exactly - but not sexual assault, which the other people listed were found guilty of

I agree, this at the moment to use American Parlance is a "nothing burger".

Not to dismiss her claim out of hand, but also not to discourage other women to come forward, if she is making this claim then she needs to provide as full a recollection as she can but bare in mind, the memory does not work like a computer and preserve memory perfectly.

Next we will have a scandal if politicians hug people or exchange a kiss on the cheek.

Wrong.

You are just trying to gloss over the truth and minimise Buffoon's behaviour.

Would you like Boris groping your crotch? What if it was Mandelson?
