The most repulsive sight during Boris Johnson ’s latest walk of shame had to be Michael Fabricant’s head.
And I’m not talking about the sick-coloured thatch of dead rodents that sits atop it. No, it was seeing the Tory MP wheeled on to the BBC to defend the first British Prime Minister ever to be fined for breaking the law while in office, and saying he couldn’t see what all the fuss was about.
Or rather, he claimed Johnson had only done what every teacher and nurse had done when their shift ended during lockdown by hitting the bottle in the staff room.
