ET A bit of fun.

Johnson has called the privileges committee a kangaroo court.because I assume those who were sitting on the privileges committee have in front of the world in Parliament prior to the investigation called him a liar and someone who had lied to parliament.

Now If I at work before a conduct case said someone was guilty I would not be permitted to take charge of the conduct case because if I found them guilty ,the person I found guilty would have a field day at tribunal and would probably win in my opinion.


Now I believe there is nothing preventing an MP taking a case to tribunal , so could Boris win such a case. Could he claim constructive dismissal or something else.

Could Harriet find her self at ET defending her decision to take charge of the case.


P.S Try to forget any like or dislike you have for boris, think about it ,this would be the case of the century.

No. There has been no unfairness in the process, and he was not a worker or employee. The lying arse just threw his toys out of his pram.

Harriet Harman stepped in as Chair, as Chris Bryant recused himself.
There were more Conservative members on the Committee then any from other parties.
So the Conservative members on the Committee voted to punish Johnson.
His Peers also have a vote, the Committee's decision is only a recommendation.
The full report when released will highlight in detail his transgressions.
He 'jumped before he was pushed'. He only has himself to blame, for his own
failings.

MPs are not employees of anyone in the legal sense so cannot take a case to ET nor take other MPs to an ET. Their role as MP is not within the scope of employment law so is not within the jurisdiction of an ET. Parliament itself regulates the conduct of MPs.

why is he not classed as an employee , I take it he is class as self employed then ?

Edit, that a shame though as it would make for a brilliant case, Harriet in ET on behalf of the government.

it may have brought it upon himself but it was unfair to have people who had accused him of lying to parliament deciding on the case.

Levity will get you nowhere - except in Parliament.

I see Michael is buying into Johnson's BS about the Privileges Committee.
