Boris Johnson’s rule – breaking and subsequent fine over the Partygate fiasco has understandably created heated debate.
Johnson has breached his own lockdown regulations and thus
fallen foul of the law.
Sir Roger Gale, a strong critic of Johnson, said it would be
a “gross self-indulgence” to try to unseat the Prime Minister when the UK was
involved in the defence of Ukraine against Russian aggression.
Meanwhile the former Conservative minister Edwina Currie has
arrogantly told the press that she did not care if Boris Johnson broke the
ministerial code by knowingly misleading parliament about the No 10 parties.
However, one Tory MP has broken ranks and called for the PM
to step down.
The MP for Amber Valley, Nigel Mills, stated: “I don’t think
the PM can survive or should survive breaking the rules he put in place…we have
to have higher standards than that of people at the top. He’s been fined, I
don’t think his position is tenable.”
So where does Southport’s MP, Damien Moore, stand on this
latest humiliation to the Tory Party – is he right behind blundering Boris,
sitting on the fence, or will he demand the PM’s resignation?
Damien Moore’s office has recently defended the disclosure
that he has the second-highest expenses of the UK’s 650 MPs.

How low can standards get in the UK before politicians do the
right and honourable thing in such instances?
