    Goodlaw Project article on the initial refusal of any Partygate investigation:
    https://goodlawproject.org/news/partygate-met-police-investigate/

    "Their justification is itself remarkable. It includes reference to the fact that:

    • “Downing Street… have already stated that Covid rules were followed”
    • “anyone who was at the gathering would be entitled to refuse to answer questions because of the privilege against self-incrimination”
    • because the Cabinet Office was looking into possible breaches there was no need for the Met to investigate as well."

    They said that they didn't do it and they're investigating themselves? Really? ****ing hell. <doh>

    Luckily we don't have a clueless ****wit in charge who already advertised what our military manoeuvres are going to be at a press conference while there's also a Lassa fever outbreak back home that is no doubt being handwaved as a couple of aspirin and you're fine

    ...oh wait, I got that wrong didn't I?

    It seems Johnson has a questionnaire from police. Time to pack I think.

    Since when has a questionnaire been part of a police investigation ? Last time I had a brush with the law was 1977 on a camping holiday in Ilfracombe, after a day on the very cheap very very strong cider me and a couple of mates were chucked in the back of a police transit ,met with a hail of boots from the local boys and dropped off 5 miles outside town , all we were doing was having a party , Boris and his mob will be able to sit round a table with their lawyers and make up the perfect story

    He's got 50 to coordinate with and many of them will have been fired. If he lies and gets caught out it is obstruction of Justice. That could be custodial.

    Questionnaires are generally confined for eliciting information from potential witnesses to crime, not the criminals. <doh>

    If there is justification in this instance, I can see no reason for not making the blank document public, to at least see the direction being taken. It would provide much needed transparency to a process that stinks of corruption.

    As a dog lover I wouldn't want to risk poisoning the poor animal.
