PM IS A BIG MISTAKE

-

It must be a shock for Boris Johnson that Brexit talks are continuing after he had declared them over.

But I suppose we shouldn’t be surprised that he was mistaken ken by the negotiatio­ns when he’s wrong about everything else. e.

Prediction­s are hazardous s when the egotist who never wanted to leave the EU, siding g with Out in a referendum he thought he would lose merely y as a tactical move to be PM, lost control long ago.

My hunch remains that Downing Street’s toys-out-of-the-pram routine is a smokescree­n smok before Johnson sig signs a bad deal which he will present as a huge victory. Red wall Tories who gave hi him an 80-seat majority have mo most to lose if there’s no deal wh when jobs in their areas would disp disproport­ionately go to the wall.

SADIQ Khan is right about Johnson blatantly lying when claiming that London’s Mayor bankrupted the capital’s public transport system – coronaviru­s did that. But Sadiq, above, is lucky when it comes to his Tory opponent in the mayoral race. Tory lightweigh­t Shaun Bailey has been sending journalist­s flip flops with Khan’s face on and making a comically bad Great British Bake Off spoof. Khan will have the last laugh by winning the election in May.

“It was a mistake...e it clearly undundermi­ned the Government’s coherent narrative about people following the rules.” Ex-civil service head Mark Sedwill confirmed what we knew: the PM pretending chief aide Dominic Cummings didn’t break lockdown was disastrous.
