For me that is bollocks. If he hasn't the bandwidth to realise what he was doing was illegal without someone telling him, he should be nowhere near a responsible job.

Wish our brief wasnt wasting time on this **** , we need him on our case
The squirmiest language I’ve ever read.
“It is of course true that my statements to Parliament that the Rules and Guidance had been followed at all times did not turn out to be correct"
"There is not a single document that indicates that I received any warning or advice that any event broke or may have broken the Rules or Guidance."

Basically admitting to being too thick to know right from wrong.

He was advised on the right language to use in order to backtrack at a later date. He's made a joke of our political system by continually telling lies. Except they're not lies because they were only ever "to the best of his knowledge" or "as far as he had been made aware". He knew the party's were breaching the covid rules as it's a very simple thing to grasp. But he knew he could get away with it by using certain wording, and now he can make it clear that he wasn't informed at the time so when he said "to the best of his knowledge" he was telling the truth therefore didn't mislead parliament!

If that is his stance, then he should be thrown out on total incompetence.

Quite ironic that the Met got Johnson on the front pages, and Johnson is now going to get the Met off the front pages.

Ignorance cannot be a reason to be absolved of responsibility when you hold the highest public position in the land. The Metropolitan Police didn't think so when they issued him with a fine.
It will be interesting to see whether the parlimentary committee let's him off and debases parliment any further in the eyes of the public.

Is his defence really "nobody told me and you can't prove that anyone did"?
Presumably the thing about there being no documentation will provoke a question "is there documentation that you were told it was okay, or is there no written record at all"?
Did entering a room full of people drinking, and with many wine bottles on the table make you think "ah a work event"?
I wonder how many times they will have to ask him to answer the questions given and not try to confuse the issue.

he was photographed raising a glass in a toast and he has been shown to have made a speech at a leaving do - to accept that is the action of a man who didn't know he was attending a party would men the only conclusion would be to abandon the enquiry and have Johnson sectioned as he is clearly away with the fairies - Thats before you ask about the ABBA party in his own flat......

Claiming Cummings should not be considered a credible witness as they had issues. Well Johnson, that all depends on what evidence he has doesn't it?

Why have you not corrected the parliamentary record as is the expected thing to do?

Maybe that level of daily consumption was the only way they could put up with being in Johnson's Downing St.

I think there’s something in his defence that the wine bottles on the table don’t mean it wasn’t a work gathering.
There’s been a fair few decisions made in Downing Street in the last few years that can only be sensibly explained on the basis that they were made by people who were much too pissed to understand what the fuck they were doing.

page 3:
"it would have been equally obvious to dozens of others who also attended the gatherings I did"
Hang on, DOZENS??? how could dozens be in one place indoors without it breaching the rules? Or is he claiming that it was a smaller number over many gatherings?
There doesn't appear to be a great deal more to his waffle than "I wasn't told it was wrong" apart from a lot smearing the committee.
No idea why he's wittering about the passageways being a bit cramped - I doubt anyone thinks that passing someone in a corridor breached the rules.
Oh, and a lot of semantic argument that following rules, regulations, laws and guidance are all different things; presumably he only bothered with those that he wanted to.
I liked "the discredited Dominic Cummings". Cue Dominic....
A whole lot seems to be his oft-described need to reinvent events such that they suit his mindset.

Despite all the compelling evidence, you kust know he will get away with it
