Much ado about nothing that is any of our business. Neighbours may be in a bit of trouble though, recording illegally. Assuming there really is a recording... Hogwash. Precisely what law is broken when an individual records sounds within the bounds of their own home? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silver sea Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 This is the couple who called the police. Then “after they were assured by police that there was nothing to worry about, that no one was hurt, no crime had been committed and that there was no cause for further action” they rang the Guardian: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7170867/Carrie-Symonds-scared-home-recorded-political-stich-neighbours.html The man is English and voted Remain. His wife was described by one interviewer as an 'American Leftist Buddhist Jewish playwright.' Apparently, she posted on Facebook that she gave Boris Johnson ‘the finger’ when she saw him in the street. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guys blown it big time as the majority of the prudish 160000 Tory members will not want a PM who can not control his emotions correctly.

sungod Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 19 hours ago, Chomper Higgot said: The neighbour did no simply call the police s/he first went to Simonds' door and knocked three times, only calling the police after getting no response. I wonder how many serious domestic violence incidents would be prevented if more people responded like this?! But hey, let's call into question the neighbour's motives. Maybe Simonds thought it was the Jehovah's witnesses knocking again and tried to pretend to be out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-N935F using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app Yay, we haven't heard of Tommy for a while. Always a Remainer favourite to bring into any unrelated matter. Maybe the leftie activists should have knocked on his girlfriend's door late at night. They would have received a much more robust response than they did from Boris.

But they made it even more obvious by 'phoning the guardian with their recorded tape - after the police had attended and ascertained that it was just an argument between the two of them, and neither party considered it anything other.

So maybe the call to the police was the right decision after all? Well maybe ... if only to protect Johnson from his spikey girlfriend! 555 I am no fan of Johnson, and think it will be a disaster for the U.K., if he becomes PM, but he is no ‘wife beater’. She’s the one who was smashing the plates. it’s his gf who has the backbone in their relationship. She was one of the passengers of John Worboys, the black cab rapist. He had been convicted and imprisoned. The Parole Board wanted to release him. Its decision made big headlines and was heavily criticised. It is believed she used her influence behind the scenes to get the decision reversed. It was judicially reviewed and overturned by the Court. The head of the Parole Board, Nick Hardwick, was forced to resign as his position had become untenable. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6153181/Did-Carrie-Symonds-fight-John-Worboys-jail-cost-job.html She’s only only 31 years old, but she’s already one tough cookie, so I’m sure Johnson does as he’s told. Polly Toynbee in the Guardian wrote: “When Carrie Symonds is reported to be railing at him for ruining her sofa with red wine, shouting “You don’t just care for anything because you’re spoilt. You have no care for money or anything” she lands a direct hit on everything about him that should give Tory members, and the rest of us, pause for thought: the sense of entitlement, the privilege and the fecklessness.” Ms Toynbee went on to say that Johnson parks his car outside and ignores the parking tickets: “Another neighbour was reported as saying: ‘It’s got loads of parking tickets on it. He just leaves it here. He doesn’t care.’ That’s the attitude: parking tickets are for little people. That cavalier posh-boy spoiled behaviour should truly upset law abiding Tory party members.” This is the link to her article in full: https://www.theguardian.com/politics/commentisfree/2019/jun/22/boris-johnson-character-issue-nation The whole incident is, in one sense, much ado about nothing. All couples argue, sometimes very loudly. I don’t like Johnson, but rather than trying to smear him with false accusations of domestic violence, I would prefer people see the incident for what it is: yet another example of his sense of entitlement as an “Old Etonian princeling politician” who has no real regard for the rest of us.
