The real reason why the story about Carrie being offered a 100k pa job with Johnson was hastily withdrawn from The Times is now revealed - they were caught in a compromising position on his office sofa ( think Bill Clinton and Monica L , or maybe think BJ). maybe you don’t want to have that mental image or maybe it’s hard to swallow. Carrie must have a strong stomach is all I can say.

These things do go on. My friend used to meet her friends husband in his office at teatime and get down to it on his desk.

If only the sofa in his office could talk. It must have seen a lot of action....... maybe not?

Oh dear! I do wish you hadn’t shared that with us. It turns my stomach what some women will do to be with a man they consider to have power or money or both. Me, I would rather scrub floors. Dig deep enough and I’m sure there’s many, many more that get away with the same, we just don’t know about them. It being caught that’s the problem with those people not the act, they really don’t care. If you are looking for principles than and/or integrity, don’t look at a politician.

Makes you almost long for times past, when it seems that the worst that would happen in workplaces was a quick grope in the stationary cupboard, or drunken sex over the photocopier, during the Christmas party lol ?

Well, he didn't get knighted for either doing a good job, or his intelligence.

I wonder how it feels when you get a knighthood for services to your boss and him getting a BJ??

Oh dear DiamondLily I’ll never think of him as BJ again… yuck.

Oh yuk yuk yuk
It did happen in my work office and one of my colleagues was boasting about having sex on the desks after everyone had gone home I couldn’t look at my desk without wondering !!!

A Tory Mp walked in on them, allegedly.

Allegedly it was Gavin Williamson. I wonder why that idiot got a knighthood ?

When I first read about it, looked at his fat belly with his shirt hanging over the waistband of his trousers, I did have a little bit of sick in my mouth envy. Not envy.

I never can understand why any woman would do that.confused

I can't imagine anything more ghastly than getting anywhere near Johnson's nether regions. ?

Oh dear. I feel a bit faint at the thought

And once again, we wonder what does this disgusting, lying, cheating, lazy narcissist has to do before his party realise he’s not fit to be PM

I think he could wriggle and lie his way out of almost anything. Like Larry the cat he seems to have nine lives.

Oh, and thank heavens for Private Eye who are not cowed by pressure. I expect Mad Nad will try to shut them down.

Several important points here

Johnson's wife was undergoing treatment for cancer at the time.

Carrie was with him, without security clearance, in the Foreign Office premises.

Although the 'offence' was the same as Clinton, Clinton's problem was that he denied it had ever happened. Just like Johnson did when questioned about allegations of forcing a previous mistress (Petronelle Wyatt) to have an abortion. Michael Howard fired him for lying, not for what he did.

I can never unsee that in my mind now.

Definitely too hard to swallow ...............

Wasn't that 'what done for' Bill Clinton?

AGAA4 Thu 30-Jun-22 11:56:34
