As part of Operation BYOB, the AC-12 investigators Ted Hastings, Steve Arnott and Kate Fleming tell the PM: 'We’re satisfied that you knowingly and intentionally flouted the rules because you believe you’re above the law'

Well put together. The worst thing is that this is absolutely true. Shameful doesn't begin to describe it.
Why aren't we as the public doing more about this, why are we not going protesting and demanding that the 100 people who attended are all sacked?
Is it as shameful as Labour voting for NHS workers to lose their jobs soon?
Is is at shameful as the Unions silence?
And then you take the moral high ground
@@virginicaanderson1569 Who are you trying to fool?
@@lexifillems Prove me wrong Labour didn't vote with the Tories to sack NHS workers!
I shall be waiting!
@@virginicaanderson1569 we are not talking about anything but the Prime minister breaking covid rules and the usual diversion from you as a tory is deflect from what is the topic You learned from the arch liar Boris Johnson this tactic.
People have had to say their last goodbyes through an iPad, and others have been cut off from friends and family. The utter disrespect he's shown by partying is disgusting.
Yep My gran Died and I had to call her in her care home on face time . I also had to miss her funeral
If that didn’t happen, we would be in
Lockdown for ever & being jabbed & boosted indefinitely,,,
@@romainvicta3076 😢
'partying'? Hmmmm
It's time for him to go we've all had enough of his nonsense - he's done nothing but put the entire country into chaos and corruption from the day he came and now this and ON TOP of his CRIMES he continues to justify it.
Sadly I don't think we'll ever see him face justice, but this did make my day
He needs to take a psychopathy test. He's breaking his own rules.
@@keplermission4947 I genuinely don't think he believes the rules should apply to him and he resents us for suggesting they do
Did you pursue justice against Mr Blair...or do you only get upset when non brown people are killed?
@@asingh7874 I did actually, I freely admit I think Tony Blairs a monster and all lives have equal value in my opinion
@@asingh7874 What makes you think that being anti-Johnson makes someone pro-Blair? You seem to have a very simplistic view of politics.
This is actually very powerful. I've never been as disgusted with politicians. The Conservative Party is rotten to the core.
ignoring the fact kier starmer was also found breaking the lockdown rules as well? time to stop pretending they aren’t all the same.
@@commandocaptain2681 there was one picture where Starmer had a beer in his hand. He was in a work meeting and a takeaway arrived. He was well within the rules at the time. Boris Johnson admitted to several parties he attended.
@@commandocaptain2681 Starmer didn't make the rules. He is not the major majority in government. Whataboutery is a low form of defence.
@@commandocaptain2681 It was not against lockdown rules to have a beer at your desk as you work, any more than its against lockdown rules to have a coke, a coffee or a bottle of water. He wasn't found breaking the rules. Thats just a lie. You have said a lie.
You can't seriously compare that to multiple parties with the music cracked up, sending the juniors out to fill up a suitcase with bottles of wine, getting absolutely hammered and leaving in a disoriented and drunken state? With over a hundred people?
Faux Labour overreaction. 'Shock and awe' at a person they cannot beat at the ballot box.
That just shows the contempt I have for Johnson ,to the person who put this together I applaud you
I hope you have the same contempt for Labour who voted with the Tories to sack NHS workers in a month' s time!
We all know the entire government is deeply corrupt and its time to clean house
@@jackiejackson7587 yes,two arms of the same corrupt animal.
@@virginicaanderson1569 the fact Starmer did the same thing is escaping some people.
It was Theresa May who destroyed this country. Boris or any other PM would be officiating over a critically injured GB.
This says all that needs to be said!
Love how they got the actual cast to voice this. Class 🤣
really fella🤷♂️
You must think we were born yesterday fella😂
"Your corruption was mistaken for incompetence..." spot on!!!!
The truth and if this had been a real episode of Line of Duty it would have broke all records for viewers on the night and the series would have netted Line of Duty a shed load of awards , HINT HINT !!
Absolutely brilliant and so true. Whoever put this together needs a medal 🏅
Led by Donkeys is their name.
@@stinksofbeefio well they deserve a medal. I think donkeys would do a better job than borris and his party
Is it not a reall shame that the actual MET Police have no such desire to uphold the law when it comes to privileged people !
The MET are probably saving their energy so they can arrest innocent people when the Tories make protests iliegal.
The Met Office do the weather forecast.
@@philipdixon9234 The metropolitan police will be forced to arrest innocent people when the Tory Bill to make protests illegall becomes law. Certainly not a laughing matter.
I think the MET Office are too busy doing the weather.
Why would our national weather office want to investigate any potential crimes?! 🤔 Unless it's someone's misuse of the rain...🌧️
If only he was actually interviewed under caution about this and duly charged.
I never seen a British Prime Minister get so hammered by everyone.
He realy brought everyone together in hate for him it's truly beautiful hope everyone keeps together once he's out
@@mccobsta We can hope, yes. I'm hoping people are a lot more astute about who they cast their vote for in the future after this hot mess.
Not pm material, he was put there by middle englanders.
I know right ? And it's so glorious to see that people have woken up to this shyster and to see him for what he really is.
@@NIGHTSTALKER973 It shouldn't really have to have taken this latest development to realise what a joke he is though... but yes better late than never.
Normally I find these dramas "over dramatised". This spoof just hits hard as the raw truth.
💣💣💣
Line of duty series 1-5 was one of the best crime dramas Ive watched
@@HonestMan112 i say all 6 are. last was a slow burner but still great
@@cameronmonaghan6883 series 6 was a let down. I thought there would be a huge uncovering with someone like carmichael being uncovered as H but it turned out to be the incompetent brummie
@@HonestMan112 H was never the brains. It was always the Caddy. H was just leftovers trying to hide from AC 12
The fact he can’t say “No I didn’t” just proves it. Why do we need an investigation?
Classic politician - they can never give a straight answer so that there's 'plausible' deniability later.
Because he could be lying?
This video restored my faith in British people.
Grow up.
Even the British people who voted for this lot?
@@paulstokes393
Corbyn would be better?
@@minimetro5293 we'll never know. But we are critiquing the current government, not an imaginary one. Surely it is correct to judge people in public office in regards to conduct and truth-telling?
@@karlwilliams2703
Glad you agree...😂
This felt so real!!
Imagine of all the corrupt were held to account for their actions.
Brilliant film editing and don’t forget you know he’s lying when his lips are moving 🤣🤣🤣
Even though this is a mock up, the actor that plays DCI Arnot is actually voicing that. I think maybe the female actor has as well.
DCI Arnott? Do you know something I don't?
Vicky McClure was on Graham Norton last Friday talking about it - you may want to watch.
@@epictetus9766 did I promote him lol 😆
This is brilliant, well done. It’s a shame that he won’t actually be held to account like this. He will hang on for as long as possible as all he cares about is setting himself up to make money once he is no longer prime minister.
This is, sadly, the truth.
They all do that, and the next in line will do the same
This is pure brilliance.
I am not a Guardian reader or (usually) a supporter, but this is brilliant, truly brilliant. Very, very well done whoever put this together, absolutely on the money.
If only... the charlatan Johnson would be behind bars. I miss LOD... so well written and the actors are amazing. The monstrous Johnson is again hiding away with his cronies plotting against his own M Ps. Tick tock....
"If you have one shred of compassion..." There it is. That's the problem. He has none for anyone but himself and his corrupt friends.
His Eaton report says it all.............
"Boris really has adopted a disgracefully cavalier attitude to his classical studies. [He] sometimes seems affronted when criticised for what amounts to a gross failure of responsibility (and surprised at the same time that he was not appointed Captain of the school for the next half).
"I think he honestly believes that it is churlish of us not to regard him as an exception, one who should be free of the network of obligation that binds everyone else"
And his headmaster apparently said he would never make a PM
Sir Keir Starmer is a snake and not to be trusted. A few days ago he was interviewed by Sophie Raworth about his "work meeting", sorry party and he was a shambles, Sophie ran rings around him. The interview is now on UA-cam.
@@dragonfly6908
Silly. They had a takeaway and a beer whilst working during the Hartlepool election.
It's hardly comparable to the shenanigans that took place regularly at Downing Street every single Friday night or to a BYOB party with a hundred invites.
A sense of proportion is missing.
This is like a red nose day spoof, but sadly all to real! If I hear 'Sue Grey' one more time!
Masterpiece and bless all the people, that are now watching this as they had to say goodbye to their loved ones following the rules well our prime minister couldn't he's clearly above the law
This needs to take place for real.
Nothing to say except THIS PRIME MINISTER BORIS MUST RESIGN - as he is incompetent prime minister- sooner he resigns the better for UK 🇬🇧
Every time he opens his mouth..he insults the inteligence of million of people in the country! The ''No body told me'..' b**locks...😂
what about all the people who got fined
Powerful and moving... never thought a parody can do this to me
The final words of Sup Hastings " What's happened to us? when did we stop caring about honesty and integrity?
I'm great full that we have the freedom to challenge corruption such as this.
We need a leader we can trust. I just wish for one time he would do something to benefit the country and just go. There's too many important things going and we simply don't have the time or strength to deal with the mess he creates. He's a liability, not an asset.
How did they get the voices sounding so accurate? This is brilliant!
By using the original actors.
Vicky McClure was on Graham Norton last Friday talking about it.
"Well, fella, you've got another thing coming, believe you me" 😁. It's well put together, and more to the point, truth is sometimes stranger than fiction.
Beyond brilliant! As I Canadian I wish we the talent an integrity the British have to challenge our so called leaders.
Ca = Apotex + Trudeau ( the family T. is from Soviet Union ...erlier )
50 year of finasing time from pharmacy concers in CA
they dont challenge anything, they just do as they are molded by the media to do. This is a brilliant piece, yes, but Boris is the fall guy here. Attention being shifted from something else or others...
If only we could be governed by people as brilliant as the makers of this video are instead of those we currently have things would be so much better.
Governed, GOVERNED? They are supposed to represent us, not govern us.
@@leafbone1
The Government do represent us.
We get the government we deserve!
Politicians are a reflection of British society.
I was born in 1962,if you see how people treated each other then, and how they treat each other now. -society is going backwards!
As Daft as it sounds you don't actually realise how much corruption there was and is because all this started in 2019
Then they would have become the same, politics is a very dirty profession
This is a masterclass in editing . Genius levels of creativity and satire.
Brilliantly done . Whoever put this together deserves congratulations 👏👏👏
Pure and utter brilliance. Thank you so very much
This is so so brilliant, give the maker a knighthood
The real police must feel like donkeys for enforcing social distancing rules and closing down hospitality businesses while Downing Street partied.
As they stood outside and watched the booze trolleys arrive!
I would like to see more pictures of Sir Keir Starmer's work meeting, sorry party.
@@dragonfly6908 that one actually was a work meeting; I realise you probably lack any experience of work.
@@dragonfly6908 I hear Starmer was at a party with Epstein, not during lockdown admittedly, but just saying - could be gosip
@@martincopeland8153 Really?. A few days ago Sir Keir was interviewed by Sophie Raworth regarding his "work meeting" along with alcoholic beverages and a few takeaways and he was an absolute shambles and Sophie was running rings around him. The interview is on UA-cam.
He's not the messiah, he's a very naughty boy
I wish the enquiry was like this!
He is not incompetent, he is criminally neglegent, but he is not alone. The 'Mass Formation Hypothesis' goes a very long way to explain the hypnosis we are still under.
Conservative party = corruption party
This might be one of the greatest things I’ve ever seen.
@@louisharrington-edmans6737 both labour and cons are no longer viable. We need a true UKIP style party now
Criminally negligent feels to kind. He's no fool, this was intent, the rules don't concern the likes of him and when the met let those cretins through the doors, he knew it.
@@jackiejackson7587 you mean the guys that won a referendum for an unspecified deal using Russian interference yh they couldn't possibly be corrupt
😂😂😂 this is so well done 😂😂😂 and shame we couldn’t have a super anti corruption team.
This is the best editing ive ever seen
Very cleverly done, this sums up the views of the majority of the public. Some (perhaps many) politicians are simply not to be trusted. Leaderships calls for honesty and integrity which currently is lacking.
Love this , thank you for sharing.
This absolutely brilliant.... had me in ..stitches.... so true.
Nothing here to laugh at
@@milsub59 you sadoo, get on ya bike, you obviously don't have an sense of humour.
Your name tells me everything I need to know...
The fact that its actual fact is pitiful. Love that Boris is being addressed by a Northern Ireland accent. Taking no nonsense as we are here.
If this was an actual episode of Line of Duty.
I would definitely watch it.
That's the best thing I've ever seen this is truly epic. The makers of this need a GOLD medal. Brilliant
This should be on tv.
this came up on my UA-cam recommend I wasn't disappointed
Excellent!
Fairness, decency, integrity.
Not qualities you would attribute to senior politicians these days.
If only the met police would investigate
That would mean investigating their own inactions on people at the top (not the ordinary public, of course, who could be run in on whatever the Home Sec. does not like).
Brilliant, this must have been painstaking to make. Well done.
question: could you really trust Boris to tell you the right time in a room full of clocks?
Starmer likes a beer with labour party members when people were locked down
Brilliant ...mandatory..viewing
WHEN will he face a court of law for the criminal irresponsibility
which lead to tens of thousands of unnecessary deaths?
uh uh, think you'll find the UK has the lowest death rates in Europe from respiratory infections from Jan 2018 until present day
Big bingi. I think you are mixed up. The UK has one of the highest death rates per million of population in Europe. Right up there with the eastern european countries that have much weaker health services than the UK. Please get your facts right before making a comment.
BAFTA, oscar, golden globe and Nobel prize winner for the creator and of that video
I lost my favourite uncle to terminal cancer. I wasn't able to say goodbye to him. Thanks to boris.
A knighthood should be given to who came up with this hits the nail on the head
Agree, 100% 👍👍👍
Amazing! So well done. Kudos to the team that put this together! We here in Canada feel your pain, believe me! My thoughts, prayers & best wishes go out to the citizens of the UK. 🤞🏻🙏🏻🇨🇦🇬🇧
Thank you.
I'm a UK citizen & Johnson & his government are corrupt to the core. Lies, double standards, ineptness, scammers, fraudsters. The list goes on & on.
This deserves an Oscar, Boris Johnson best Actor
Best Bad Actor
Absolutely Brilliant.
Well done to those who made the video. 👍👍👍👍👍
Love it. If only we could see this done real.!
This is amazing!!! Well done! 👏🏻👏🏻👍🏼
Famous quote “ people get the leader they deserve”. How did it come to this!
Line of Duty is one of the greatest series on television. This clip is brilliant.
This would be better if Boris was played by Benny hill. He reminds me of him.
They wouldn't be able to catch Benny Hill ...way too fast
@@EHiggins ha ha. Your right.
The thing is though, it is not fair to just blame Boris, They were ALL equally to blame and ALL should go..
When a football team fails, the manager gets sacked, not the players..
It IS fair to blame Boris. The buck stops with the leader - whether it's the CEO of a company, the CO of an army unit, the manager of a team - the person in charge is the person who's held accountable.
@@martinen.5025 As i said, they ALL should go.. i was not defending Boris..
We binge watched Line if Duty during my cancer treatment, A new season awaits us?!? 🤔😜
Love it soooo well done!!
How did our regulation flip flops on duty outside Numbers 10 & 11 not see and hear anything suspicious?
Love, love, love this! ❤ I wish Ted was head of the Met.
Soooo about that policing bill you are moving forward in the background ..
Telegraph reader here and this is fantastic
That's more like the way we should have investigated Boris that's one thing I hate is bent politicians
I like how Boris Johnsons ghost has a slight glow
Well played team! Johnson is well and truly 'Nicked'
I love LOD and this made me feel such a deep sense of sadness. Very clever and moving
Fleming's jawline is stronger than Boris's defence 🤣
When someone we deemed competent enough to run the entire country decides to flout the rules directly in the number 10 back garden, one of the most photographed and videoed houses in the entire world, clearly it was 100% intentional. We are being manipulated.
I reckon Blob the buffoon is having another party as we speak and showing his pals this video and laughing at all of us.
I'm sure he/they are doing just that, whilst quaffing wine from the tax payers cellar. .
End of the road for Boris,
I’m surprised that this was uploaded on the actual The Guardian channel. Whoever made this video, thank you.
We need someone to be given more money than possible this is just perfect
The thing is it’s not even funny any more.
He just needs to resign,
He isn’t even a joke because a joke is funny.
They all need gone,we need a parliament.
That was VERY CLEVER. 💪😂
Perhaps the Met Police Should see this!
Just brilliant 🤩 😂😂
Love it, and agree, that’s it’s shameful that it’s all true
Imagine not going to see dying relatives just cos boris says u can’t. Grow a backbone
I want to watch the series now. Looks very interesting!
He's an affront to barbers!!
🤣🤣😂😂
Nice editing 😂👏👏
These guys couldn’t have said it any better
How in Gods name is this man still in office?
