Perhaps you underestimate the public's cynicism in political leadership at the moment, even though you yourself make reference to it in an earlier post. If Cameron is standing up at the dispatch box, claiming that he will cleanse dirty politics and remove tax avoidance and evasion by turning the screws on tax havens and banning bearer shares, and then it is discovered that his own father was secretly up to exactly the things that son Dave claims to abhor...(which incidentally has made Dave a very wealthy man, and who knows what sums he has offshore - no jokes about Lanzarote) how receptive are voters likely to be to all the scares he's putting out about Brexit causing the NHS to go bust, prison camps all over the south of England, electricity and gas prices going through the roof, future generations left destitute etc?
As for Boris Johnson - for reasons that are entirely beyond me, the public trust him, and his endorsement of Brexit is worth many, many votes, even if he has been shown to have been banging Petronella Wyatt during late nights at the office.
