Yesterday, one of his allies said: "It is not true that Boris does not remember his PIN number, it is just that he does not have 100% confidence he remembers it.
Jesus fucking wept

General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Please don't post to both !uk_politics@feddit.uk and !unitedkingdom@feddit.uk .
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric politics, and should be either a link to a reputable news source for news, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread. (These things should be publicly discussed)
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
!ukpolitics@lemm.ee appears to have vanished! We can still see cached content from this link, but goodbye I guess! :'(

Which OFC means he will give the pin as one number out. "Look at me, I'm honestly trying".
He probably uses the same excuse for everything. Wallpaper donors, the number of kids he has, etc etc.
The man is physiologically incapable of honesty.
Mrs Spudger manages a fleet of mobile devices, mostly Apple. She uses an Apple service called Business Manager to administer the devices. Here's a quote from the manual:
"Reset user passwords
If users forget their password, you can reset it. Resetting their password allows them to get a new temporary password, at which time they will have to create a new password for their Managed Apple ID."
In other words, Johnson is talking utter bollocks. He doesn't need to know the password. His best defence is to drop it off a North Sea ferry, in a Rebekah Vardy stylee.
I have no doubt GCHQ can crack the Iphone. Israel had a firm doing this 5 years ago. For apple to reset the PW, the phone would need to be connected online. And because of the content on the device, they would not allow that to happen. Johnson is a lying piece of scum without a doubt, but this is not an option they can use.
Just read what I said again. Mrs Spudger does this for a living. She knows what she's talking about. The phone doesn't have to be connected to the public internet. It can just be connected to a private wi-fi network for this purpose.
Phones like this are very tightly locked down. This is not the iPhone you may be used to. The management software even has its own private Apps Store. The user can't just add or remove random apps from the public App Store. The device manager can also prevent any deletion of content.
These things aren't left to chance, especially when we're talking about the highest office in the land.
This is... kind-of right, but not entirely.
If the phone was registered with Apple Business Manager or Google Enterprise Management and pushed into an MDM with well-written enrollment policies this is 100% true and is how any self-respecting organisation managed their devices. But you can't enroll devices retroactively, and this is a totally unmanaged personal device that was being used for high-stakes government business without being declared - the sort of thing that you or I would get fired and maybe prosecuted for, but this mop-haired fucking cunt will just shrug off.
