Perhaps she should do the interview again when she's sober and see whether she can still support this.
Gray: 'The excessive consumption of alcohol is not appropriate in a professional workplace at any time. Steps must be taken to ensure that every government department has a clear and robust policy in place covering the consumption of alcohol in the workplace.'

What a surprise. Outside Parliamentary Privilege, Raab seems very reluctant to repeat the slur Johnson made about Starmer.

Might this be because he knows it is a lie and open to litigation if he isn't able to hide behind Parliamentary Privilege?

This lot are the most despicable people to ever be in government at least in my lifetime. They aren't just despicable as senior politicians but as human beings.

I just listened to an interview with an ex colleague of Starmer’s who said that if Johnson repeats it outside of Parliament he will get sued.
It’s odd that Parliament protects liars in side the house but you can’t actually call them lairs.

Something nasty in the woodshed
Currently hearing that Johnson's spokesperson is saying that they will stand by this accusation. Interestingly, the Speaker has refused to condemn the PM's comment as 'disorderly' within the house - meaning he will allow this lie to stand.

Placing the association between Starmer and the failure to prosecute Savile into the broader public consciousness would appear to be the opening salvo in a campaign to discredit Starmer, initially by portraying him as a paedophile sympathiser.

I wonder if the return of Lynton Crosby may be connected in some way…

OOh. Let's hope he is as effective with Johnson as he was with Goldsmith's Mayoral campaign and Theresa May's 2017 election.

But this does have the grubby paw marks of Crosby all over it. His main (possibly only) tactic is to throw out smears with the intention of not standing by them but that people will talking about the smears rather than other stuff. Yet another dead cat specialist.

Aww c'mon, Dorries was just doing her bit for her Tory chums by 'drinking the evidence'.

What kind of a place have we come to where a civil servant has to suggest to a government dept that it's not 'professional' to be p*ssed at work
???

Thing is, I don't want to say that Dorries was definitely pissed. I don't know that she was, although a lot of people seem to think that.

However, regardless of anything else that's going on, if I was a senior manager and had just had an investigation report published that concluded that there was an unacceptable culture of drinking at my workplace, and I had promised that I would learn my lesson and implement the recommendations of the report, and then one of the heads of department under me appeared drunk on television, that very evening, in the actual workplace no less... by five past nine the next morning that person would be gone.

Personally i don't see how you'd get through a day in that workplace, in its current state, without being drunk on the job.. :wacko:

She can’t even stand up straight.
She keeps bobbing up and down which is a tell tale sign for me that she’s been drinking.
