anyone else think that these'disclosures' are getting a bit silly?

[ludwig]

Yes. It's all a bit pathetic. He obviously did it, but why wait twenty years to tell anyone, and who cares?

[pixie374]

Some of them are, yes. This is hardly traumatic and there is no real reason to mention it now, other than because he is well-known. I can't believe this is the only time this has ever happened to her.

[Jackdaw33]

precisely. Sheer muck-raking.

[agchristie]

Hand under the table, pole dancers...

Boris continues to let things slide :-(

[Bobbisox1]

The long knives are out for him, what she hopes to gain after 20 years I don’t know, maybe she’s a closet Corbynite?

[Spicerack]

He'd better hope she doesn't take him to the Supreme Court.

[CrapAtCryptics]

I understand that Boris picked his nose about 25 years ago - about as newsworthy as some of the carp being published at present.

[aelmpvw]

i'm waiting for the repercussions, i kissed my bosses wife under the mistletoe thirty five years ago ...

[Old_Geezer]

But she didn't say whether these passes, Boris is accused of plucking up the courage to make, resulted in a, "Yes", or a, "No".

[Jackdaw33]

Far from diminishing Boris's status, such silly stories only serve to enhance it.

[david small]

Pathetic, utterly, ridiculously pathetic. What next? When he was five he wet the bed once.

[pixie374]

I can't see how it "enhances" it, jackdaw? But I can't imagine anyone will be the slightest bit surprised, horrified, shocked... or anything else. Just.... "right... ok".

[Arksided]

I think he'd better call Bill Clinton, obviously in the same league.

[New Judge]

Twenty years ago a 35 year old man squeezed the thigh of a fruity 26 year old woman sitting next to him at a boozy journalists' lunch. She said and did nothing about it at the time.


Twenty years later her alleged "assailant" has become the Prime Minister. That same young woman meanwhile now contributes to The Evening Standard. That organ's editor is one George Gideon Oliver Osbourne, dispatched from the Front Benches following Mr Cameron's failure to secure a "Remain" vote in the EU referendum and no friend of the alleged assailant.

The young lady alleged "victim" now reveals her horrific ordeal in all its gory detail:

"More wine is poured; more wine is drunk. Under the table I feel Johnson's hand on my thigh. He gives it a squeeze. His hand is high up my leg and he has enough inner flesh beneath his fingers to make me sit suddenly upright."

I wonder why she took so long to relate this tale to the world.

[aelmpvw]

is jackie collins her ghost writer?

[pixie374]

In real life, I think most people would have one of three reactions...
Quietly remove his hand and move away.
Make a big song and dance and slap his face.
Allow him to continue.
In a public situation, there is no real feeling of immediate threat. So no idea why she is suddenly bothered now.

[Mozz71]

Even I think this is ridiculous, and I think Boris is a ninkenpoop.

[dannyk13]

Her description of what she allegesoccurred is straight out of a low quality romantic novel.

[hereIam]

They're throwing everything they can at him to bring him down and he keeps on bouncing back - good on ya Boris ..

[pixie374]

We need Boris right now.
