Do you really think that the truth will come out about the Christmas activities at number 10?

The after-work Christmas parties that I remember date back to the 1950s possibly into the 1960s. Then the offices had snacks and drinks brought in, all in all, it was rather a sedate party mainly because the senior management went from area to area to wish the staff a Merry Christmas, and thank them for their effort during the year. I think it was during the 1960s that the fashion of Christmas parties at work went out. People were going to their own parties in the evenings, mixing with their own friends and certainly not work colleagues. In many ways it was a different world, times were still relatively hard, the hardships of war were still fresh in everyone’s memory.

The point that I am making is that Christmas parties at work went out of fashion, it was a case of let us leave work and go and find our real friends.
To me, the fact that parties were still going on at number 10 shows how out of touch with the realities of life these people are.
Don’t you wonder how many decisions that affected us the normal citizen, were made by people in a stupor?

Do you really believe the excuses and forgetfulness of events that happened?
All I can say is if that is the case that they really can’t remember what they were saying and doing, or even if they were there, this country is in a very sad state.

On another subject have you heard that a number of people don’t want to return to the old regime, of attending the work place? Apparently they so like the idea of working at home that they want it to continue for ever more. (That will put a stop to Christmas parties.) If you think about it it will cut down a lot of pollution from travelling in cars and buses.
Although working from home restricts your social contacts. You will no longer be chatting around the Coffee Urn, this could lead to some people becoming antisocial. Just imagine that if you are very shy person and find it difficult to make friends, your circle of contacts will decrease immensely. That could have a drastic affect on your mental state.
