Hi, I'm Boris
I'm a compulsive liar
I lied to the Queen
I lied on the side of a bus
I was sacked twice for lying
I cheated on two wives
Every day is my day
I fake my Twitter accounts
Vote for me to keep it that wayСлава Україні! Героям слава!Comment

It won't make any difference though.
You'd need something on the scale of BoJo being found out as a "kiddy killing paedo" for the Tories to lose.Scoots still says that Apr 2020 didn't mark the start of a new stock bull market.Comment

I don't know how they were misleading anyone. There is no FactCheckUK and the branding and the bio still had CCHQ on it.
It's clearly wind up and the people crying about it won't be voting tory anyway.Comment

£350million? Not a lie, a wind up.
Easiest deal in history? A wind up.
Getting rid of 20,500 cops then claiming to be taking on 20,000? A wind up.
Getting Brexit done? A wind up.…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment

The same deplorable type of people who will vote Tory no matter what.Слава Україні! Героям слава!Comment
