Voters did not need a Westminster committee to tell them Boris Johnson is a liar and a charlatan. He was fired from one of his first jobs in journalism after fabricating a quote.
He was sacked from former Tory leader Michael Howard’s team for lying about an affair. He was one of the key figures in a Vote Leave campaign that systematically deceived British people.
It was obvious he was not someone to be trusted long before Partygate, which saw him socialising with colleagues at No10 while the public were banned from attending loved ones’ funerals.
