Boris Johnson received this email. Did he…
A) Tell his team that it was obviously inappropriate because of the rules they had put in place for the country
B) Attend the drinks party himself twitter.com/PaulBrandITV/s…

Helpfully here’s crystal clear guidance from the Metropolitan Police from the actual day this drinks party happened at Number 10 twitter.com/metpoliceuk/st…
856
Boris Johnson told the House of Commons that there will be consequences for those who broke the rules. He knew that would have to include him if this came out. He assumed you wouldn’t find out. You have.

This is from Downing Street on the day of the drinks party. It was likely getting by set up outside when Oliver Dowden (now Conservative Chair) said:"You can meet 1 person outside your household, in an outdoor public place, provided that you stay 2m apart”

Multiple members of this government have debased themselves and the offices they hold by pedalling lies in a failed attempt to make the story go away. Every lie they tell incurs a debt to the truth. Sooner or later that debt must be paid…

Johnson sent the following messages the day before and the day after he hosted a drinks party. He knew that you were making sacrifices that he wasn’t. He claimed to be following the rules when he wasn’t. He thanked the carers and the NHS when his actions were harming them.

“Because of overdose of adrenaline when I was having an affair… it’s physically impossible for me to tell the truth.”
861
“Unlike Boris Johnson I can tell you that I wasn’t at the Downing Street drinks party during lockdown because, unlike Boris Johnson, I don’t think the rules are just for other people.”

I’m not saying that Boris Johnson is keen to avoid #PMQs tomorrow but he’s been shaking hands with everyone in the covid ward again… #kitileaks

I can’t comment on who’s responsible for the large cat turd in Boris Johnson’s shoe as I don’t want to prejudge Sue Gray’s independent investigation… #PMQs

Sorry latest huge crisis that threatens to topple this clown car of a government, you’ll have to wait in line… twitter.com/SkyNews/status…

Sure enough Johnson has gone for the non-apology apology, saying the public are wrong for believing that the Downing Street drinks party was against the guidance. He has misled parliament and will have to resign, just a matter now for how long he tries to cling on #PMQs

Wanted: New housemate for Westminster based feline. Recently decorated house includes excellent security, lightly used office space and large garden, suitable for hosting parties. #PMQs

Do you accept Boris Johnson’s “apology”? #PMQs

“I once attempted to persuade the UK public that I don’t know the difference between a garden drinks party and a work meeting” #PMQs

Have you accidentally attended a drinks party at your home that you were invited to, believing it was actually a work meeting? You may require legal representation…

Boris Johnson #partygate:
1. There were no parties
2. I’m disgusted to learn there were parties, which I didn’t know about
3. I personally attended a BYOB party, which I was invited to, believing it to be a work event
4. I apologise that you don’t think it was a work event

“Sorry Sharon, but it would be inappropriate for me to comment on this until Sue Gray has completed her investigation”

On the look out for “work events”
