a leaked video showed Downing Street staff joking about having a Christmas party while the country was under strict COVID rules​


"According to a report from the British tabloid The Daily Mirror, the party took place on December 18, 2020, and involved food and drinks, party games, and a secret Santa gift exchange. "

How do Brits feel about parties at number 10 while everyone else faced lockdown?
 

We've had the same thing in the US. Remember Gavin Newsom's dinner at the French Laundry during peak lockdown in California? Obama's unmasked Martha's Vineyard party? Fashion shows with masked servants and unmasked guests? The message is always that "masks are for other people."

I guess I don't care. Didn't they already have Covid. Plus there is locked up and there is locked down. One is way worse than the other.

Javid said this morning that PM Boris put everything he has into trying to save the UK from Covid19.

I'm no good at all within the political sphere but does seem to try to do his best.

the man is a clown... he's a happy Bumbling clown , which is why people like him... he's also an inveterate liar... ..but it's not him running the country it's his young g/f...now wife .... who is far more intelligent than he, but more scheming..unfortunately there's no opposition party good enough to even attempt to run the country so unless we depose him for a member of his own party we're stuck with this fool for the immediate future

Ooops.. just realised I'm wandering into the Political quicksand...

What do you think of Keir? seems solid in a way. I also think Boris is likeable -- human beings make a lot of mistakes, some cover them up, others make th best of it.
His wife is running it? Having seen her on a vid once after their child was born, she seems too weak for that. I don't know the situation well, have to admit.

What do you think will happen Holly. I've heard he's seriously losing support and his treatment of Omicron is over the top, focusing on boosters to the exclusion of all other ailments seems like a recipe for disaster, doesn't it?
 
Unfortunately, this isn't unusual and yes, we've had this sort of thing in the U.S. also. I can only imagine the things that happen that never come to light.

IMO this doesn't only happen with the rich and powerful but at smaller levels like the work places. The boss and cohorts taking a good lunch while a lower employee may not even get one sometimes.

So many jerks in this world.

Oh no, do not underestimate Carrie ( btw she has had 2 children now by Boris.. who incidentally cheated on his wife to be with her) .... she could buy and sell Boris over and over when it comes to brain cells,. She's a Political and animal welfare activist, and she's surrounded by the Carrie Mafia ( female).. all her female friends, given top jobs in the cabinet since she arrived in Boris's life.

To those who know them personally and well.. they all say the same thing about them . Carrie is the sergeant major, she doesn't ask for something to be done by Boris, she demands it.. she says Jump, he asks How High, and woe betide him if he doesn't...

It certainly does, but we're in a position of having to do as we're told, or be locked down completely again... Once this episode is over I strongly feel that BJ will lose his job, but Keir isn't strong enough to lead the country... and even if we took a chance on him, God forbid we would allow his party ( Labour) to run this country.. we'd have no country left ...so it would mean choosing someone from the conservative party to take over BJ's job

Oh my Holly, it's interesting to hear these little tidbits of gossip from across the pond we never get to hear about otherwise. You've fulfilled my snark quota for the week, ha hah.

There would certainly be plenty country left if Labour were to gain power.
The tories are only interested in feathering their own nests, always have been.

LOL... I don't disagree about your assertion with regard the Tories, but there's not one member of the labour party that knows their own way home on their own..much less run this country... but that's why Political discussion is not permitted on here, because no-one can agree on anything..

However , bad as the Conservatives have been, thank God the country has never voted a labour govt in , for more than a decade.. . ..and with that I plead the American 5th... in case I get my knuckles rapped from Admin.. 😁

We had a leader that we recently threw out with the trash. Married as many times and almost as many children. Boris will have a complete dozen within a few years.
