The WhatsApp group, called ‘PM Updates’, contained Boris Johnson’s closest advisers and discussions within the group touched on key Covid policies – such as shielding the clinically vulnerable, and the Department of Health and Social Care’s plans for responding to the pandemic.
But as plans for the inquiry took shape, Martin Reynolds – Johnson’s principal private secretary at the time – set the group so that messages sent would vanish after a period of time. It means potentially key discussions that took place are unavailable as evidence.
So destruction of evidence? Obstruction of justice? Any of the typical charges for this stuff if your average Joe were to pull this kind of stunt?
Average joe would be in trouble for just using whatsapp or email for government business. It is against the rules of any government department I ever worked with. Never mind deleting the evidence.
I can’t believe I actually have to say this.
You are not a government official, working in a professional capacity having conversations with your collegues about the job you’re doing.
Your personal discord, etc, is completely irrelevant.
That’s not an argument, that is a false statement.
You’re not making any sense!?!
Edit: Can this not just be accepted in the spirit that it was intended…?
