it's impossible to keep track of the constant stream of bullshit that emanates from Johnson's mouth. Even now, he's bloviating and blustering as usual in Parliament, telling us that he "takes full responsibility" even though obviously none of this was his fault and the bad things happened after he left. So he definitely didn't lie to Parliament. Lie on top of lie on top of lie. But it becomes accepted that it's no big deal for a Prime Minister to oversee large scale breaking of the rules he set, participate in the parties himself and then repeatedly try to lie his way out of it.

Can you imagine any other PM in history being allowed to get away with this?

We've got to "move on", we are constantly told, it doesn't matter about the man at the top having no honour, decency or integrity because, er, Ukraine, um, cost of living crisis. Because obviously, you need an amoral, lazy, selfish charlatan leading the country to address these important issues.

The UK is heading down a very dangerous and damaging slippery slope.
