To think if an employee got a blow job at work from girlfriend they'd be sacked....

[BadAtMaths2]

You'd think....

£100,000 blow job? Interview for a £100,000 job?

Not forgetting Jennifer Arcuri.

If I'd walked in on someone, it wouldn't bother me, and I wouldn't tell anyone, out of respect for their privacy. And that would be true even if it were someone I didn't support politically.

The idea that Boris could be blackmailed over his sex life seems fairly far-fetched.

Given the hours politicians work, and the variable nature of the job, the idea that someone using government time or locations for their private life should be punished seems ridiculously petty.

Well, if were in works' time and they were using works' electricity for the dry then yes. get your blow job at the hairdresser's like I do😑

I can't actually find this story on any reputable site.

Hello tory HQ

Good grief.

I read some of the other thread and I feel really naive as I had no idea it was referring to Bozza

How terribly grown up and civilised of you.

So according to you, then Conservative MP - now ex - Neil Parish was perfectly ok too, watching Tractor Porn in the House of Commons chamber, was he?

Quite!

The journalist who wrote the article for The Times stands by his sources, as does Lord Ashcroft who wrote the book, as does Private Eye. Private Eye has been going for 61 years, since 1961 - is that not good enough for you?

And you can't get much more reputable than Mumsnet. It's on here.

Sadly, this is how it is.

I presume it was Gavin Williamson (now Lord Williamson) who walked in on them.

I’m now at the point where I’m thinking, “I wish Jeremy Hunt would take over”, and I loathe Jeremy Hunt, but at least we wouldn’t be facing disgusting personal revelation after disgusting revelation. The prime minister’s private life is a distraction and an embarrassment. He’s got to go.

How far back do people really need to keep going to find 'dirt' on him?

How does Carrie giving him a BJ years ago really affect the job he's doing today?

Irrespective of what you think of him, juicy/gossipy details from years ago being plastered all over the media isn't helping our country one bit.

and NO, not Tory HQ. Just bigger worries about Ukraine/cost of living/strikes/etc. to give a shit about BJ getting a BJ years ago.

I suspect even his wife at the time gives less of a fuck about it than people here getting their dander up!

Meh. The guy does sackable offences more or less daily and no one can touch him.

Also, the Gavin Williamson-get-knighted-for-seemingly-bugger-all story makes a fair bit more sense now....

🙄

Possibly. Things you're not familiar with are sometimes unsettling & you need to run to tell someone about them.

I'm a bit surprised that BoJo didn't take a lesson from what Bill Clinton went through after his office BJ came to light.

Yes, it comes under "gross misconduct" I once actually had to sack someone for this, but not the boyfriend, the delivery guy🥴

Because it's another example of what on the face of it looks like straightforward corruption - seeking to secure advantage for his mistress whilst in high office.

Even if you don't care about the morality of a man shagging his mistress in the office whilst married and depending on timelines married to someone undergoing cancer treatment then abuse of high office should still matter.

If that kind of behaviour no longer matters then we have the politicians we deserve.

Ooh I was rather naughty at work but this was thirty odd years ago and it was a very relaxed place to work. I came out of a colleague’s office (who I fancied like crazy) with rather a glow, my boss walked passed me and just said grinned and said something like ‘oh yes’ (in a ‘I see’ kind of tone). No security risks or anything. Happy days but everything’s so serious and dull nowadays😁

Matt Hancock was caught on camera and reported on the front page of a tabloid - no opportunity to cover it up, trivialise it and pretend it didn't happen.

There is a very good episode of Yes Minister on exactly this theme 😂

This is appalling and utterly unfair on all the staff who could have walked in on them.

No wonder they thought they could get away with parties in No10 during the pandemic. They were used to people covering up revolting behaviour in the office for them.

😂 this would explain A LOT!

I find it quite remarkable that no one needs to invent scurrilous scuttle but about this man, to discredit him. He just gives us everything anyone could ask for- corruption, misjudgement, lying, inadequacy, infidelity, inappropriate behaviour, abandoning a seriously ill wife, illegitimate children ...

What has he not yet done in the 'unsuitable for office' stakes?
