Telegraph is breaking that Durham police are re-investigating beerandcurrygate, so if Starmer called on Johnson and Shunak to resign after being fined then presumably if he and/or Rayner are fined they would resign, oh dear , how sad, never mind

Starmer himself said the attendees were rotating through the kitchen to help themselves, i.e buffet style. Whoops

As more comes out this is what may be called "pant pi$$ingly funny "

Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance.

This grinning,holier than thou hypocrite,is finally to be investigated by the Poice and should now consider his position.

There is a little bit of chatter, interestingly from a couple of left-wingers albeit ones who are not best chuffed with Starmer, about there perhaps being a bit more going on with these Durham drinks. Talk of perhaps a late-night buffet and similar. Now in and of itself, then relative harmless but far more in line with what Johnson was fined for than just Sir Keir swigging back a cheeky little lager to wash down his chicken korma after a hard day on the cobbles.

"The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command." - 1984 - George Orwell.

The rules at the time said you weren’t to share food, you could eat your own food at work

So, as I recall, if this was a buffet then it shouldn’t have happened. They should each have ordered independently

But I do wonder what the new information is. Perhaps Rayner and Starmer did a Lady and the Tramp with a roti.

I agree

But the food rule was perfectly manageable if little known.

Everybody who has huffed and puffed about partygate and enjoyed the sanctimonious " resign " hypocrisy and lying of Starmer will now either keep quiet or come out with some claptrap as to why he shouldn't resign if he is fined ( and Rayner ). Simply to chirp Johnson hasn't resigned is not good enough.

When he is fined I shall call him Karma Starmer.

Humble pie korma anyone?

Diane Abbott has already said he should resign if fined, always liked her
