New policy - break the law? Just apologise

Job done
First tax dodging Zahawi
Now Sunak with no seatbelt
Solves the prison crisis I suppose

Sunak apologises for failing to wear seatbelt while filming in car

No 10 says PM ‘fully accepts’ this apparent breach of road safety law ‘was a mistake’

They live in a totaly different world to the vast majority of people.
A world absolutely detached from the hardships so many hard working, poorly paid people have to endure.

Everyone seems to have forgotten that Sunak was fined for partying while people died from the Pandemic, exactly the same as Johnson was.

I haven’t forgotten
I also haven’t forgotten when he said, categorically, he hadn’t broken any social gathering laws…… in the HOC

It’s ok tho, In his first speech he talked about respect, honesty and integrity

Just another lying cheating barsteward

 

[Billyzin]

Lying is in their DNA.

Is it still 3 strikes and out?

 

[xxlshirts_fit_all]

New policy? They’ve been doing it years this lot…

 

[Billyzin]

Strikes seems an apt word at the moment.

 

[smoggs03]

isn't this also in the Highway Code?
just put hazards on or raise a hand and you can do anything you want.

Of all the things to have a go at Sunak about, not wearing a seatbelt is probably the least most important ever.
What next, appearing in a photoshoot on a bike without wearing a helmet?

Would you expect to be able to just say sorry?

It's almost like multiple things can't be pointed out at the same time.

Do we all have to choose between seatbelt or economy when scrutinising the PM? Sunak has done something stupid that would get anyone else a fine on the spot. If he gets away with it, then it becomes a much bigger story.

Pulled over by the Police, probably not.
A video of it appearing on social media, pretty much yeah.

Well no, because wearing a helmet isn't law when riding a bike.

Him not wearing a seatbelt just reinforces his belief that rules and laws apply to the little people (not literally as he's a short **** himself) and he doesn't need to adhere to them. The same as lockdown parties...

You reckon the police aren't using social media to prosecute driving offences ?

How come Guy Richie wasn't allowed to just say sorry ?

Lock, stock and a driving ban: Guy Ritchie filmed texting at wheel

Film director Guy Ritchie has been banned from driving for six months after a cyclist filmed him texting at the wheel of his Range Rover.

I doubt it. If the police get sent dashcam footage by cyclists or road users, and they can identify the perpetrator, they usually fine or prosecute. There are social media accounts set up that show these videos & the outcomes all the time.

I wonder if the same people saying "it's not a big deal" were saying that when Dianne Abbot was drinking a can of Mojito on the tube - somehow I suspect not.

I was.
I've necked many a can on the tube, couldn't see the issue with Dianne having a loosener on the way home.

For not wearing a seatbelt in the back seat?
Wow, some people really do have too much time on their hands.
