As per usual, the commentariat makes the mistake of trying to attack Boris by taking his words super-literally, rather than considering how his words affect his chosen audience. His opponents choose to caricature him as a British Donald Trump, yet they seem serially unable to learn the one obvious lesson arising from that. Enough people like what he says well enough to keep supporting him.

But by all means, keep on pointing and sniggering about factual inaccuracies in rhetoric that ultimately make precisely no difference whatsoever to the outcome of anything at all.
