The tweeting of small birds. I'd significantly lowered my expectations much sooner than that - it's just interesting to see how far down they can get.

It certainly smells.
(Nah, don't think they'd get an injunction on that, especially as stuff was already out there.)
It belies the impression I'd been getting that Murdoch was going cold on Johnson. Dunno about Daily Mail.
Some money somewhere may have been changing hands but it's a fair bet it won't have been Johnson's own.

It would seem so. But what's Johnson to them, and why? Do they still reckon he's the best bet for keeping the Tories in power?

More like it's other types of pressure, kompromat of one sort or another over one person or several.

It can only be that, I think. I mean not only has this been clearly spiked but the claim in the book that it is based on hasn't been widely circulated either.

I do wonder whether this is a similar situation to Trump, in that he's managed to criminalize their relationship and now they fear what would happen (edit: to them) if he was removed in an uncontrolled way. Certainly the bung they got (and IIRC are still getting) over COVID doesn't pass the smell test.
Was supposed to post this yesterday but it slipped my mind

Women being chaperoned when meeting with Johnson in private was foreign office policy . Else. Send a man . Preferably 2 people for meetings to ensure there was a witness that Johnson had been advised of certain matters he would invariably deny later. The man is a seedy spoilt rapey cunt - and those are terms I hate using in any context

At Oxford apparently he had a reputation for being NSIT, and I can't quote that source either. Funny how these rumours cluster round certain people.

I am assuming that means ‘not safe in total’.
Is that what it means?

It's tempting to think that the superinjunction bubble has burst with so many high-profile ones backfiring horrendously, but then of course by definition we don't know how many successful superinjunctions there are.
The whole thing still baffles me. Unless it's a matter involving the protection of vulnerable individuals, surely all court proceedings should be a matter of public record.

Thank you.
I didn’t make the connection I should’ve as I have hardly ever been able to stretch to many taxi journeys.
It's a thing from back in the day with debs and chaperones and whatnot. (Think I maybe came across it in one of Nancy Mitford's books?)

The problem arises when a woman shares a cab ride with a man who's supposedly chivalrously seeing her safely home en route to his own gaff when he'll pay the driver. Once away from the party and in the intimacy of the back seat the monster pounces. It's a thing of the past, but was still a thing among Johnson's Oxford set.

Fuck it, it's fine.
Having his trousers like that must be a deliberate choice. Like he's fucking rich, he could quite easily get a tailor to make him a suit that actually fits. He's deliberately decided to look like that. I have no idea why.
