Boris Johnson at the House Privileges Committee!

[@MrJaspett]

We need a public inquiry as to whether we were reckless or intentionally moronic in voting him in.

[@badenhowell3312]

Well, that's a ridiculous question, it was both!

[@andrewneil6027]

[@frankshailes3205]

Racists voted him in. Presumably that counts as intentionally moronic.

Nailed it! "Boris seems affronted when criticised for what amounts to a gross failure of responsibility. I think he honestly believes that it is churlish of us not to regard him as an exception, one who should be free of the network of obligation that binds everyone else." (From Boris Johnson's Eton School report 1982.)

[@frankshailes3205]

"one who should be free of the network of obligation that binds everyone else." Like every other criminal.

"I never called it a party except when I called it a party as shorthand because the press were calling the party a party" A brilliant and hilarious example of Boris logic in which it's important that the premises and conclusions have as little to do with each other as possible. Excellent Matt and even more amusing than the real thing.

It was not a 'party' as there were no hats, no conga line & 9 months later no more kids. Yes there was some coke, someone lined up a load of vodka shots... But it was not a party..

Fortunately the law doesn't mention "parties", it refers to "gatherings". Which these were - even BoJo admits that.

Great start "Who are you people?!". Boris as usual never encountered people on his backbenches and members of the opposing party. Treats everyone with the same amount of his own dose of honesty, integrity and profesionalism.

Well said! His excuse that it must have been obvious to all those civil servants that the rules and guidelines were being broken is beyond belief--who made the rules, who explained them to us every evening. WHO WAS IN CHARGE? Isn't it enough for Mr Johnson that 126 fixed penalty notices were issued to 83 people in 10 Downing Street for whom Mr Johnson was ministerially responsible? How many FPNs did Mr Johnson receive? One, yes ONE! Come on Committee, do your duty by the British people--make amends for letting this despicable person ride roughshod over your Inquiry--throw the book at him--it's time for justice!
