As if there isn't enough evidence that Johnson is unfit for office

The whips have been told to spin it as the big clear out by Johnson.

Oh well.

2 more resigned from No 10 staff.

It’s like the night of the long knives!!

She sounds very ambitious from what I’ve just read about her.

Knowing more about the persons involved, I retract my previous post about moral codes as it is now apparent that Ms Mirza is just another rat leaving a sinking ship. The Savile comment may have been too much for her but she wasn't concerned about his oft reported lies, corrupt behaviour, cronyism.

As the Prime Minister was hosting parties, I was burying my father. How can a premier who inspires such contempt continue to lead?

We did a good job for him – poems, a piper. But it was just a very few of us, standing outside in a churchyard in the wind: we were unable to hold our own service inside the church where he had been an elder for more than 50 years and he never had the proper send-off he richly deserved.

Another letter has gone in from Anthony Mangnall

Gove defended Johnson yesterday. This is Gove who said that the EU was responsible for his fathers business folding only for his father to come out and say that wasn’t true.

I hope Raab, Cleverly and Dorries, who defended Johnson about the Starmer slur, will hang their heads in shame, or at least the voters in their constituencies will show them the door.

BREAKING: Larry the cat has resigned as Chief Mouser with Downing Street quickly running out of rats.

You can imagine a meeting of old friends including Cummings Mirza and husband and Sunak with Gove hovering in the background

Mirza's husband has been close to Sunak for years. Allegedly, Smith encouraged Sunak to go into politics.

Another former colleague of PM and Mirza predicts her departure could be start of the end game... 'The apocalypse is preceded by all sorts of things you never expect to happen. The moon turns red and the sun goes black. Munira leaving boris had to be on such a list.'

So Jack Doyle's gone now ... hmmm.

Allegedly, he attended one of the Downing Street parties.

Yes I think you are right.

She is also implicated in dodgy PPE deals.

And her husband was the founder of "Killing Kittens", a sex site, which received government funding at the beginning of the pandemic.

The UK Statistics Authority have written to Downing St to advise them that the Prime Minister's claim that there are more people in work now than at the start of the pandemic is wrong. He has now made this claim 7 times but knows it is wrong! When will he correct the record?!

Yes I think you are right.

She is also implicated in dodgy PPE deals.

I wouldn't trust Mirza or her husband, Dougie Smith, as far as I could throw them. They've stuck with Johnson through thick and thin for 13 years and, quite frankly, they're as bad as he is. It wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if they're manoeuvring to join Team Sunak. They know as much as Cummings about where the bodies lie. I think this is a case of rats leaving a sinking ship.

Director of Communications has quit at No 10

Johnson was attacking Starmer for not keeping the CPS in order - with 8000 staff when he cannot keep his own house order, with about 400 staff.

I reckon the threat of resignation from Mirza prompted Johnson effort of an apology.

Long before we had ever heard of the internet there was a saying "Lies can get right round the world before the truth has got its pants on"

So now we have the internet, and if we're not careful, lies will win.

That’s what Mirza meant in her letter I assume Whitewavemark2. He’s gone too far.

The threat of letters has made Johnson withdraw his comment re Saville. Of course he doesn’t mean it what an idiot

NEW: Johnson backs down on his Starmer Savile comments:

"I'm talking not about the leader of the opposition's personal record when he was when he was DPP and I totally understand that he had nothing to do personally with those decisions."

^ "I totally understand that he had nothing to do personally with those decisions.^

"I was making a point about his responsibility for the organisation as a whole."

That doesn't sound like much of a retraction to me. He's still making an implication, isn't he? Did he forget to mention the inquiry Starmer ordered into how/why the case was dropped and his apology for it happening under his watch?

How ironic if the final straw is a schoolboy slur which is proven to be untrue about the leader of the opposition, it’s just such typical pathetic behaviour. Rishi Sunak has said he wouldn’t have said what Johnson did now - the vultures are circling. It won’t have done Starmer any harm, in fact it’s backfired so badly it’s done him good I think.

I might have to buy one of these.
