Now I am actually going to go a bit OLD_BOY here and say, in isolation, I don't think this one is that bad.
Yes, it may be technically against the rules but if staff who are already there have a drink at their desks on a Friday then I don't care. I also don't think others would care as much if this was the full extent of it. Obviously it's not good taking into account all the other stories because more than anything you do wonder just much time they're drinking at No 10.
But it is not a specially organised party that people are invited to attend. The Garden Party was so absurd because it was a chain e-mail, you have a bring a bottle, and people had a literal bloody party. |
A true Old Boy reply would be to let's wait until Sue Gray's report is released.
What might that report say:
- Just publish the facts and let the politicians fight it out.
- Clear No 10 and severely damage the public's trust in British democracy.
- A halfway house leading to both above outcomes arising.
- Find Boris guilty and annoy the person who's commissioned the report.
Think writing the report is not going to be a career-enhancing move for her.
