A snap poll has suggested that more than two thirds of people do not believe Boris Johnson's defence of Downing Street partygate events. And those feeling were all too clear on the latest edition of BBC Question Time.
During the show on Thursday night (March 22), presenter Fiona Bruce asked the audience, which she had pointed out was mainly Tory voting, how many believed the former prime minister had been telling the truth when he sat before the Privileges Committee earlier this week.
She reversed the roles on the audience and asked: “There are more people in this audience who voted for Boris Johnson than any other single Party here. Let’s have a show of hands shall we? Who believes Boris Johnson was telling the truth yesterday?”
