No Gray Report This Week

[Stickybottle]

Speculation now that the report must be delayed as a result of the criminal investigation mounted today by the Metropolitan Police

Sky News claims it will definitely not be this week
Bbc report that it is unsure it will be published before Friday

How embarrassing for the government either way

Will Boris do as David Davis suggested before he is allowed to do further untold damage to his party ?

Off topic(but my thread anyway)
How are the relatives ?
Improving daily I hope ?

Cressida Dick has an axe to grind with Boris, otherwise I don't think that she would have instigated this enquiry.

Or maybe she realised that she is now compelled to act after Cummings made his press release about the Gray report yesterday ?
He really is holding all the aces and people have realised that they have to finally :
A. Do their jobs

or

B. Know that they will have to give a good account of their actions during the pandemic if impropriety is indicated

//How are the relatives ?//

Thanks for asking, sticky.

Nephew is still quite poorly but thankfully off oxygen now. They think he'll be in dock at least until the end of this week. His dad is still "under the weather" but seems to be recovering OK at home.

[Stickybottle]

Thanks for the update
Fingers crossed for both

BBC now claiming that the Met have no problem with the Gray report being published before they complete their enquiries

Hot potato ?

Is this clown seriously fit for office ? ?

Boris Johnson did not tell cabinet about the launch of a police probe into allegedly lockdown-breaching parties at No 10, leaving ministers to find out about it on their phones as they left this morning’s meeting.

The prime minister was informed shortly before the weekly meeting that Metropolitan Police Commissioner Cressida Dick would announce the investigation during her appearance before the London Assembly scheduled for 10am on Tuesday morning.

And the news was promptly leaked to the Guido Fawkes political gossip website, which published a report of the impending announcement at 9.28, just after ministers had assembled.

But Mr Johnson’s official spokesperson told reporters that the PM decided not to tell ministers, because the information was sensitive and it was not known at what point during the meeting Dame Cressida would drop her bombshell.

Now THAT is leadership ! Lol
Probably too busy looking around the room for his next scapegoat !
Pmsl

Sunny Dave, it was not aimed at you. Apologies as I can see it was not clear. I think you can probably see the problem now?

// No doubt the opposition will retort with :
The criminal or civil service one ? Lol//

criminal service - oh that will be the Downing st secretariat
ter daaah!

crim report will delay the civil service Gray report
altho generally I have never understood why...
and the police are today saying oooooo no need for that
and the secretariat is of course saying there must be a wait
