Check your facts Duckie. The Home Office is responsible for the recruitment of the commissioner and Dick resigned because she did not have the confidence of the Mayor’s office, something which surely you are onside with? Instead of posting the type of “pony” that appeals to my daily stalker (still finding time to read this forum despite supposed to be “doing business” in Denmark) perhaps you would be better off doing some research so that, at least, your posts will be more informed rather than the usual knee jerk reactionary rubbish.

PS. Is you problem with Khan based on the fact that he is both a “lefty” and a Muslim? Surely a double whammy in your book. I am guessing so because you do not spend a second of your time criticising Johnson or any of the dodgy cabinet members in the Tory party despite shedloads of evidence that they lie and are grossly corrupt and incompetent.

@campbellclaret

Johnson (having spent weeks blaming civil servants) saying his defence rests in the determination he felt to respect civil servants. Hard not to think of Cummings’ statement that Johnson lies so effortlessly and so often he no longer knows when he is lying or telling the truth’

 

ALASTAIR CAMPBELL
@campbellclaret
Remember -Johnson did not intentionally or knowingly mislead his readers when he was sacked for lying as a journalist,never intentionally or knowingly misled his wives and families when he betrayed them and has never ever made a promise that he knew would not be kept. Yeah right

I corrected my statement. I am still not aware that calling someone an immigrant is a hanging offence given that we are all immigrants at some point in our family history. I don’t have a problem with Priti Patel because she is a Tory. I have a problem with her because of her inhumane policies. If you bother to engage your brain when reading my posts that would be obvious to you.

So, after sitting through 3 hours 20 minutes of Johnson in full Johnson mode, what is absolutely clear is that he has no meaningful relationship with the truth. The truth is whatever he decides to believe at any given moment. Whatever you think about Campbell he is 100% spot on in his assessment of Johnson (despite Batman’s attempt to deflect attention from Johnson by turning it on Campbell).

Harmon made a perfect point in summing up, if you are doing 100mph and can see on the speedo that you are doing 100mph, do you need someone else to confirm the speed you are doing?  His argument that a leaving do was an essential meeting at work fell apart when asked if he would have said that on tv in the guidance. Of course he would have said no then but he waffled on in an embarrassing attempt to backtrack.

Sadly though, the point remains that whilst people were not allowed to be with their loved ones to say their goodbyes, staff in no 10 were able to get drunk and shag in cupboards on Johnson’s watch. There are still people who would have this dreadful man back as PM, that’s how low this country has sunk.

I should add that the most bizarre moment for me was watching a congenital liar swear on the bible that he will tell the truth.

Come off Twitter for a couple of hours, stop fretting about transsexuals and listen to last week's episodes of  the podcast "The Rest is Politics". It is Campbell and Rory Stewart tackling the events that led to the Iraq War and it's aftermath.

Campbell is certainly not given an easy time by Stewart. He defends himself robustly even if he is not that convincing. 

You may not agree with him but after listening to the podcast I would be surprised if you are still "utterly stunned".

As I said, the Home Secretary is responsible for appointing the commissioner of the Met. If you have done your research you will know that Mayor Khan was not at all happy with Cressida Dick and is not happy with the current situation with the Met. This is the responsibility of the police, not Khan.

So you would like the return of Johnson as London Mayor? I am sure Londoners will have been delighted to learn that Johnson used some of their money to fund his adulterous affair with Jennifer Acuri. He was also responsible for closing down many fire stations but I guess Londoners weren’t bothered about that either. Apparently the vast majority of the success of the London Olympics was down to the hard work of others too despite him taking the credit.I didn’t realised that you lived in London though so you clearly know best.

Delightful to watch the ERG and the husk they ransacked, UKIP, destroying each other as the NI vote passes without incident. Only 22 voting against is pathetic and just has beens such as Truss, Rees-Mogg, Francois, Patel and other irrelevant fringe people. My favourite moment is Steve Baker denouncing Boris as a ‘Pound Shop Farage’ which also drew an angry response from Farage himself.

Boris getting destroyed by Bernard Jenkin was hilarious. Anyone who thinks he is coming back as PM on here must also believe Lawrie is coming back for a third spell as manager in the summer.

The adults are slowly gaining control again. There’s still a lot of children in the cabinet - Coffey, Braverman, Raab, Donelan - but today was a good day in restoring some order and common sense albeit a long way to go. Starmer now needs to finish off the hard left as well who are on the ropes with Corbyn isolated.

Strange,  because when Kay Burley puts it to him that he’s ultimately responsible for the met, that he’s basically the elected police and crime commissioner of London he agrees. He then goes on to say he takes “full responsibility” for police performance in London. 
 

Interesting, that you know more about a man’s job, than the bloke actually doing it. Perhaps that’s why he’s so bad at it, he doesn’t know what he is and isn’t responsible for. Of course the alternative is he fully knows what he’s responsible for, and you’re wrong and full of pony.

Let us try this one more time as you are obviously struggling with it. The Home Secretary is ultimately responsible for the police in the UK. The Home Secretary is ultimately responsible for the recruitment of the commissioner of the Metropolitan Police.

Do you accept that Mayor Sadiq Khan, as the Lord Mayor of London is probably quite a busy man in his day job? So much so that he probably doesn’t have time to run the Met Police on a day to day basis? Do you accept that he probably leaves that to the Commisioner of the Met Police?

Do you accept that he didn’t get on particularly well with Cressida Dick? Do you think that was because they were great friends and he thought she was doing a great job? Is it remotely possible that they didn’t get on because he didn’t think she was doing a good job and that he was putting pressure on her to change things?

The Casey Report says that he and the commissioner have a disfunctuonsl relationship. Do you think that is because Khan thinks Rowley is doing a great job or because he is not happy with the Met and is pushing for changes?

Sadiq Khan is a Muslim, agreed? Do you think that he is happy that the Met have been found to be institutionally racist yet again? Do you think that, not once, he has sat down with the Commissioner and asked what they were doing about it?

How embarrassed are you that Labour are now coming across as the party for law and order rather than your Tories? (And before you say that is pony, Starmer said more today about they way forward than Braverman ever has. In fact she even went as far as playing down the severity of the Bailey report the other day).

Having read your posts for many years I am now at the point with you where I have to invoke Godwin’s Law. Your constant support for the pathological liar, Boris Johnson, and the nasty, racist Little Englander, Nigel Farage and the fact that you are happy to turn a blind eye to the sort of behaviour amongst polititians that most decent people find abhorrent, leads me to believe that, had you been resident of Germany in the 1930’s, you would have been a fully paid up card carrying member of the Nazi Party.

Not once have I seen you call out Johnson for his behaviour. In fact you say you would have him back as London mayor despite everything we know about him and his behaviour. 
If anyone calls out far right agitators like Tommy Robinson, Katie Hopkins etc, you attack them and never a word of criticism about them or their conduct.

Whenever you refer to people of a different country you have to use words like Mick rather than Irish or Sweaty rather than Scottish.Your language and attitude is still rooted in the 1970’s to the extent that I think you much spend your evenings watching reruns of Jim Davidson, Bernard Manning and Love Thy Neighbour. You probably sit there laughing with Alf Garnett rather than at him.

To finish, children in London have cleaner air to breath thanks to the work of Sadiq Khan yet to you that is not a good thing. Sadiq Khan is not responsible for the financial cuts made in the Criminal Justice System over the last 13 years yet you lay the blame at his feet. Anyone who has worked in the CJS over the last 13 years will tell you that the problems are down to cuts in resources. I know you will have a problem believing that a right wing government has gone soft on crime, just as Boris Johnson can’t believe that he has done anything wrong over Partygate etc. it goes with the territory. It is all the fault of Lefty Lawyers, Pinkos, immigrants, liberals, LBGT, the Unions. Nothing is ever the fault of the Government, just as we have seen over the years with other authoritarian regimes and are witnessing first hand with Putin.

Sorry, one more thing before I leave you. Remind me again what Boris Johnson said when Putin rolled into the Crimea. Try as I might I cannot find anything remotely calling Putin out for his actions from Boris Johnson. Could it be then perhaps that his later attempt to be a poster boy for Ukraine support was more to do with his ratings in the polls than genuine concern for the Ukraine? Surely not! It doesn’t really matter because his type can do no wrong in your eyes as long as he keeps throwing red meat in your direction.

[badgerx16]

Just for clarity; Boris Johnson said at the time that Russia's annexation of Crimea was due to the EU's policies and interference.

Sorry for the late reply, I was reading your essay.

 

Let us try this one more time. Khan stated on Sky news that he takes “full responsibility “ for the Met, & accepts he is effectively the elected police & crime commissioner of London. Why does he do that, why doesn’t he listen to you and deny any responsibility? Is it because he’s a decent bloke & doesn’t want The Home Sec getting more clog, or is it because the Mayors of London, Greater Manchester & West Yorkshire have the role as part of their functions. One thing for sure, you’d be blaming Boris if he was still London Mayor.

Khan needs to get a grip of serious crime in London and get a grip on the Met. The fact he acknowledges it’s his responsibility is refreshing and honest, perhaps you could take a leaf out of his book. 
 

I await you long boring reply……..

Having sat through the whole proceedings I did wonder whether he had managed to bullshit and blag his way out of another mess. That moment in QT when you expected at least a few hands to go up but none did though gave hope that maybe even the most gullible have now finally seen through his act. The likes of Rees-Mogg and Mad Nad will continue to fight to the end for their messiah but hopefully their loyalty to the worst PM in living history will finish their careers in politics too. It has taken far too long but it does look now, thankfully, that the man is finished in politics. For those who begrudge paying the licence fee, that moment on QT was worth it on its own.

Some of those committees can be engrossing if you have nothing better to do I would put watching Question Time as the bigger waste of time.
