On the Andrew Marr show, Sunday, he showed the front page of every newspaper, most of which were, in some way, praising the government.
Well, when I say ALL the newspapers, he kept the Sunday Mirror hidden beneath the Telegraph and didn’t show it, presumably because it led with the Jennifer Arcuri exclusive about her affair with Johnson.
And to think that there are some people who still think that the BBC isn’t biased towards the government and still trot out that old cliche about the BBC being full of lefties.

The new chairman of the BBC has donated over £400,000 to the Tory party.
Make of that as you will.

Can but hope spaffalot Johnson faces the full fury of a woman scorned and the investigating committees don't hold back. But still the Borette apologists will pass it and his philandering history as jolly japes.

Many of Boris’ supporters would chuckle indulgently even if it was their wives he was shagging. There’s still a powerful residue of forelock tugging serfdom in the English national character.

I always refer people who haven't read it to Robert Tressell's classic "The Ragged Trousered Philanthropists". A must-read.

Apparently Boris has agreed to get his head shaved for charity when hairdressers reopen on 12th April.

Now, this may surprise you, as you know what I think of Johnson, but I don't agree with the Prime Minister of our country becoming even more of a figure of ridicule than he is already. He should respect the dignity of the office he holds.
