You have a short memory. Rigby Peston Burley etc were on the tv everyday calling for more and more restrictions they had no balance in their questioning yet the Sky journalists went to Burley’s party.
She wasn't, and isn't, the PM. That's really the beginning and end of the debate. Poor effort at whataboutery, 2/10.

He doesn't like women full stop. Sure, he likes f
king women, but he's treated them abysmally over the years, with pressurised abortions, affairs, lies etc.
The man has, 5 times, got women pregnant whilst married to other women. That is not someone who likes or respects women.
Something he no doubt learned from his scumbag, wife beating father.king women, but he's treated them abysmally over the years, with pressurised abortions, affairs, lies etc.The man has, 5 times, got women pregnant whilst married to other women. That is not someone who likes or respects women.
Listened to most of it. A bit on the TV, the rest on 5 live.
I'm not a Boris fan by any stretch but I think he seemed pretty well prepared and stuck to his story throughout - In many ways, I thought he seemed quite reasonable, calm, and rational. I might even say it was one of his better performances.
Whereas the MPs asking the questions seemed quite unreasonable to me. Asking repetitive questions clearly not altered based on the answers already given, making them look rather stupid - I don't know if this is the format of one of these things - in that you have to ask a pre-prepared question even if it has effectively already been addressed, but looked daft nonetheless.
My biggest takeaway though - Harriet Harman comes across as a rather horrible person - just my opinion and something which I'd never really noticed before...

This is the way of these committees. The questioners have their questions prepared and don’t seem to alter them based on ground already covered.I'm not a Boris fan by any stretch but I think he seemed pretty well prepared and stuck to his story throughout - In many ways, I thought he seemed quite reasonable, calm, and rational.

In case you missed it:
Parliamentary Committee : You lied - everyone knows it. Even your advisers are now saying it.
Johnson : Errr... my (stupidly expensive) lawyer just passed me a piece of paper, and apparently I didn't lie, as I didn't know what I was doing at the time.
Parliamentary Committee : We'll get back to you.
Johnson : You all smell.

I don’t agree with much Electro says, but I’m with him entirely on Braverman. As my old man used to say: if she had a brain cell she’d be dangerous, but fortunately…
Braverman actually has 2 braincells I'll have you know!! It's just that one of them is lost, and the other one is out looking for it!

I felt the complete opposite, he bumbled along as per usual, the committee did well to keep their line of questioning on track despite his repeated interruptions and irrelevant answers, they stayed calm he got riled up...I'm not a Boris fan by any stretch but I think he seemed pretty well prepared and stuck to his story throughout - In many ways, I thought he seemed quite reasonable, calm, and rational.

Saying "I believe I did nothing wrong" until your blue in the face isn't a defence, Harman was dignified in the face of a man trying to rubbish her in his written evidence.
He's liar and cheat but we knew that long before he became PM.

And yet, Boris was elected Mayor of London twice, and was appointed PM to 'get Brexit done' following St Teresa's attempt to fudge the result, and was re-affirmed as our great leader after the rout of the Dec 2019 elections.He's liar and cheat but we knew that long before he became PM.
The voting public must like a 'liar and a cheat'?

I suspect that he’ll get away with it however

Er…. Yes it is. The original point of the committee investigating was to see if he knowingly misled the house.He's liar and cheat but we knew that long before he became PM.
Since there is no smoking gun of a recorded conversation where his aides are saying ‘well we’ve breached Covid guidance but don’t tell parliament’ all he has to say is ‘I didn’t know I misled the house *because I still don’t believe we breached the guidance* and he’s home and hosed. Which is why Pannick spent most of the session behind him smiling.
Harperson knows this which is why there was the divergence into was his behaviour reckless? Now that one is trickier since it’s probably going to go on party political lines.
The old it wasn’t robbery, I was only borrowing it defence.
He was always going to cling to the borrowing schtick, regardless of the questions.
It was always going to be seen as pathetic. He doesn’t care though as long as there are republican nut job conferences prepared to pay him hundreds of thousands of dollars to say what they want to hear.
He might finally be able to pay off all his ex wives.

Harman came over very poorly.
...She just sounds bitter towards Johnson which isn’t right.
Not just me that saw it that way then...She just sounds bitter towards Johnson which isn’t right.
He will walk away from it unscathed though, but anyone who listened to that and doesn’t think he is a massive c**t needs to seek help.
