They hosted a party during lockdown.They knew it was against the rules.They knew they couldn’t admit it.They thought it was funny.Then they covered it up.The Prime Minister must hand over everything the Government knows about the parties in Downing Street to the police.

That said, out in the real world, there doesn't seem to me yet to be the same anger about this as there was about Hancock. Perhaps because Hancock was always a cheerleader for lockdown. If Boris announces Plan B later, it may well be different.

Excellent question from IDS for once and he seems to have actually gotten the Prime Minister to announce a diplomatic boycott of the Winter Games. 😲
Good if so. There should be such a boycott.
Three shots of Pfizer vaccine can 'neutralise' Omicron variant, lab test shows

Will the CABSEC also be asked to investigate the *flat* party on Fri 13 Nov, the other flat parties, & the flat's 'bubble' policy...?
Pissing get on with it ....

Watch Live, scroll back to noon
Focus on getting everyone their boosters instead, already most over 50s have already been able to get a booster
If China are going to basically imprison athletes we shouldn't be sending our athletes to China.
Mind you, the Met will probably accidentally discover that all the heads of ACPOO were at the party. Then try and cover it up by using marker pen on the screen showing the video. Yellow marker pen.
They usually make you hand over your phones, tablets, and watches when you enter the building.
Just recently had Moderna for my booster, praying I am protected
Speaker is spot on and Boris as PM is hanging by a thread
We should do a deal - they can kill her, if they pay us.
We could also do a deal to re-purpose the Uyghurs in Chinese detention camps as unpaid workers in the UK. This would prevent wage inflation, help the Chinese and restart a traditional British industry.
Edit - it takes about 4-5 days for the booster to work.
History will be most unkind to Boris Johnson, particularly on Covid-19.
He pissed the summer months away when we could have vaccinated school children, there was no urgency on the booster jab until recently.
The Stratton video was recorded professionally in the briefing room, you cannot move those around easily.
It’s obviously not /great/, but that 40x factor brings it down to around the worst of the effective vaccines produced against Covid-19 in the last year IIRC. You’d definitely prefer to have it than nothing at all.
I really, /really/ wish the news media would report this stuff with due consideration for what the science actually means, rather than grabbing the headline from a paper pre-print on BioArXiv & running around as if everyone’s hair is on fire.
The booking site keeps fobbing me off.
Will be huge pressure on Western leaders, especially Biden and Johnson, not to send a team.
Of course, Peng Shuai deserves asylum anywhere - Australia will be the first major tournament of the new year.
Perhaps Cummings is behind all this in the final analysis. This is all from exactly that crucial patch at the very end of his time working on the governmental payroll, after all, when the fallout was bad. He also seems exactly the kind of person to have been plotting, planning and timing his revenge for a whole year since, carefully assembling material from any of his supporters still inside no.10.
The reason for this is the same reason that the original vaccinations were given in age sequence, downwards.
Older people are more likely to get serious effects from COVID. Which means that the "value" of a vaccinations (booster) or otherwise given to an older person is higher.
Getting exercised about the particular brand of vaccine you had, when all are pretty effective, is a waste of time.
Which combination works better is probably down to an individual's genetics and medical history than any intrinsic advantage to any combination.
Get vaxxed, people!
You can probably get good odds that almost everyone who did have to work in an office last December, had some sort of deal to finish an hour or two early one day, and order some wine and nibbles.
The problem is, that nuance is difficult.
It may, of course, be the case that there were loads of extra guests invited, dozens of bottles of champagne, a few grams of Colombian marching powder, and they all staggered out of of the door well past midnight. In which case, they’re utterly screwed.
“Reuters is carrying a somewhat bleak analysis that has emerged from virologist Sandra Ciesek of the University hospital Frankfurt.
“Stressing that she has posted only selected findings and a paper hasn’t been presented yet, she has said exposing the blood of vaccinated individuals to different virus variants, she found that the ability to mount an antibody response to Omicron in people who had three shots of BioNTech/Pfizer was up to 37 times lower than the response to Delta.
“An antibody response to Omicron half a year after a two-shot regimen of Pfizer/BioNTech, Moderna or a mixed course of AstraZeneca/BioNTech was not even measurable, Ciesek added.”

The government needs to get smart, stop making matters worse, and absolutely no hint of Plan B.
To implement Plan B now is just adding insult to injury expecting us to make more sacrifices when they were laughing at it. Just keep on vaccinating people, don't do anything else, and have this Omicron wave go over a vaccinated population.
Anyone very vulnerable should have had their booster by now. We just need to live our lives and if some triply-vaccinated people or antivaxxers get sick or die that's unfortunate but it is what it is. The vaccines should be the only tool in our arsenal.
If Boris could stop making stupid unforced errors like Paterson and this party mess, avoid Plan B, get through Christmas without locking us down then next year could be better. If he can't, he has to go.
With three jabs it's ok.
Not OK.
Starmer says he should say sorry (Boris not Blackford I think)
That is it. Nothing else.
Who gave him assurances no rules were broken?
How were no rules broken?
Also, 'up to' covers a wide range.
On another note, will be interesting to see the figures from South Africa today. WoW increases yesterday were much, much lower than previously - could this be the peak already, or just a reporting blip?
Until Boris is replaced at which point whoever is the new leader he gets a software upgrade to become their biggest fan.
I'll laugh so hard if its Truss.
