If you hide in a fridge to avoid questions, if you illegally porogue parliament, if you say there will be no border in the Irish sea and then put a border in the Irish sea, if you boast about a £37b trace and trace system that doesn't work, if 130k of your citizens die partly due to your disinterest, non attendance at Cobra meetings and refusal to control access to the country and pay no price for it other than "aw that Boris, what a lad!"

That's the cult of personality.

Don't think so ,his non attendance at cobra meetings was due to his disinterest in keeping citizens safe. If he's not spending spending spending he's not interested.

It's also not partisan to highlight truth.

As per worldometer UK is

Top 5 total deaths
Top 6 total cases
26th new cases
40th new deaths


----------------------------------------------------------------------
Mexico jumped into second highest covid death toll with a 60 % increased revised calculation, taking the total in Mexico to well over 300k, and only America has suffered more.

In reality, only the West is reporting stats anywhere near truthfully and accurately?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Mexico is part of the west.

Disinterest usually means to be impartial - to be not influenced by considerations of personal advantage.

Anybody could write a paragraph of failure about any high profile politician.

I see the Mirror is full of Johnsons private life today. This will do him no harm whatsoever as those who voted for him are all aware that he is a top $hagger.

At least the woman in question was bang up for it unlike Salmond and Labour mp's victims.

Starmer should try living a bit closer to the edge it might improve his popularity.

Are you suggesting the British politicians should be encouraged to have affairs in order to raise chance of being voted for? What a weirdo.

It certainly shouldn't be regarded as too much of a big deal.

Its the real world and if the public cared he wouldn't have an 80 seat majority.

Although I know how much of a tool you are Pawl it’s not the least bit surprising that you seem to love the idea of committing adultery. I just hope your wife knows your thoughts on the matter.

And thanks for confirming my thoughts on just how low the British electorate have got that they’re happy to vote for serial adulterers

While it's fair to say nearly all politicians tell porkies, Johnson has turned dishonesty into an art form.

His political career was founded after being sacked by the Times for fabricating quotes. His column in the Telegraph helped coin the term 'Euromyth'

Is up there with Farage on the dishonesty scale imo.

Well, picking three of your claims at random.

On test and trace - this is a global pandemic which is hugely volatile and that the risks and costs involved in test and trace would have been justified if it was successful due to how much money it would save us by ending lockdowns. So while that was a mistake, it's hardly the slam-dunk sign of dishonesty you think it is - the reality is most PMs would have committed as much to it as well. After all every health authority pre-vaccine was fixated on testing and the idea of localised restrictions.

Hancock deserves way more criticism for it than Johnson as his app was a total misfire.

On Covid deaths - the figures are dubious to the point of meaninglessness, they don't even differentiate dying with or from the disease. How much the deaths were down to lockdown delays or the general health and demographics of our nation is also a matter of contention.

On the Irish Sea - that is clearly as much to do with EU intransigence as anything else.

to be fair to Johnstone...he's a one nation tory, socially liberal, and a believer in big government as far as i can tell

he's certainly not like a John Redwood type, at the right wing end of the party...far from it
