O/T:- ⚠️Impressed with the leadership [The UK Party Politics Thread]

[forwardmagpie]

So let's talk facts. The facts are that both events were the subject of a police investigation, Starmer was cleared, but Boris, Carrie and Rishi were issued with fixed-penalty notices for breaking the rules. Those are indisputable FACTS, unless your head is buried very deeply in the sand.

Next thing you'll be claiming that GB News is balanced and fair!

Asking for a friend but is the Durham PCC a Labour Party member?

Because the Police aren't the slightest bit bias or capable of sticking to the law themselves

I'm sure that's true about some of them, but that's a separate issue. Are you seriously denying that the Covid rules were repeatedly and deliberately broken inside 10 Downing Street? And denying that Boris knowingly lied to parliament by insisting they were followed at all times?

If you are, give shout to Magpies1959. His head might be buried in the bit of sand near you.

I find that very hard to believe.

You really have a friend?

Are you saying we are alike ?

We know how impartial the police are, when arresting Tommy Robinson, and pepper spraying him, for doing fcuk all, it only took about 20 of them, that's quite an expensive arrest, when they all have fill the mountains of paperwork together, back at the station, to make sure their lies add up.
EP you would know all about blinkers, being a horse racing fan, but just occasionally, it would be nice if you took them off once in a while.

Irony or what? You remind me of how a group of Forest fans viewed the Hillsborough tragedy. Some of them still say "we saw a load of drunk Liverpool fans on the way to the game, so we know what really happened". Despite the very lengthy Taylor report which stated 'Taylor concluded firmly that police mismanagement of the crowd had caused the disaster, those Forest fans won't believe a word of it. They know better, because they "know what really happened". Just like you, they bury their head in the sand and ignore the welter of evidence that disagrees.

And when you cite Tommy Robinson as an innocent victim, you do my job for me.

I think we are on a lot of things, but not this one.

I'm not but what I am saying is Starmer should also have been fined for a clear breach of the rules but because he didn't set the rules the Police were not interested when it was clear to see he had. The Police tend to turn a blind eye when it suits, funny that.

I know the police aren't exactly consistent, but they saw it as a work event like they did for many of the events they investigated that happened at Number 10 and took no further action. I think refreshments at a long work event are understandable, but not when alcohol is involved.
