| Sadiq Khan on 12:21 - Feb 9 by Lohengrin | What you saw the other evening with Starmer and Lammy was a photo opportunity, deliberately staged. Be in no doubt whatsoever about that. We were deployed a few times to the Westminster environs years ago in response to heightened threat levels. By-the-by, that mostly involved swaggering around winking at the prettier interns...😊 But what I can tell you is that there is a guarded passageway, a tunnel, completely inaccessible to the public, that links Portcullis House to Parliament with cars permanently on stand-by to carry Ministers and Members to wherever they have to go. Starmer and Lammy were in the middle of that protest because they chose deliberately to put themselves there. It was a calculation, quite a good one as subsequent publicity has shown. It’s a game, Jim. All of it. |
I think it was the route they had to take. Reports have confirmed this. Whatever - given the fairly recent murders of MPs - its the words of Johnson that have put people in some danger, including the police officers. Weaponising Savile was deliberate and unforgivable. Johnson is no clown. Its a deliberate manipulation so people dont get to see who the real danger to the UK is. 🇬🇧. Johnson is only a patriot if being a patriot is all about self interest. I hope old Classic Dom will eat him. |  |

Deliberate manipulation? It was the frantic, panicked ejaculation of verbal diahorrea of an idiot floundering on the ropes desperately trying to throw something back and that was the first stupid thing that popped up in his protozoan brain. |  | |  |

Do you know what, you’ve just beaten me to the drop there. I was about to post something very similar. Killy, much like most of the commentariat, are giving Johnson way, way too much credit. He wasn’t “carefully recycling Fascist tropes,’ whatever that’s supposed to mean. He was just lashing out with the first thing that came into his head as he was getting hit from all directions. It was straight out of the playground not Machiavelli. |  |

I used to know an old soldier who lived in Sandy Lane on the Gower. Full of stories as you'd imagine, but he was quite insistent about a locked gate at the old Westminster tube station being the entrance to an underground command complex that he'd occasionally be required to discreetly guard as part of his duties. Also claimed that things got so bad at one point during the miner's strike that Martial Law was being seriously considered and a lot of military top brass were in residence there for a while preparing for it. |  |

This attestation that Boris is not a complete buffoon and is secretly a calculating genius cleverly manipulating people is a relatively recent phenomenon and goes against all observable evidence, yet I see people (albeit people like Kilkenny) argue it often. I think everyone who has ever met Johnson will happily testify yep he’s a complete idiot. I’ve never heard anything of the contrary. |  | |  |

I'm not addressing this to Kilkenny, as I know that he is not interested in reality... ...but to anyone reading Kilkenny's post who isn't far-left, especially the young and impressionable, those who are still able to think clearly...just know that the current deputy leader of the Labour party has called everybody who votes Tory "scum"...and if we were to hold everybody who ever voiced an opinion accountable for the actions of others then we would live in a world where all those of the Left who have been throwing around the insults of "racist" and the term "Islamaphobe" responsible for the murder of the Tory MP David Amess last year. |  |

So they are left-wing protestors, that have been used (cynically) by the Labour party to plant a story...a lie... and keep the pressure on Boris. That was my first instinct when I saw it, and there it is, laid out for us... ...and yet some will continue to push this bullshit as if we don't all know what happened. |  |

The fact is it waa prepared in advance Loh. We know this. Johnson's longstanding policy chief Munira Mirza asked him not to do it. Johnson did it. Mirza resigned as a direct result. She was concerned about Savile victims etc. Johnson did not give a damn. |  |

As far as I can see she didn’t call people who vote Conservative scum, her exact words were “We cannot get any worse than a bunch of scum, homophobic, racist, misogynistic, absolute vile … banana republic, vile, nasty, Etonian … piece of scum.” No reference there to voters. It’s not the first time she’s used the word either and it’s completely unacceptable. |  | |  |

“She was concerned about Saville’s victims.” That’s a hoot! When dealing with multiple liars, where to turn, Killy? Where to turn? Be under no illusions about Mirza, she’s cut from exactly the same mendacious cloth as her old boss. She hasn’t suddenly had a fit of conscience, she’s jumping ship as she sees it’s holed beneath the waterline. The next time you’ll see her will be hovering behind Sunak. Just see if it isn’t. |  |
