one, there’s a BBC one here on the way up – https://www.reddit.com/r/unitedkingdom/comments/s24wt2/boris_johnson_was_at_lockdown_drinks_party_for_25/
Stick that apology right up your arse Johnson.

They held parties. Then, they lied about it.
