Boris Johnson and Rishi Sunak to be fined over lockdown parties

Yeah I'm from Glasgow, we're not allowed to drink in public and haven't been for decades. Can't be trusted

Well if this is the case of them both being fined then therefore he broken the rule's of lockdown etc and therefore should resign along with everyone else in the government who attended any parties and has been given fines.

Probably best thing to do is call a general election as probably every Tory member is as bad as Boris in breaking the rules.

Does drunk Glaswegians singing the Scottish national anthem a cappella really sound that terrible?

I agree there are so many MP's fined we need a hard reset (they should all be dismissed) and a GE is the best and most efficient way to do that.

But what do you do when they win a landslide again?

But will they so many people feel betrayed I certainly won't be voting for him. The local election results will be very interesting.

Well it's only 2 lines long...

'O Flower Of Scotland, Da Dee Da Dee, Da Dee Dah Dee' With an optional 'Up The Bhoys!' or 'RAN-GERS' (with no irony)

But yeah, between the football and old gang trouble our council long lost patience and passed bylaws banning public drinking here,, they only in recent years started giving licenses for pubs to open enclosed beer gardens in public (downside, they also refused to grant any new nightclub licenses... ever )

Mae it's more than two lines


O Flower of Scotland,
When will we see
Your likes again,
That fought and died for,
Your wee bit Hill and Glen,
And stood against them,
Proud Edward's Army,
And sent them homeward,
Tae think again.
The Hills are bare now,
And Autumn leaves
lie thick and still,
O'er land that is lost now,
Which those so dearly held,
That stood against them,
Proud Edward's Army,
And sent them homeward,
Tae think again.
Those days are past now,
And in the past
they must remain,
But we can still rise now,
And be a nation again,
That stood against them,
Proud Edward's Army,
And sent them homeward,
Tae think again.

Yes, I'm aware it's a full song, tis a joke, I've had to sing/play the thing too many damn times as it is, so I'm well aware how many lapse into the 'Da Da Da Da-Dee Dah' after a few lines

Most of the lockdown restrictions in England & NI were idiotic, impractical, unworkable and unnecessary.
I've never worn a facial covering and would never do so.
I stay away from all venues and premises where wearing it was required or is requested by the owner/tenant/residents.

Johnson, Sunak and the rest of the cabinet are currently parroting lines about 'delivering for the British people'. No doubt their crisis management PR team is telling them all the same thing. Sadly I have no hope that this fine will lead to any real change in government, just the same sleaze and corruption as before.

my family members who died because of covid would probably say we didn't do enough

Of course because in retrospect they would have wanted any measure to have prevented their deaths. We basically wasted 2 years on a virus that killed relatively few people for the number it did infect. It made no sense to shut down everyone's lives for a relatively tiny minority of people who died (who were mostly elderly anyway).

That's the real elephant in the room. The people in No10 never went to these parties and were worried sick " Aah I might catch COVID and die" no because they knew the virus was relatively harmless to healthy young people. They knew the laws they implemented were unreasonable and unnecessary but done it anyway because they could whilst not following it themselves.
