Boris Johnson's privileges committee appearance today was exactly what anyone would expect - but that didn't make it any less infuriating.
The long-awaited showdown instantly reminded those of us unfortunate enough to have existed under his disastrous time in Number 10 exactly what it is that we are not missing, now he has been dumped back on the backbenches.
It is more than tiresome to have to be writing once again about this man's obfuscation, his misinformation and his shameless blaming of others, but watching his brazen performance in Parliament today also brought with it a sense of relief that he is no longer the most powerful person in the country. After today's events we can safely suggest he never will be again.
