Boris has nothing on them!

I believe ITV still maintains the event lasted an hour. Let's see what the Sue Gray report has to say on that.
OLD BOY knows better than Johnson - after all, Johnson has form…

If the Met have "misinterpreted the rules", why isn’t Johnson appealing*?

*I know, I know - because he is an inveterate liar, philanderer, dresses like 7 pounds of shit in a 5 pound bag who combs his hair with a toffee apple, but I meant appeal against the FPN
