Plus many others.

For those still clinging bravely on to a belief that Boris can do both, this snippet from the article I posted may be of interest:

In response, Downing Street hinted that it might withhold royal assent from the bill, precluding it from becoming law: it didn't. It hinted that Mr Johnson might disobey the law, before saying that he wouldn't. Then they said there were ways around it, loopholes to exploit and, if necessary, they would take it to the courts.

Reader, let me let you into a little secret: there isn't and they probably won't. The truth is that for all Downing Street's bluster, it has already, in the brief period since Mr Johnson entered Number 10, amassed quite the history of flirtation with constitutional cataclysm, only to never quite follow through.
