The Society welcomes the fact that Durham police are to re-examining Sir Keir Starmer‘s beer and pizza ‘party’ at a constituency stop-off while on the campaign trail at the height of Covid fears in the UK.
To the Labour leader, Boris’s own party-time, for which he was fined by the Met Police, has taken up more of his discussion time than looking in what to do about Putin and the Ukraine.
Yet the simple truth is, everything he regularly accuses Mr Johnson of, he did himself in front of a window during the ban on indoor socialising.
The allegations from this ‘little window on his world’ were swiftly dropped. But rules are rules and laws are laws and you’re not supposed to break them – so if Durham police were right to ignore Keir’s beer time, then the Met must be wrong to fine other politicians.
A misinterpretation of the law often becomes a miscarriage – and many people actually feel that what happened to Boris and his band of party people is scandalous and unacceptable. Why is there a 100pc difference in the way things are being treated?
