Kier Starmer has been calling out Johnson's deceit from the start. Pressure from the opposition over the PM's 'untenable' position echoes the mood of the nation.
This 'scandal' has been stirred-up by Dominic Cummings. The PM did not lie to parliament and the current attacks on Johnson are distracting from pressing political responsibilities like responding to Russian involvement in Ukraine and managing Brexit negotiations.
It's ironic that media criticize Boris Johnson more for a garden party than for his role in the Yemen genocide that's already killed almost 100,000 children.
