What's of interest is that it's front page news in the Mail on Sunday; hardly the voice of the left or even the centre ground. There are 3 possibilities..
1. The Mail on Sunday has changed it's colours... unlikely.
2. It's true.... possibly
3. The rightwing press have finally worked out Handjob is a W*nker and a complete liability and have decided it's time to brief against him..... In my view, quite likely.
 
Also it doesn’t mean that it didn’t happen either.
And why would someone make it up? And then dismiss it as he said it as a joke?

Like I said, believe what you will, but I'd be amazed if that was said, I mean seriously why would he say it, I just dont see it

Indeed, it takes a very special incompetence for a Tory minister to alienate the Fail and its' ilk.

Perhaps, just possibly, because he’s a ****ing idiot? I find that quite plausible, considering everything we know about him (by which I mean, we know he’s a member of Boris Johnson’s cabinet).

He may be but I think more likely the press pushing firmly with the pressure on him and others.
 
You can believe what you want, I'm just saying we dont always need to believe it. Doesn't mean it happened just cos someone reported it. I did hear that apparently, sometimes not everything that is reported, is true...
I did hear that, apparently, sometimes, not everything that government ministers say is true. There are, of course many verifiable examples but I can't be arsed to find links.

Yeah think we've already covered his Jabbo. Maybe try the doctors, see if they can give you something for that 'Last Word Syndrome' you may be suffering from :emoticon-0105-wink:

Only the last word if you have nothing of value to add. Re medication a pre prandial G&T, a robust red with lunch rounded off with whatever aged spirit I fancy does the job for me.

Yeah your right. As Trump says it's "fake news" when confronted with a truth he doesn't like.

Stop making excuses for the bunch of tossers running this country.

Try not telling me what to do, yeah.

I’m not saying people in politics dont lie, of course they do. But just perhaps not everything that is written, by our press, in this country, is a lie. But that wouldn’t fit your blame won’t agenda, would it.

Think I’d be sick drinking that cocktail, i can never mix my drinks :emoticon-0119-puke:
 
It's quality not quantity I'm not drinking a bucket of each and plenty of tasty solids.

Yeah I get that, and they sound lovely in isolation for me, but quality over quantity is the order of the day for me. I've had a Bollinger in the fridge for 18 months that work gave me, but my wife is T total so waiting for the right moment!

I'm not sure keeping the Bolly in the fridge for that long is a good idea you don't want to be using it on yer chips.
