Every minister, parliamentarian & staffer at the #downingstreetparty must resign NOW.
No ifs no buts
The rule of law is a fundamental value , the glue that hold us together as a nation.
Once that is trashed by those in power the very essence of our democracy is at stake.
The comments made by Hannah Bardell, the SNP MP for Livingston, on Twitter on 7 December 2021.
One of my team died of cancer earlier this year. Throughout her illness my team and I were not able to spend the time with her or indeed support each other, in the way we normally would have. So many have sacrificed so much during this pandemic. Tonight, I just feel sick and sad.
The comments made by Boris Johnson, the Prime Minister, on 7 December 2021.
What I can tell you is that all the guidelines were observed and continue to be observed.
The comments made by Piers Morgan, the media commentator, on Twitter on 7 December 2021.
Boris Johnson is continuing to lie about last year’s illicit Christmas party at No. 10 – even when we’ve all now seen his own spokeswoman on video laughing about it & wondering how best to lie about it to the media.
Even by his standards, this is absolutely shameful.
The comments made by Gary Lineker on 7 December 2021.
After all the sacrifices the people of this country have made, they’re laughing at us. Pretty unforgivable.
The comments made by Roger Gale, the Conservative MP for North Thanet, on 7 December 2021.
The No.10 party has all the hallmarks of another ‘Barnard Castle’ moment. No.10 clearly has some serious questions to answer. Fast.
The comments made by Angela Rayner, the Deputy Leader of the Labour Party, on 7 December 2021.
Starting to feel like everyone except me got an invite to the No.10 Christmas parties…
Can’t imagine why they wouldn’t want me at an illegal party held whilst millions of people were separated from their family and friends.
The comments made by Keir Starmer, the Leader of the Opposition, on 7 December 2021.
People across the country followed the rules, even when that meant being separated from loved ones.
They had a right to expect the government was doing the same.
To lie and to laugh about those lies is shameful.
We have a Prime Minister who’s socially distanced from the truth.
The comments made by Dominic Raab, the Deputy Prime Minister and Justice Secretary, on 7 December 2021.
We’re building the prisons to incarcerate dangerous and prolific offenders. We’re deploying the tech to stop the flow of drugs, weapons and phones into prisons. And we’re re-orienting the regime to get offenders off drugs for good, and into work – to cut crime, and keep the pubic safe.
The comments made by David Lammy, the Shadow Foreign Secretary, on 7 December 2021.
This devastating testimony alleges that while Kabul fell and British troops risked their lives, the Foreign Secretary was asleep at the wheel and the department’s response was shambolic and incompetent.
This whistleblower paints a picture of chaos and dysfunction, for which innocent Afghans have paid the ultimate price. Crucial emails left unread. The crisis centre chronically understaffed. Afghan allies abandoned. Only 5% of those needing help receiving it. And a foreign secretary – and still the Deputy Prime Minister – who was lounging on the beach and had lost all grip of his department.
This evidence raises the most serious questions of competence during a moment of international crisis. The Foreign Secretary must urgently come to the House and address these claims.
