Boris Johnson: What is the PM's relationship with the truth?
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-56624437
So what does this tell us about the prime minister's relationship with the truth?
First, the benign interpretation of how the PM operates. One insider who knows him well says it is simply "unfair and easy to cry 'liar', as the opposition has done".
"He's far more complex and strategic and people don't give him credit for how calculating and clever he is."
Another source told me Mr Johnson has a "genuinely selective memory" and that "'I choose to remember certain things or not remember others'" is his default way of dealing with the pressures of life at No 10.
I’ve paid some more attention to her recently.Has everyone read this pile of shit yet?
He doesn't lie but he does something that's like lying because he's got a tough job and has to make difficult decisions.
No prizes for guessing who the writer of the piece is.
If she doesn't leave the BBC to become a Head of Comms for the Tory party at some point I'll be really REALLY surprised.I’ve paid some more attention to her recently.
She’s quite the trip.
I’m trying to equate her to a US columnist, Judith Miller comes to mind circa second Gulf War.If she doesn't leave the BBC to become a Head of Comms for the Tory party at some point I'll be really REALLY surprised.
Her reputation is in the gutter. Truly awful journalist. Even her colleagues think she's tarnished her credibility.
There's been a lot written about his lying over the past few days.Has everyone read this pile of shit yet?

Peter Osbourne’s assessment of her and Peston was absolutely clinical.

Also has a book on the subject.

I can easily believe he does actually believe his own bullshit. Not sure how much of it is him being a compulsive liar, a dishonest crook or a sociopath.
The people defending it as 'priced in' with him are as bad as he is.

Must have been her twin sister who reported, via Tory sources, that a Labour activist had punched Matt Hancock's spad just before the last election.Has everyone read this pile of shit yet?

Yep Laura K's article is an embarrassment, a million and one ways to excuse his behaviour. Not sure what it would take for her to brand something an outright lie. Johnson was clearly genuinely pissed by the questions from Starmer. I'm not getting my hopes up that all of this actually has any impact on voters though.Johnson has lived his entire life believing ordinary conventions (like observing rules and telling the truth) don’t apply to him. He must be really scratching his head as to why, in his mid-50s and after 100s of well-known precedents of rule-breaking and blatant falsehoods, he is getting serious flack over some pocket money (as he’d see it) to keep his partner sweet and spare her the ghastliness of living with John Lewis furnishings.
No one challenge this twat at all, it’s pathetic! He gets away with saying anything and voters believe it.
Hartlepool has a population of 93,000 yet 180k jobs
Maybe Hartlepool has a population of 93k but Nadine is talking about Harlepool which, last time I checked, had EXACTLY 180k residents. They're also all ex Labour voters and turned to the Tories because they're sick of the far left wing agenda of Starmer and just wanted Brexit to get Done. As per my source, Laura Kuennsberg.
Sometime you just lose hope with people in country and realise people deserve the shit they vote for. Unfortunately everyone else gets impacted as well. What a fecking sad state of affairs.
Not at all optimistic about the forthcoming elections and if Hartlepool is dim enough to vote Tory then good luck to them.
Pretty obvious that people have already forgotten about the total shambolic handling of the pandemic and the thousands of deaths caused by them.
You get the government you deserve. And the UK deserves a PM like Boris.
Forgotten it? I’d wager good money that most of these people exist in a bubble cultivated by Facebook, Daily Mail, The Express, The Sun and even the BBC to an extent in which Boris has done everything he could and the UK have actually dealt with it better than the the EU by every measure and we are lucky it wasn’t Labour in charge or all the things that have happened in the past year would have happened.

Even if they get away with it this time. For the GE it doesn't bode well. The only way to counteract our quite far right media is through active engagement with voters on a local level.spending the last year alienating and kicking out the only people who will knock on doors and give out leaflets might be a bad electoral strategy for the Labour Party.
Yeah would be interested to know this.Anyone know how many more constituencies that Labour won in the last election because of the Brexit party splitting the right wing vote? I'm guessing someone has modelled this.
Yeah would be interested to know this.
Hartlepool is one of them(Makes it all the more bizarre to still purge you're activists base)
