‘It’s my party and I’ll lie if I want to’ … is Sneer Drama wrong to snigger at boozing Boris?

When is having a beer with work mates – indoors during a pandemic lockdown – the right thing to do?

When you are Sir Keir Starmer it appears!

Yes, the simpering legal needle, that sanctimonious sap who trembles in Corbyn’s duffle of a shadow, was caught in photos boozing with staff members in an office.

It was a work meeting, he says smugly through his toothy smile and beneath his foppery of hair.

However, when naughty Boris – through his thin lips and his giant haystack of hirsuteness – said the same thing to excuse restriction-flouting drinks in the Downing Street garden, that pompous pious Smear Alarmer demanded his resignation.

But surely Boris was in a far safer environment to avoid spreading Covid than the stuffy room in Durham where the pious leader of the Opposition attended his!

Oh, and by the way, the number of people at Keir’s party seems to be going up.

The initial story was that it was just the Labour leader and a few colleagues enjoying a beer and a takeaway after a long day on the local election campaign trail.

Yesterday, however, Sir Keir admitted the ‘team’ around him comprised six people. Presumably also present were representatives of the constituency association, whose office it was.

How many in total, then?

Yes, there were multiple gatherings at Downing Street. But that doesn’t make Sir Keir’s soiree any more acceptable. Or him any less of a hypocrite.

And at least Boris has said he’s sorry … has Keir?

The Society says this – both are wrong, both should be going to a party that only serves humble pie.
