Shows you the mettle of the man or lack of it he obviously hates women it must be gnawing away at him because he is a womaniser & I suppose he doesn't want to resort to a bottle Same as Bojo what is it now eight children the ones we know of.... A first marriage with a UNI student, then a marriage to an articulate clever woman a lawyer and four children later whom he said he'd wished hednot left.... I can't see who would look twice at the dishevilled mess, although we all know he likes to look like that as he ruffles his hair to look like a haystack to suitably fool everyone but he is cut throat just as he has two faces he was pro EU then he was Brexit changes his standing to flip flop. He also had an affair with a write another child, then another affair another child, then Carrie Symonds and two more sprogs. But there is probably more on the sidelines.

Mostly men, mostly racists, albeit covert, mostly misogynist they were a disgrace to Journalism, to Democracy and everything that constructed western democracy. My issue with the item is that the scandal is obscuring the main problem. People will be conned into believing that Boris Johnson's father, and the other odious men in the Tory Party is the scandal are but more important, ad more worrying is that they were elected, even when people knew. We rail against unelected bodies but the issue is the public standards, and their dereliction. As a matter of fact, it is the unelected House of Lords that has resisted the most illiberal measures of the elected house, it was the lords that resisted Brexit. The issue is not merely the press, it is the decline of standards in society, The Mail has a lot of responsibility for this, as also The Sun, The Express, the Telegraph and even the Times, but I do no longer read the British Press, I read the French, German and the superior Italian Press [pretty ropey in the main] The lady who was editor of le Monde was asked why Le Monde was such a great paper. 'Our columnists are only invited to write on their expertise when the expertise is required.' Our journalists have become celebrities with their own 'shows! They are treated as pundits on everything, they write ad nauseam columns when they have nothing to say or to contribute and in that they contribute to the decay of democracy, and the dereliction of probity and standards in the public and society generally.

I understand, because I share some of the reservations in respect of Corbyn however the Conventions on which democracy in this country depend must be respected that a vote of 'no confidence' and which was presented to the house was explicitly related to Mr Johnson's conduct of our affairs and his 'illegal attempt to prorogue the house to flout the very principle on which the pretext of Brexit was proclaimed and defended which was 'the sovereignty of the house'. Under such conditions the vote is not matter of personalities but one of principle. I am afraid that although I generally tend to the liberal democrats the leader of that party led her party to oppose the motion because she had decided that Mr Corbyn was not 'fit'. That is not her decision nor is her judgement consistent with the motion. Had the vote been carried the proper course is for the prime minister to resign and for the Queen to commission the 'leader of the opposition' to forma government and he had pledged that he would not seek to enact his manifesto but to form a caretaker administration prior to an election' The liberal democrat were at fault in arrogating to itself the choice of a prime minister. In the circumstances of a disgraceful press, a disgraceful prime Minister and his hideous 'advisor' the country was betrayed by a faulty and arrogant judgement by the liberals and a silly country chose to vote for this buffoon, and his hideous caucus of Brexit fanatics, who proved themselves to be not only incompetent [as predicted. Had the proper conventions been observed the country might have calmed down instead of voting in the hysterical and irresponsible way for a party and a prime minister as ruinous and as morally destitute as was predicted. It was not 'Hobson's Choice ' but chicanery and dishonesty and mendacity and paranoia of a mob that culminated in a democratic farce. @@junehitchcock170

There is a stench about this and it will never go away. What good has this family ever done the UK, its all self self self.

I hate the way people describe civil servants as incompetent fools and corrupt. I was a civil servant for 16 years in a public facing role at the benefits agency. The people I worked with were without exception hard working, honest and diligent people. I think when people talk about the incompetent civil servants they should clarify it is the ones at the head of the service and political appointees. The ones at the top have no idea what life is like for the ones actually working at the coalface for barely more than minimum wage.
