No - this is political hit job and a poor one at that because it's going to HELP BOOST Boris, not hinder him.

The reason that Boris has been summonsed is that he is named in the private prosecution. If you wanted to summonse someone else, you too could do the same thing.
I agree with your point that it may help Boris, but that's a small price to pay if it increases democracy.

The One Show earlier this evening showed British people returning to the UK after living abroad.

The reasons given, apart from the uncertainty due to Brexit, was that they are finding that the attitude is one of "you're leaving the EU, so leave, get out then"!

Change of plan: Let's leave. Never liked Europe anyway. Waste of time. Screw everything.

Sounds made up. Fears over healthcare will be the real answer.

Is that really surprising?
Ironically one of the benefits of living in warmer climates is fewer health issues, so they come back to the UK, adding pressure to the already stretched NHS and Care system. Nice own goal.

It's the fact that he held public office at the time that is the issue.

Andrew, this is not the first and won't be the last. This is yet another blatent attempt to circumvent the result of the referendum and kill off Brexit. Everybody can see that, no-one is being fooled.

I've never seen such wingeing and tantrums from losers in my life (excluding under-5s).

Can't seem him getting on the ballot paper, he maybe be popular with the Tory members but MPs don't like him, and they get to decide who are the final 2 candidates. With this hanging over him, it'll be the final straw. It's all a terrible shame I must say, ;)

Oily snake Gove will come from behind and grab the crown at the last minute, Backstabbing everyone else he promised to support (again).

Why would ensuring high standards in office kill off Brexit?

Surely, this individual is doing the country a great service. Look at what Boris has done & said in the past. Seriously, he would make this country a laughing stock.

That is not the purpose of this prosection, and this has been admitted.

Marcus Ball: How Boris Johnson's accuser over Brexit spent donations on self-defence classes and special cupcakes
Quote:

The Remainer entrepreneur who crowdfunded £370,000 to prosecute Boris Johnson spent nearly £50,000 of the donations on himself – including self-defence classes, a luxury flat and branded cupcakes.

Hi OB, where and when was it admitted? Have only been skimming through posts the last few days so could well have missed whatever it is you're quoting.
