Johnson reportedly is now saying that he welcomes the

I've just realised the irony of having a Boris Johnson thread in
the 'current affairs' part of the forum, when having a current
affair seems to be one of the few things he hasn't been proven
guilty of.... :P

Not sure he's ever known where to draw the line, has he?
His tactics seem to be more like "oh look, a duck" than anything
else right now.

Not a current one, but plenty in the past (including 2 on the

With thanks to T. S. Eliot, from Coriolan.
"O mother
What shall I cry?
We demand a committee, a representative committee, a committee
of investigation
RESIGN RESIGN RESIGN."

"What infernal serpent
Has lent you his forked tongue?
From what pit of foul deceit
Are all these whoppers sprung?
Deceiver, dissembler
Your trousers are alight
From what pole or gallows
Do they dangle in the night?"
William Blake, 1810
