The Number 10 party story is really cutting through to voters – politicalbetting.com
Started filming in North Shropshire this morning. Took about 30 seconds before a member of the public (unprompted) mentioned the party story.

The Welsh government is asking everyone to use the tests before Christmas shopping, going to parties or visiting others.
In her weekly press conference today, Ms Sturgeon said: "The fact is, we do face a renewed and very severe challenge in the face of the new omicron variant.
"To be blunt, because of the much greater and faster transmissibility of this new variant, we may be facing, indeed we may be starting to experience, a potential tsunami of infections."
"It underlines our fear that a new wave may indeed be starting,” Ms Sturgeon added. She continued: "The fact is, we do face a renewed and very severe challenge in the face of the new omicron variant.
"Omicron is going to very quickly overtake delta as the common strain in Scotland... as early as the very beginning of next week," she added.
If this is the level of transmission, no lockdown etc will stop it.
However, he has been wrong before, notably on Ivermectin
However we should avoid that, our last resort should be vaxports for physical attendance at all the above now, not another lockdown

LDEM: 49.6% (+17.7)
CON: 39.8% (+4.0)
GRN: 8.7% (+8.7)
LAB: 1.9% (-4.1)
Apparently there’s a correlation between positive outcome Ivermectin studies & locations where liver flukes are endemic, which is suggestive, but not actually proof outright.
If this is the case then Ivermectin is important in treating Covid in areas with endemic fluke infections (and indeed, in those areas it’s already standard practice to give anti-worming drugs alongside steroids for this reason I believe) but is otherwise completely irrelevant!

Editt: Presumably that includes schistosomiasis (VERY NASTY) as well as those sheep liver flukes we used to see in biology lessons?
There may also be cctv evidence we have yet to see. I do hope Case has demanded all cctv records for the period in question. Should tell us whether bojo was indahouse atdatime.
Now, about those idiots advising Biden that fire up the printer, because inflation was a solved problem in the West...no more boom and bust.
And of course, this will filter through to the UK.
Crichel Down.
Falklands.
1. BJ was in Downing Street
2. The party was in Downing Street
3. BJ claims to have no knowledge of the party going on in the building he was in
4. Even if he was not there he will have noticed it happening. So he is lying to parliament again
We would fight it all the way and rightly so
So why haven’t they gone straight to Hard Lockdown?
1. They fear the terrible economic and social damage before Xmas and they are praying for a miracle on “mildness”
2. They now accept lockdowns aren’t enough. It’s here and it will hit us all

Boosters in Wales 37.9%
Boosters in England 37.3%
unless you call 0.3% 'a lot better'
There has been no witness evidence Boris attended any of these parties
"Reasonable doubt" is a possible conclusion one can come do after weighing the evidence, including circumstantial evidence.
100 people will be in supermarkets most of the time, 1 infected person walks in, even with masks etc, you going to spread it to loads of people, as hardly anybody uses a FFP3 mask and / or doesn't spend half their time pulling up / down / round and round.

It is hospitalisations alone that matter in terms of lockdown and all the evidence is barely anyone who is double vaccinated and had their booster is hospitalised from Omicron, hence the more we get double jabbed and with their boosters the less we have any need of another lockdown
This is becoming a bit like one of those dubious arguments that people make up about regional differences in a country which basically boil down to population map.
You singled out churches because of your ideological agenda. Most of us have been double vaccinated now and given their older demographic most church attendees and church choirs will have had their boosters too.
We will not give in to you, we will fight you all the way!
In fact, most of if was spent on serious sound-proofing, so that Carrie and Wilf would not be disturbed by the parties going on elsewhere in the building.
for up to date data look here:

I'd say exactly the same thing about a Secular Society singsong or a Plymouth Brethren conventicle as your ideologically chosen sect with its political agenda. Or a performance of Oh what a lovely war.
"...blah blah blah you are the enemy of us conservatives..." Doesn't sound right but grammatically I think it is right.
Go again.
Most church attendees by Christmas day will have been double vaccinated and had their boosters, denial of church attendance and choirs and carols would be denial of religious freedom and a secular declaration of cultural war on the religious.
But my beliefs are really besides the point. Circumstantial evidence is evidence. The idea that "circumstantial" evidence is somehow worthless is a popular myth. Take for example the mythical "smoking gun". Finding a literal smoking gun at the scene of a murder is circumstantial evidence, but potentially pretty important.
I'm not sure which is worse.
I do hope they have a whipround if it is cancelled.
HYUFD Stylites, alone atop his pillar, shouting proclamations into the empty desert.
But it is what it is, and in the harsh light of day we're facing a meltdown in the NHS. If we do get this Tsunami of cases it doesn't matter that Omicron is no worse than or even milder than Delta - the sheer numbers infected skyrockets hospitalisation or death.
So what do we do? I think I agree with the comments that a lockdown isn't going to contain it - not that we can realistically hope to implement one even if wanted.
Either way, I am off to that London tomorrow. Drink and party. Whilst we still can.
If cases are all you care about then go full lockdown this Christmas and destroy the economy too.
This is now a matter of pure ideology and liberty not science.
Secular leftwingers like you who want to shut down religious services and private businesses and hugely expand state power again and conservatives like me and libertarians who want to preserve religious freedom and keep our economy open! It is now just the next stage in the culture wars.
(fieldwork 6 to 8 December - changes from mid-November)
Macron 24 (-2)
Pecresse 17 (+8!)
Le Pen 16 (-2)
Zemmour 13 (-2)
Melenchon 9 (+1,5)
Jadot 7 (-1)
Hidalgo 5 (=)
all others combined 9
Total left of Macron 26.5
Total right of Macron 49.5
Yesterday's big news was Hidalgo's deperate attempt tot revive her campaign by asking for a left-wing primary. Jadot and Melenchon said no, as well as several smaller candidates.
Have you not been paying attention? Hospitalization numbers follow cases. And therefore case numbers matter, enormously.
Not sure your point makes sense.
You are saying one risky activity takes precedence over another. Because Christmas.
OMICRON THE EATER OF NARRATIVES is here to devour these pathetic agendas. Boris is going nowhere because in about 3 weeks we will be huddled under Hungerford Bridge gnawing on raw weasels, and no one will give a tiny tiny fuck
Note you are not in hospital or dead
You need to have a sense of social responsibility.
Me, I’m a flinty eyed alpha male and I look Death in the eye and I shrug and say Me ne frego
Apart from the times when I am bored or drunk and I lurch into absurd hyperbole for my own amusement, of course
It is not about social responsibility, it is about your leftwing, statist agenda of control
What hurts with this story is how relatable it is. A lot of stories are a bit weird, wallpaper and other bollocks doesn't mean anything to anyone. But Christmas was screwed for everyone last year, this year people are nervous about the same . . . this is a kick in the balls for everyone who followed the rules last year and quite frankly the government deserves to be kicked back for it.
Hopefully the Lib Dems win a landslide in NS next week. If I was there I'd be voting yellow, no questions about it. This simply isn't good enough.
