Hello Tory MPs.
You may be feeling very virtuous after voting for the #PartyGate report yesterday.
But you're not fooling anyone. You don't get to claim to be suddenly in favour of integrity when you were perfectly happy to support Johnson at the time he was lying.
Waiting until you get caught before you come out in favour of integrity doesn't count.

At 16:37 on 19_06_23 Hansard will record without qualification, correction, or retraction that Thangam Debbonaire said "Boris Johnson lied."
That is a first.

Apologies if this has already been chosen and I've missed it.

It's fucking insane how addicted corporations have become to #tracking everything you do, everything you look at, everything you type, everything you think about.
They've gotten so brazen about it. Shit like this - the #Microsoft #Edge browser routing every image through some "AI enhancer" that also tracks what you're viewing - is now a default setting. I suppose at least people who use Edge can opt out, for now, if they know to.
We need #privacy legislation so badly.

OK, so the Privileges Committee found that Johnson had not only lied to Parliament, he'd also lied to the Committee.
Now, maybe I'm remembering this wrong, but didn't he testify to the Committee under oath?
I wonder if the Committee will have the balls to refer him to the police for perjury?
I wonder if there will be cake…
