There is one rule for the PM and a different one for people lower down the ladder (Dominic Lipinski/PA)

Far from exonerating our dishonest prime minister, the fines given to his minions show how incompetent the Metropolitan Police was in its Partygate investigations.

It beggars belief that even after Cressida Dick left, it is still complicit in its incompetence and further proves that there is one rule for the PM and a different one for people lower down the ladder – especially when he was apparently the host on several occasions, and other party hosts have received fines totalling thousands of pounds. No wonder he carries that smug smile under the mop. One can only hope that Sue Gray’s report will show the truth and not be another whitewash. Events have proved that to be a member of the Conservative Party one must be invertebrate and conscience-free.
