Apparently Johnson, Dorries. and that other cunt still haven’t actually resigned formally as MPs.

Dorries hasn't yet, but Johnson and Adams did yesterday.

I assume Mad Nad has reached the "Oh Shit" stage in the Cycle of What The Fuck have I Done

Sky News are reporting that Johnson submitted some more evidence to the privileges committee just before midnight last night. Hopefully the committee will treat the late submission with the distain it deserves. Johnson is just playing for time, trying to squeeze in a few more well paid speaking jobs before he is officially labelled a liar by the committee.

I understand from the Twitter that Charlotte Owen is the daughter of Allegra Mostyn-Owen, Boris Johnson's ex-wife.
This wouldn’t take a Fleet Street hot shot reporter very long to confirm.

The word 'superinjunction' comes to mind.

Are you implying this could be Baroness Fitz-dePfeffel?

I know it’s not a criminal case, but…..
You do not have to say anything. But, it may harm your defence if you do not mention when questioned something which you later rely on in court.

Spadder McPastry suddenly remembering that occasion when he did assure Big Dog that no rules were being broken, if he knows what's fucking good for him.

Wouldn’t it be delicious;

“I have to confess, but to prove my innocence, Ms Dorris will confirm I spent the night with her”

“What fucking peerage!”

I suspect that it’s just a remix of all the original bullshit, done to give the impression of something new to add further ‘evidence’ to his claim it was a stitch-up.

Marina Hyde takes a look at Johnson's ignominious exit, and the sad bastards still clinging to him. "Cuck Norris" is a wonderful description.

Well he followed up with more garbage how they hated him.

What do you mean by garbage? If he's saying people hate him then he's actually telling the truth for once!

Boris Johnson calls for Tory MP on privileges committee to resign

In which he'll soon learn he's no longer the big dog.

https://www.theguardian.com/politics/20 ... -to-resign

Boris Johnson has called for a Conservative MP on the privileges committee to resign as a furious blue-on-blue row erupted on the eve of a long-awaited report that will find he misled parliament over Partygate.

In an attempt to disparage the findings of the report, Johnson called allegations that Bernard Jenkin attended a birthday drinks in parliament during Covid restrictions a “total contempt of parliament” and said he has “no choice” but to recuse himself from the panel.

The move was called “utterly desperate” by senior Tories who believe the storm was blown up by Johnson to undermine the privileges committee’s damning findings against him, which are set to be published on Thursday.

It’s nice he now thinks people who attended lockdown parties should resign.

Shame he never.

[Tubby Isaacs]

Bozo is after another Trump style talking point after "Harriet Harman" fell flat. Bernard Jenkin wasn't the Prime Minister, and didn't lie at the dispatch box.

Jenkin gave him a hard time at the committee too, I think.

Some Tory MPs reacted with fury, believing Johnson had engineered the new claims emerging about Jenkin to derail the privileges committee investigation. One said: “Boris will desperately be opening his little black book and desperately trying to cast aspersions elsewhere. He would burn parliament to the ground around him.” Another added: “We’re not far off him asking Andrew Bridgen for his tinfoil hat supplier.”

I reckon this could be Tim Loughton who has a good sense of humour and has had Bozo's number for ages.

[satnav]

The Bernard Jenkin story is just a red herring. Johnson wasn't forced out of office because he attended a party, he was forced out of office because he attended numerous parties but then lied to parliament about the parties.

It is also worth remembering that Johnson made sure that Bernard Jenkin became chair of the powerful Liaison committee believing that Jenkin would give him an easy ride. Yet again Johnson's has proved to be a very bad judge of character.

[kreuzberger]

He was forced out of office for entirely different reasons - Chris Pincher.

The privileges committee has nowt to do with that.

Three Ps:
Patterson (Lobbying and the attempt to legitimise it)
Partygate (Ambushed by cake: My arse)
Pincher (Speaking of arses)

[Crabcakes]

Well I can see now why he wanted to get his say in first - the report absolutely demolishes him.

He is utterly finished. And should now have the word ‘disgraced former prime minister’ appended to whatever he’s being described as.

[Crabcakes]

Also, his last ditch submission appears to have just been slagging people off:
