Ahh ok so he’s not a criminal, he’s just dumb as shit.
Carry on then!
He’s an utter cretin. Sat there for 20 minutes being all sad faced and saying sorry.
Now he’s back on the angry shouting and the mask has slipped already to being all about his massive ego. Couldn’t even last half an hour of pretending to care that people are angry at him.

Go drive through a red light with your eyes closed. Try the “I didnt know I was breaking the law” line. See if ignorance is a defense for anyone else
So he’s either a liar or he’s too Incompetent to be trusted to run a bath seen as he made the fucking rules.
> MPs also groaned as he bizarrely claimed being fined for a criminal offence would make him a more fervent enemy of warmonger Vladimir Putin.
>
> The PM said that due to public anger, “I feel an even greater sense of obligation to deliver on the priorities of the British people – and to respond in the best traditions of our country to Putin’s barbaric onslaught against Ukraine.”
Boris sees a £50 fine charge leave his debit card… *’Good God! I must stop Putin’*
“He was blindsided by confectionery”
“He was assaulted with celebratory slices”
“It was a veritable Thermopylae of Pudding”
“Nothing short of a Blitzkrieg of baked goods”
You know they described him, without a shred of irony, as having “crossed the Rubicon” by becoming the first prime minister to be charged for a crime under a law *he wrote, enacted and went on TV every night to express the importance thereof*.
It’s like someone showed them episodes of Brass Eye one night after the pub and because they were a bit pissed they took it 100% seriously, and decided to dedicate their lives to ensuring the line between satire and reality was forever blurred, plunging us into the dystopian nightmare we all knew our lives would become.
So, these people are telling us that both breaking the law – you know, the law with the TV advert with the dying woman who literally says “do not break the rules otherwise you might actually kill me”; yeah, that one – is really really serious – but actually no it’s not, at all, if you’re Boris or one of his chums, it’s actually fine.
So you know all those people who spoke to their loved ones for the last time on a Zoom call – something most of us had never done before January 2021 which has all the sentimentality of queuing for a festival toilet – while they lie literally dying in hospital, scared and alone, surrounded by a response team from a literal disaster movie for comfort, gasping for air – yes, those people?
Mugs. Total mugs, they should have just done whatever-the-fuck. Not like the rules matter, is it? Might as well have a fucking piss-up.
It’s a joke. It’s all a joke, and a game. It’s the only explanation. It’s a fucking farce and to be honest, if I have to take another minute of it, I feel like I’m gonna lose my fucking mind.
It felt really obvious to me that the Tory MPs had all been handed very carefully prepared questions so Johnson could act all humble and remorseful in preparation for the public’s response.
Normally they’re all “does the PM agree the public want to move on / focus on X” etc. but this time it was more .. aggressive in order to let the PM try and act like he cares he broke the law and is the first PM in history to be convicted by the police as a criminal.
It was all over the news.
Students were being fined and suspended immediately for parties. People were being questioned by the police for taking a takeaway coffee to meet a friend for a “daily exercise” walk because it was seen as too social. Old folks were getting told off for stopping on park benches. This wasn’t some esoteric hidden rule, it was one of the biggest public debates at the time. Some thought the rules were too strict some too loose but it was clear that what he turned out to be doing was much beyond where it was accepted that the rules were.
Edit: At the time he was going live on telly every week to tell us all how important it was that we followed the rules. Rules that weren’t just something put in place by lengthy parliamentary process, but actually for the most part directly by his cabinet by executive order. The rules were literally in his name. If he didn’t know the rules, then he’s been utterly negligent in using his executive powers granted to him by parliament. I’d actually argue that this is possibly worse than lying to parliament. And while there may not be as much convention around it as lying, should be a resignation matter.
Only this law breaking lying dumb as shit serial adulterer can lead this country in this time of crisis.
The Tory Party
>Brazen PM sorry for Partygate – but again insists he didn’t know he broke rules
Try that next time you get points on your licence and a fine for speeding.
Terribly sorry for doing 40 in a 30 zone, this means I lose my licence and my job. Can we just forget about it and move on?
Do you think they will let you off?
You’re innocent, Boris. Keep your chin up. You and Princess Carrie have nothing to apologise for. Just stop red Starmer and show the miserable lefties on here who is boss xx
Well he should not have made the rules so complicated that he, himself, could not understand them.
​
But, of course, he is just plain lying. The self-serving, fuckwitted moron.
It’s just bullshit again. He claims he was just having a little get together “before a meeting on covid”, but we know at that gathering he drank alcohol. Is he saying he then attended that meeting while drunk?
Why doesn’t someone challenge about the Dyson text he promised to release last year?
He looks like someone pissed all over a beach ball and rolled it through a barber shop.
If only there were some hard evidence to the contrary, like daily videos of him repeating the rules, broadcast across the entire country.
our democracy is a sham and we’re a laughing stock
What an utter arsehole and complete shower of shite.
Pm lies about lying when he lied in the incident when he lied to people about the time he lied about telling lies when he was lying.
Let’s look at this a different way. Let’s say this is true. Does that make it ok in any shape or form when you still attempted to punish other people for it who didn’t know they had broke your ever-changing rules.
How is this guy still in power? I know that if it isn’t this government it will be the next government that screws us all over but him and his friends in particular, need to go.
saying i offer an unreserved apology then using the people of Ukraine as a meatshield & telling the electorate to move on is not an apology.
A Prime Minister is meant to know the rules. Boris knows he’s invincible so will never step down willingly.
Oh well if I knew that was a reason I would’ve just not read the news and had a party then too! Ffs.
That’s the whole point. The person in charge of a country should known when he/she is breaking the law or not. What a muppet
So the my question is “what action are you apologising for then?” Or is he saying “sorry you feel I broke the rules”
