I absolutely abhor Boris, but I think Diane Abbot should be above trying to get at him by talking about "rumours" that he assaults women. She should be above something like that. If she knows he does that is different, but "rumours"???
I have to agree with you.
I view Johnson a a dangerous leader. What he leaves behind in terms of Policy and Law will not be easy to unpick. Go he will, ultimately, but in the meantime those of us opposed to the man cannot be seen to be simply 'Boris bashing' just for the sake of having a dig at him, otherwise we lose credibility.
And, in fairness, regardless of his reputation as a womaniser, rumours are just that. There may or may not be truth in them. Although I wouldn't be surprised if they are true, I'd rather stick to the facts. This is too serious for 'gossip'.
As for his hair and general appearance - it seems to be a fact of life that some men always looked 'crumpled' due to body shape or poor tailoring, whatever, but shower daily and are clean. Johnson appears to be one of those unfortunate individuals and I'm not, personally, going to condemn him for it.
Johnson is what Johnson does. And what he's doing to the national as a whole is what matters to me.
