He has chosen to back Priti Patel over the bullying thing, desepite the fact that the report has concluded that she broke ministerial code of conduct..........and another minister resigns because of it.

This - once again - is a shocking example of how BoJo has no morals (six children to three women too!!)
Cummings rule break - and then ignoring medical advice re. COVID
Patel's bullying - then dismissing the findings of his own Patel enquiry . . . and resignations all over the place 
Are we now going to see huge spikes in cases, hospitalization and deaths because of this total disregard by those who should be the most rigid sticklers to the rules/guidance/advice/LAW?
i.e. "If they can't be bothered, why should we?"

What are they up to now EFFT ?
It's the worst possible "Old boys network" and a green light to bullying everywhere
How an he say they'll stamp out bullying in schools but not in Gov?
Patel's apology is a admission of guilt
No, this will be forgotten by the election. Typically our useless and culturally unfit for purpose media are more obsessed with lynching Jeremy Corbyn than bringing a cabinet minister and a Tory PM to account.
Gordon Brown was also accused of bullying when PM but I'm pretty sure those claims went nowhere rather than proven as in Patel's case.
A general rule with Tories is the nastier they are, the more the party faithful love them. So that's the main reason she's still in her job. A lot of her fans like that she's a bully. They see it as synonymous with getting things done. Authority figures don't have to be liked! The line is, you can't make an omelette without breaking an egg and the Civil Service is full of hostile lefties who want to stop Brexit etc.

Just referencing what Saint said about Boris glossing over Cummings' rule breaking and now sweeping The report about Patel under the carpet and ignoring medical advice and, and, and.........
And now we hear that Boris asked for the report to be 'PALATABLE'. I.E. Doctored/not wholly truthfull.
How dishonest and untruthful can this shower get?

When i worked for Soc Serv this is exactly the attitude- you don't have to be likable, you have to be capable, the rest doesn't matter. It's a bit like Hitler - he didn't care how things got done, just so long as it was 'done'.
When i was promoted I was told, "Make sure the tail doesn't wag the dog" Nasty stuff

I used to have a mate who worked for them, nice guy at least to me and drinking mate but quite right-wing, he used to tell me that he and his mates there enjoyed winding claimants up and hoped they'd kicked off. That was their entertainment in an otherwise crappy boring job. The thing was, he'd had a string of nothing special jobs himself on low pay and history of being sacked, walking out of jobs if he got bored, couldn't hack it or fell out with management. He just got lucky and got a short term contract so made the most of it.

ðĪ what a moron to be working in a place like that. As though itâs not bad enough getting help without having to come into contact with a cretin like him ðĄ
Seemingly fatal errors of judgment are his forte - but just bounce off him.
Patel, Cummings, Jenrick, PPE, Russia report, Jennifer Arcuri... nothing sticks.
i see Hancock has had his bestie from uni working for him as an advisor (relationship until now undisclosed) since March...

If you're not on social media, you don't know the half of it. MSM will only let you know what they want you to know. Ergo the crap that they put out.
