A wonky star

-

SIR – “Even those who thought he was brilliant … were often dismayed by his seeming lack of judgment, his tendency to hyperbole, to over excitement, even to hysteria. He behaved with a death-defying selfbelief. He was thought to be congenital­ly untrustwor­thy. He was born under a wonky star.” This was Boris Johnson’s descriptio­n of Winston Churchill in his 2014 biography.

I wonder what the great man would have written about Mr Johnson.

SIR – Why would anybody need an ethics adviser?
