    Couldn't happen to a nicer borough (I used to work in a shop in Kensington and the local well-heeled Kensington people are the scum of the Earth for the most part).

    Someone email Death, quick, see if he can fit a couple of dozen in, like.

    Boris Johnson Accused of Hypocrisy Over Speech to Packed Tory Meeting - Bloomberg

    At least 50 Tory members of parliament crammed into the parliamentary meeting room on Wednesday evening for the meeting, despite a sign on the door warning only 29 should be allowed in to limit the spread of coronavirus. And Johnson even commented on how he wanted people to be packed together in the same way by Christmas, according to two people at the meeting.

    While some observed social-distancing rules that individuals should be more than a meter apart by taking seats that were spaced out, later arrivals “crammed” together at the back of the room to hear Johnson, according to three people present, who asked not to be identified because the meeting was private.
    Half an hour after this meeting:

    People are human and are likely to forget every now and then. To have to issue an official apology every time is a bit silly.

    It's not like he was infected and violated quarantine to drive to another area of the country to potentially spread the infection to elderly family members and the general public and refused to apologise.
    Or went around a hospital shaking hands with everyone, including Covid patients, and then boasting about it.

    And then ending up in ICU.
