Ousting a liar

-

Unlike Chamberlai­n and Asquith, Boris Johnson is not leading a country at war (“Why Johnson must be removed,” Prospect website). His obvious and repeated lying is not only a dangerous and degrading embarrassm­ent to the institutio­n of parliament (and the United Kingdom itself), but also undermines his authority to reprimand his fellow lawbreaker­s in the Kremlin.

I trust our MPs will be reflecting on what action to take over the coming weeks. Only they have the power to rectify this mess. Surely there must be at least one or two of them able to run the show better than this?
