In addition, if politicians preach a certain sermon it is important that they understand it applies to them as well, and they should not be allowed to forget it, or indeed become comfortable about the job they are elected to carry out. In my opinion, there should be an independent cross party investigation to get to the bottom of this 'Christmas party' and if politicians are found to have been 'partying' then they should be dismissed and or resign. |

The public has a right in a democratic system, to know if the politicians elected by them to carry out work on their behalf actually know what they are doing, this includes the civil servants, so I salute the guy for having the b**** to do it, knowing very well that this is going to cost him his career, probably.

It seems that we need to get some decent plumbers in the country. Too many "leaks" to the BBC and other media outlets.

Huh...... What exactly are you referring to? The BBC is free and has a duty to report - it does not need to leak anything. If you are referring to the video having been leaked to the Mirror, surely it would have been leaked by someone who was at the event and perhaps had a moral moment? |

I am referring to all the "insiders" who "leak" information from all sorts of organizations (not just the government) to the media. A great deal of information is sensitive in more ways than one. If information needs to be released to the public, it needs to be done properly, via proper channels, so that it can be verified before just releasing what an "insider" thinks to be the correct version of events "that happened" or information "soon to be released". Often this "information" is incorrect or can be misinterpreted (as is often the case). National security can be breached or hindered.

So what you are saying is that all the things politicians, unscrupulous individuals, corrupt people and so on wish to keep hidden should be left hidden. Are you aware that protection for whistleblowing in the public interest is actually enshrined in law? It could actually have been a national security risk had the video about a certain politician doing naughty things with his advisor behind a closed door not been made public. Think about what leaks could have occurred and to whom if the vulnerability had been exploited by a glamorous Russian or Chinese agent. Last edited by MSS; 8th December 2021 at 17:50.. |

Not just being reported on the BBC but on other media as well.

All those dictators that the UK helped to depose would have been proud of certain sections of the forum.

Don't tell me what I am saying. End of conversation.
