Met police say they are “considering” new footage of a Christmas party at Tory HQ in December 2020.
Continuation of #partygate and pretty horrendous when you consider what was happening in the rest of the country.
The Met are only interested in arresting protesters that haven’t even started protesting yet and people with rape whistles, that the police actually gave them…
Give them a chance - the tapes only came out yesterday
There is a 20 minute clip on YouTube from Sophie Ridge where Michael Gove says that there is a photo from that party, which was handed to the police, back when they were doing the big investigation. From the photo - only TWO people were fined. Presumably the people who organised it - but surely everyone should have been fined, the signs are right there telling them to social distance in the bloody room that they are partying in. No-one can possibly say “Oh I didn’t know”. So why were only 2 of them fined? There are about 30 people in the photo, so the Met already knew about everyone involved in this party.
Its very much one rule for me another for thee. I can’t get over how brazen and obviously unapologetic they all are (even if they say the words)
It’s an absolute travesty the state of protest in this country
