#OperationSaveBigDog? No, Tories. Take him to the vet & have him put down, for his sake and ours
Treacherous cur: Boris Johnson is pictured next to Martin Reynolds at the Downing Street garden party on May 15, 2020, a bottle of booze on the table next to them. Now, it seems Johnson wants Reynolds to take the rap for the parties, to save the prime minister’s pointless career.
It’s exactly as we all thought. Rather than accept responsibility for creating a culture of corruption at Downing Street in which employees were encouraged to have parties while the rest of the UK lived in isolation, Boris Johnson is going to scapegoat the staff.
It seems he has drawn up a list of colleagues he intends to throw under the bus in order to save his own worthless career.
They include Martin Reynolds, the private secretary who invited 100 people to a party in the Downing Street garden on May 20, 2020 and with whom Johnson is pictured at a party in the Downing Street garden on May 15, 2020.
Apparently he’s calling it “Operation save Big Dog”. Here are the details.
One has to question why Johnson thinks pretending other people are responsible for the attitude of contempt for the rules that he created will help him – for a very obvious reason.
The latest story has it that Downing Street staff were having drinks parties every week during lockdown – as suggested by Johnson. The Mirror called it “Boris Johnson’s wine time Fridays“.

The staff scapegoating plan hasn’t gone down well among the political community:
Boris Johnson is preparing a plan to stay as PM – with staff sacked instead.
The plan is reportedly called – I kid you not – “Operation Save Big Dog”
What a coward! For once, he needs to take responsibility. And resign.

… Or indeed among the public:
they're definitely shifting the blame onto Downing Street staff.

If I was one of the staff members being pressurised to quit so Boris Johnson can save a career that isn’t worth saving, I’d be handing my phone full of lockdown-busting party invitations to the investigators – after using it to call the Mirror, the Torygraph and all the other members of the press pack who are baying for prime ministerial blood.
This is one “Big Dog” who needs to be put out of our misery.

Fascist male dictators always blame their underlinings and little fascist dictator duck johnson is no different to other male dictators! Time this serial crook was charged with corruption and immediately removed from his fake office as a pretend prime minister!
The Downing Street staff threatened with the sack must respond by threatening to provide evidence to malestream media concerning little fascist dictator duck johnson’s criminal activities. This will then force duck johnson to resign! He can then return to his favourite job which is scrounging money from stupid wealthy fascist tory donors!
