What will work as a defence is actual evidence. An oath taken by Cummings is worthless.

There's a near-consensus on this Forum that the longer Johnson hangs on, the better Labour's election chances will be.

That email invite suffices for most of the public.
Would Johnson's oath be equally worthless?

So you have two alleged liars and you choose, without waiting for evidence and preferring to take full account of uncorroborated allegations, to believe one over the other.
I wouldn’t apply for a position as a judge without a lot more education if I were you! Your conclusion, and the way you arrived at it, is completely illogical.

I am afraid that the views of this Forum do not represent evidence.

So what? That email does not prove that the event had his blessing. And for all you know, there might have been a subsequent email that withdrew or amended the first. We simply don’t know, do we?
I have no idea why you are so scared of the report. Don’t you want to know the full detail behind it?
Of course you don’t.

He hasn’t said that. What he said about not being told it was against the rules was in answer to the allegation that he was told just that.
You have changed his denial into a separate assertion.

Dave42 is right. Check out the Sky News video below. Johnson says "nobody told me" the Number 10 garden party during lockdown was "against the rules".
Whilst ignorance of the law is no defence, they're his rules that he announced the rules to the public!

The Government's alleged attempt at a deadcat in the form of briefing that Ghana and Rwanda would be sent asylum applicants has ended spectacularly poorly. Ghana has cleverly termed it "Operation Dead Meat" and denied it strongly.

EXC As many as 20 Tory MPs from the 2019 intake are planning to submit letters of no confidence in Boris Johnson tomorrow.
The number could breach the 54 letters required for a confidence vote. One 2019 Tory MP told me it could be the PM’s “D-Day”, adding: “His time has gone.”

He looked like a five year old who had been caught with his hands in the sweetie jar. My dog makes a better job of looking contrite. He should be a lot better at it by now, he's had enough practice apologising to all and sundry. Perhaps he needs some lessons from Matt Hancock.

Your dog would also make a better job of running the country too.

Re: All those No.10 lockdown parties
Bit of a bugger for Carrie mind, all that money she spent on the decorating and now it looks like she’s going to be moving out

Re: All those No.10 lockdown parties
Sky are reporting that some MPs think they've got 54 letters already in. This might be kicking off tonight.

Can understand now why Johnson said the place was a bit of a dump. After so many house parties, I can appreciate it was not in the same condition that Theresa May left it.

tbf, Brownlow spent it first, then it was Conservative Central Office and the Cabinet Office, then it was Boris Johnson…
