The Beth Rigby Sky news interview which I think has been pooled with other channels too.
She gives him a shoeing.

There no way they would have been wanking on about waiting for the report all weekend without knowing its a total stitch up. Boris sets the sphere of reference for the report. It'll just be a list of the party's that we already know about, she's not going to drawn an conclusions about if any rules have been broken, that's not going to be for her to say.
She spent most of her career advising how to avoid freedom of information request and how to destroy evidence, when she wasn't running a pub in bandit country!

To be fair, its the continual slippery torrent of lies to cover up the party/parties/work meetings which are pissing people off more.

But yeah, at a time where the Tories are literally stripping us of our rights with dubious bills and pouring our money (much of which is borrowed in our name) into mate's pockets, its infuriating that this is what people do care about.

I suspect it's less that people don't care about the hundreds of other things, and more that people see this as something which he can be nailed for.

The fact that the PM and his cabinet are STILL lying about what happened and who knew what demonstrates exactly how sorry they are about it.

In the past he's never been front and centre in the same way he is now, he has always been able to essentially go "what's that behind you!" then run away and stay out of the limelight until the news cycle moves on and forgets about his latest transgression. I honestly think that this is still his main strategy, and why he's delaying and waiting for the report. He's secretly hoping something will happen to distract the public for long enough.
Ironically, now that he has the one job that he always craved he has lost his only real defence mechanism. The fact that he has fucked off the person who gave him his dream job and Cummings is now actively looking to destroy him is the cherry on the icing atop the steaming pile of shit that is Boris Johnsons life.
Give it a couple of thousand years and the only way he'll be remembered is as precautionary fable that parents tell to children who display similar personality traits

They're just sorry that this is a rare something that tory voters are capable of turning on them over.
I think you are right but I also think that relatively recent (as opposed to previously gradual) chipping away at honesty and integrity in government has had a much bigger negative effect on the polls than the Torys have reaslied. This has just been the last straw for many IMHO.
Look at Barnard Castle. Sure, that made people angry for a while based on what Cummings did...but it was actually the lying and the coordinated cover up that made people most angry. Instead of learning from that, they just repeat the same old mistakes.

It's generally not going to work using emails...I work for a government department and regularly send emails to the Secretary of State's inbox - but they are not read by the SoS (and I woudn't expect them to be) - they are read by the Private Secretary and only passed on when deemed necessary by the PPS as part their daily "box". I imagine if incriminating hard evidence is anywhere, it would be a leaked Whatsapp chat - that seems to be how you get Boris.
To my mind, the fact Boris's PPS sent the invite as "we thought it would be nice to have some drinks in the garden" means it is obvious the email was as much from Boris as from the PPS. They would have had a meeting, discussed having a booze up in the garden and Boris will have told the PPS to send the note round.
Boris will continue to try to squirm and wriggle out of it, but it is clear as day to any fucker that he knew it was a party, he went to the party and it was probably his idea in the first place.
