UK Politics 

I find it really bizarre that people in Parliament are pretending today that they take lying to Parliament seriously.

Politicians, especially (but not only) the current lot do it all the time.

Is this their way of trying to pretend that the lies Johnson told to Parliament were somehow unusual and that they're all good chaps really?

Good to know that Normal Island is having a totally normal day.

The description of "pound-shop Nigel Farage" for anyone other than Farage himself is... confusing.

@xtaldave “huff, huff, political witch-hunt, Dominic Cummings, mandate, got brexit done, nobody told me I was a lying lawbreaker”. Repeat ad nauseam.

@xtaldave There are some rare gems up in Newington too, if you were willing to hazard the Neverending Roadworks™.

@admitsWrongIfProven It wasn’t in reply to anything; it was an observation of disgraced former PM Johnson’s pathetic attempt to avoid parliamentary scrutiny for breaking the law re Covid restrictions.

Fifty-two pages to say nothing and lie while doing so? Truly a politician of our times.

Key passage from Boris Johnson's attempts to pretend he didn't knowingly lie to Parliament

Discovered that it’s almost impossible to hum Chopin’s Funeral March if thinking about Williams’ Imperial March.

@xtaldave That’s been his schtick for the past few years. I can only imagine he’s somehow managed to say that for 50 pages.

Crace has the measure of him. theguardian.com/politics/2023/

It’s amazing that Johnson really thinks that anyone who isn’t already a completely deluded idiot will believe a word he says.

@anarchic_teapot @clacksee Everyone eventually finds Rose Street. The trick is finding the way out.
