It doesn't really deserve the great song and dance the media are making of it. Maybe his instagram feed is only viewed by journalists and his mum?

Three randoms, a couple of journalists and his mum.

Journalists frequently now get their news from randoms who re-post on social media.

I didn't know Rishi had a fetish for tractor porn too. But that's the point - when other people are doing things like those why is this getting column inches? If anything it distracts from what actually matters.

I was listing all the stuff he could do that was worse that other members of his party have done while in parliament.

The only other thing he did on the list is turn up to a lockdown party (looking very uncomfortable and nerdy) and get fined.

If this is the worst dirt they can dig on the PM, we're doing well. I suppose the press have got so used at easy opportunities to smear the PM they need to keep it going. This is like when a TV show gets into the 6th series and they can't really think of anything.

The media are pissed he's not Boris.

I think what's at issue here is that when putting a piece out on social media not wearing a seat belt can send the wrong message. It is irresponsible and as there's public evidence, along with an admission, he ought to be fined for it.

Scraping the barrel really. What next, crossing the road in the wrong place?

£100-£500 fine, sadly not any penalty points yet but hopefully soon.

sadly not as high as Covid fines

None story and Rishi has apologised and will pay whatever fine comes his way but his opponents will use it as a tar brush because they have very little else to use or are too stupid to find something more damning. The police seem to be less keen investigate Labour politicians. I don't care if people make the same mistakes I might make and pay for them.

You'll be up in court yourself for using racist language.

Scraping the barrel really. What next, crossing the road in the wrong place?

Working remotely for a tax haven accused of corruption while suppose to be voting in Parliament?

Being dodgy with your tax affairs and having to have a quiet settlement with HMRC to pay the tax you owe?

Setting up a company that buys PPE that is completely unfit for purpose in multiple ways while being a Tory Peer in the Lord and being taken to Court over it?

Challenging Steve Bray to a boxing match?

Using language that incites racial hatred?

Sexually assaulting your staff members?

Watching porn in parliament?

Getting fined for breaking Covid lockdown rules for partying or having an affair while telling everyone else including the Queen (RIP) to not mix with other people?

None story

sadly half of the deaths last year involved car occupants not wearing seatbelts.

Don't care much about the adults they know what they are doing and are cleaning the gene pool of their stupidity.

As well as taking the head off of the person in the front seat, who is probably wearing a seat belt. I always make sure anyone behind me is wearing one, for my own safety.

You mean like none of the far right press tore into Diane Abbot for drinking a can of GnT on a bus?

As for your link to the accident, where both parties exchanged details and the politician went to a police statement to give a statement, your headline doesn’t reflect what happened, but we’ve come to expect that.

[vetran]

Apparently not, they already have children.

who says they are their children?

If you're not willing to obey the law on seatbelts, what other laws are you willing to break?

Party! Party! Party!

(Though to be fair he looked like a nerd at a party)
