Dominic Cummings, who previously served as Boris Johnson’s Chief of Staff until he was sacked in November 2020, has tweeted that “there’s lots of pictures of the parties which will inevitably get out”. The former Government adviser also said that most of the public’s attention should be focused on a party which he claims took place in the Prime Minister’s flat last year on November 13th. The Express has more.
Johnson has already lost one senior member of staff over the ongoing Christmas party scandal, and is facing calls to sack others – as well as to resign himself. But his former aide insists that the worst is yet to come.
The Government is under fire over reports of numerous parties held in Downing Street and elsewhere late last year, despite official Covid rules.
Video footage of the Prime Minister’s then-Press Secretary, Allegra Stratton, joking about a Christmas party in December 2020, just days after it is said to have taken place, emerged earlier this week.
This footage, featuring remarks Stratton said she would regret “for the rest of my days”, led to her resignation.
If footage from after the event has produced such a significant backlash, Downing Street will be horrified by the prospect of footage emerging from the party itself – or from any other party, from that matter.
That footage will emerge is, according to Cummings, “inevitable”.
Writing on Twitter, he said: “There’s lots of pictures of the parties which will inevitably get out.
“And invite lists beyond Number 10, to other departments…”
Some, but not all of the parties which are believed to have taken place in November and December last year will now be subjected to an official investigation.
In a separate post on Thursday, Cummings said “[our] focus should be [on the] actual party in the Prime Minister’s flat on November 13th”.
The party – or ‘gathering’, as officials would prefer to put it – which has been at the centre of this week’s controversy took place on December 18th.
The BBC has reported that Jack Doyle, Director of Communications at Downing Street, is believed to have been in attendance at the party.
He is accused of having given out a number of light-hearted awards amid party games, food and drink in an event that went on past midnight.

We need to know which, if any, journalists were in attendance … and if any were there, why they didn’t report on the breaking of the lockdown rules.
Another cheery christmas headline:
German senators vote to evict unjabbed homeless from metro platforms
What’s this slime ball up to? Who’s put him up to it? And why are we allowing these people to hold any power?
If you go to Uk Column’s 10th dec show at 26 mins they break this xmas party thing down. It looks like it was a set up to oust the fat scarecrow. The parties took place before the announcement on the 19/12/20.

New to me!
Although he is a spiteful bitch, Dominic Cummings is unlikely to be motivated by revenge in this instance. He is more likely to be motivated by an intention to replace Boris Johnson with a specific person, and to ride back into Number 10 as the said person’s puppeteer.
That person is called Michael Gove.
Oh please no.
He would be perfect for the times – a Chukky doll who knows nothing and turns everything he touches to shite.
This should not be suggested, not even in jest.
Anyone remember this from a year ago? “Do they know it’s Covid time?”

UK
Table shows the percentage of people (adults and children) with either no dose or no second dose of a Covid-19 injection in each of the four nations
30% of the population (adults and children) has either not received any dose or no second dose of a Covid-19 injection.
Almost 4.6 million people have received a first dose but have not yet received a second dose and almost 16 million have received no dose at all.
A total of 1,822 deaths now reported by the MHRA along with over 1.3 million injuries suffered by almost 400,000 people (an average of 3.3 injuries per person) following the experimental Covid-19 injections

You’ve posted the link for the population estimates (estimates?!) but not for the most interesting extract from the “UK Table [etc]” – well, I can’t see it anyway. Can you post the actual url please?
I trust Dom on this, he was there to see what was going on, he had already tested his eyesight.
One tactic I have learned which does get a reaction and strikes a good balance between making the point hard and being a bit light hearted with it is to call people who obey “GOOD GERMANS”.
You can say things like this in a shop: “we have a lot of Good Germans in this country”……and they get it. It makes them think and it can help to untap these hypnotised minds
I rather like this one.
Brilliant! So true it’s scary.
Beeboid loon Victoria Derbyshire.
“My brother’s triple-jabbed – the third one was Pfizer 3-4 wks ago. He’s just got covid & feels ‘rough’ & is isolating. Had a Xmas meal out with a load of mates last Friday – all of them vaccinated – 17 out of 21 of them have now tested positive.”
You have to laugh.
But just think how ill they would have been if they weren’t “vaccinated”…
“Shows it’s working. Get your booster!”
Yeah..it doesn’t bare thinking about.. ha!
Stay home, stay safe, get your jabs through the letterbox. It’s the only way.

Boris did say the jab is pointless.
a lot of meadya types are big users of columbian party powder so they might actually be at risk from covid.
Well at least it’s not as bad as Biden’s banana republic whereby the FBI does a dawn raid on a journalist who’s got a copy of his daughters pre election diary (you know the one who goes to Ukraine randomly)…
Whilst you’ve been distracted by the UK Govs. Christmas Party, PHS released a report confirming the Fully Vaccinated account for 9 in every 10 Covid-19 Deaths over the past 4 months
The latest Public Health Data shows that over the past four months the double / triple jabbed population have accounted for 6 in every 10 Covid-19 cases, 7 in every 10 Covid-19 hospitalisations, and 9 in every 10 Covid-19 Deaths.

Apparently, according to MTF, because it is not stratified as to age, it is worthless.
To most folks , however, it is pure unadulterated proof that this is a scam.
UK Column News – 10th December 2021 has an interesting take on this
If there is ever a government enquiry (inquiry?? I forget which) into any of this shit – which would be pointless as it would be the government investigating themselves again and will go on for years and no one will take any blame again – you already know what the outcome might be…
Lessons have been learned Next time anyone as much as sneezes, we must lock down quicker, harder, with spiky bits on and show the rest of the world that we can out-totalitarian-nightmare-it-up better than what they can. We’re talking North Korea on steroids this time Masks might stop any future pandemic before it happens, so let’s keep them As soon as any experimental, barely tested, potentially dangerous medicine becomes available, everyone must be forced to take it. Trials are a waste of time – we just don’t have time for them because it’s an emergency. We should do this even if there is no state of emergency To raise everyone’s spirits, we must all clap the NHS every Tuesday at 5pm and have a special edition of Strictly Come Dancing that only has (good looking) NHS heros in Anyone who thinks any of this is wrong should… Read more »
Or “Australia” as it’s otherwise know…
We are nowhere near the worst of this.
As for pictures emerging, anyone who believes any picture or video “evidence” in 2021 is a complete moron unaware of the wonders of technology.
Honestly, this whole “covid party blackmail” affair reminds me of the mode of operation of Jeffrey Epstein.

Dr. Peter McCullough is an academic internist, cardiologist, and a trained epidemiologist located in Dallas, Texas. He speaks with Bret regarding what a wise response to Covid would look like. Bookmarked discussion. Towards the end McCullough discusses the withdrawal of his cardiology paper and the resultant lawsuit against Elsevier.
McCullough heroic as usual
He mentions that the background rate for myocarditis in under fifties in the US is 650 annually.
The VAERS data is showing 11 thousand cases, massively over background rate.
This is all part of a psyop to nudge people further towards embracing the jabs and restrictions through indignant virtuism (if there is such a word) by publicly shaming the rule breakers, while at the same time distracting the hapless population from the next sinister governmental step towards totalitarianism. The timing of this “leak” is no accident.
The tunes they danced too.
Thanks Encierro – gave me a laugh today!!
The stupidity of this coverage is emblematic of the crass stupidity of the general public on NPIs. Outrage at the breaking of rules, the one rule for “them” and another for “us”. “Them” simply understand that the restrictions and lockdowns are simply to placate “us” and are for drama and have zero impact on the course of the virus and if “us” actually understood that “us” would ignore the rules as well. Instead of a eureka moment we get hand wringing and calls for heads to roll. The “us” who love and crave these controls simply don’t have a working brain cell. To be fair “them” did the brainwashing in the first place and just thought WTF, no point trying to undo that now so we’ll just crack on and give “us” what we want.
They’re enjoying their Downing Street bubble, probably laughing about the next best mandate and watching the sheep follow it

I don’t understand why any ones making a fuss over this, it won’t change anything & it won’t be the end of Johnson.
In fact, for anyone who opposes lockdowns, vaccines or any corona mitigation measures, keep banging on about it just legitimizes the official narrative.
If you’re still surprised at politicians & civil servant’s hypocrisy, & contempt for the rest of us, where have you been all your life?
Let say for a second the scandal forces Johnson out, what do you think will replace him? The liberal on the left? Or the liberal on the right? Maybe the centrist liberal?
I sort of agree, but at the same time I think this could be the beginning of the end for Johnson. Plenty of heads have rolled because they didn’t obey the nonsense regulations of the moment, why not the PM’s? But as you say, what kind of creature would replace him? For a fleeting moment I thought Sunak might be a better bet, at least (so I thought) he doesn’t want the economy to plunge over a cliff of his own making, but now I’m not so sure…these toerags will be sitting pretty come what may, they are already millionaires.
Maybe.
But would you want that cold eyed bastard Gove.
The best argument for abortion I’ve ever heard.
worst case scenario
No that is Hunt. With the CCP agent wife.
I’d forgotten he existed
No one who has worked in the NHS for a decade or more hasn’t.
I suspect this is just another psychological tactic to release steam from the anger at future restrictions. We are being played like a fiddle.
It’s amazing Johnson has stayed this long, he’s never come across as the kind of person with the stamina needed to fight any battle to the end.
If Johnson goes, it’s because he wants out!
Since Sunak signed us up to the CBDCs and the NWO with all the other globalists banksters I would prefer he was kicked out the window straight into the Thames
I think you are missing the key consequence of all of this. Yes, all of us know and have known for a very long time, about the hypocrisy and contempt for plebs, BUT plenty of plebs are being woken up by the continuing drip-feed from all these scandalous happenings.
Have to say I don’t have much faith of the unwashed masses rising up in rebellion, most of them can’t even lift their heads for a few minutes to look away from their phones.
Throw your smartphone away!
It needs to be someone who’s good at making cock-ups.
The political class has absolutely no shortage of suitable candidates…
“The former Government adviser also said that most of the public’s attention should be focused on a party …”
… as opposed to Iran being on the brink of developing nuclear weapons.
Nuclear weapons are about the only thing that can protect Iran from becoming the next Syria or Afghanistan.
Careful there.
Much more of this thing called truth and you will be on the terrorist list thingy.
I don’t much care about the Iranian regime, but it inevitably results in innocent civilians dead, millions of refugees & more global terrorism, so really my concern is the consequences of western violence.
That said, i’m sure when Israel bombs Iran’s nuclear facilities it will leave a huge radioactive no go zone anyway, so Iran looks fucked either way.
Iran has been “on the brink of developing nuclear weapons” for half a century:
Iran’s Ever Imminent Nukes: A History of Hysteria
That’s as true today as it was when it was written 11 years ago.
In reality, Pat Buchanan’s analysis is probably correct:
“Why does Iran not already have the bomb?
The answer seems a simple one. While the Iranians have the knowledge, capacity and experience to build a bomb, they have, like Japan, Brazil and South Korea, elected to forgo the option, as the risks inherent in an Iranian bomb are greater than any probable rewards.
Not only has the ayatollah declared atomic weapons immoral, but it is difficult to see what Iran would gain from testing a nuclear weapon.
Tehran’s great foe, Israel, has an arsenal of nuclear weapons with the ability to deliver them by air, submarine-based cruise missile or ballistic missile. And a nuclear Iran would soon lead to a nuclear-armed Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Egypt, Sunni nations all. How would that benefit Tehran?”
Biden’s Full Plate – Ukraine, Taiwan, Tehran
Is there meant to be a police officer on the door at Downing Street? If so then that officer should also be sacked!
https://twitter.com/PaulPag46852754/status/1468876553400602626
A simple way to clear this up would be for the Met Police to check Diplomatic Protection briefing logs for the evening in question re functions being held and interview the Officers on duty to ascertain what they saw heard concluded.
Cressida Dick was herself on Westminster Bridge clapping for the NHS without a face mask – anyone remember? She should arrest herself for spreading The Virus.

“Lock ’em down hard-but not me” Cummings has just gone up a few points in my Hypocrisy Best of Year lists.
With this sort of cockroach in the “Corridors of Power”, it’s not surprising that his superbreeder fellow inmate is how he is.
just think, if Gollum replaces Johnson we could have Dom back!
Yes: it is certainly NOT true that my enemy’s enemy is my friend!
FFS why can’t the fucking sheep put two and two together.
Why were these cretins having a party, and unmasked ffs – despite the oh so deadly covid raging across mankind and killing everybody.
Maybe they know more than they’re letting on.
Clue – it isn’t that deadly you morons.
I despair.
But I will hold the Line.
Lol what you’ve written here sounds like my “Inner Dialogue” a lot of the time !
Mine too – if you add a few swear words!
Loads of examples like that and still it doesnt click
I’ve been saying this since the first “expert” (Ferguson?) was caught with his pants down, breaking lockdown rules to go and see his lover on the other side of town. yet still the don the mask, and line up for thir jabs.
If I was any good at graphics I would design a poster with something like “Careless Rules Cost Lives” – with respectful acknowledgements to Fougasse.
Anyone care to take that on???
