AL ‘BORIS’

Johnson jeers at Jeremy Corbyn for being ‘mutton-headed’. He also continues to claim there is no doubt of Syria’s guilt in the recent alleged gas attack there.

Actually there is plenty of doubt. I sent the Foreign Office several questions about this, to try to discover why they seemed so sure. The answers were mutton-headed, unresponsive and useless.

I asked permission to publish the exchange in full on my blog. It was refused. We cannot go to war, as Mr Johnson seems to want to do, on this basis.

This is how the disasters of Libya and Iraq happened.
