[Politics] Boris Johnsons apology

[crodonilson]

Now you've had the chance to digest yesterday's historic events what did you make of Boris Johnsons apology?

 

[barbus_max bhafc]

Who cares - don’t give a stuff.

 

[One Teddy Maybank]

He’s definitely sorry, sorry he got caught….

Meant the apology IMO, because he was desperate…..

 

[Swansman]

I accept it.

What did he apologise for?

 

[Bob!]

What did he apologise for?

Getting fined.

 

[portslade seagull]

Should've apologised right at the start. Too late now

[Worthing exile]

Getting fined.

Knowing him, he will probably claim it backs as expenses.

 

[father_and_son]

Of the opinion now that he is either a) dishonest and knew exactly what he was doing was wrong and didn't care, or b) was too stupid to know what we have doing was wrong. Sort of, to my mind, got to be one or the other as don't see a third option. Both, IMHO disqualify him from pretty much every senior role in every industry/company and especially as Prime Minister.

I hate to say, I disagree. I don’t think he gives a stuff about being caught. Caught by the plebs? The ghastly working man? The Met police who are frankly his Praetorian Guard? He couldn’t give a sideways fart.

He doesn’t care less what anyone thinks of him.

A Johnson apology? The one to Liverpool? https://www.theguardian.com/media/2004/oct/16/pressandpublishing.conservativeparty

The one where he lied to his boss about lying about his private life? https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2004/nov/14/uk.conservatives

When he was sacked from the Times for making up quotes? https://www.pinknews.co.uk/2013/03/...g-edward-ii-and-his-gay-lover-piers-gaveston/

When he called Muslim women pillar boxes? https://www.express.co.uk/news/poli...mophobia-inquiry-burqa-bank-robber-letter-box

When he wouldn't return from holiday when the city he was mayor of was in flames? https://www.standard.co.uk/hp/front...ng-to-return-from-holiday-abroad-6430659.html

To Nazanin Zaghari for keeping her in prison for another five years? https://www.independent.co.uk/news/...-prison-husband-daughter-letter-a9226936.html

For the lie about the NHS on the bus? https://www.independent.co.uk/voice...te-leave-campaign-jeremy-corbyn-a9204591.html

For lying to the Queen about the legality of proroguing parliament? https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/ar...rt-ruled-prorogation-Parliament-unlawful.html

Or the other apology to the Queen as his office was on the lash the night before she was made to sit alone at her husband's funeral? https://www.reuters.com/world/uk/uk...rtied-queen-mourned-death-husband-2022-01-14/

Or has he finally apologised to Stuart Collier for conspiring with the fraudster Marcus Guppy to have him assaulted? https://www.theguardian.com/politic...hnson-phone-call-darius-guppy-demands-apology

Oops, my mistake. Just noticed that the OP refers to yesterday's apology. Oh I'm sure that one was sincere. Whatever could ever make anyone think that he might be apologising to dig himself out of a hole that he dug with his own lies?

 

[The Clamp]

Anyone else with his history of lying would be on the streets by now.

 

[Greg Bobkin]

As with pretty much everything else that comes out of his mouth, I don't believe a word of it.

 

[Insel affe]

He does not care a flying feck about the general public, his contempt was evident by his actions during a world wide pandemic.

The man is an embarrassment to the country.

 

[Dr Q]

complete and utter
Scruffy, lying embarrassment to Parliament and the country as a whole. Single handily lost the UK's standing on the international stage.

 

[BadFish]

What has he got to apologise for? He has done exactly what it said on the tin.

The majority voted for his party and they got what they voted for.

 

[RandyWanger]

Sorry, not sorry.

Living on the international stage I would say that voting for Brexit did a fair bit of damage in this regard.

Exactly - the turkeys voted for Christmas and got it

 

[ConfusedGloryHunter]

Surely no one actually believes anything he says? It is a bizarre state of affairs that honesty in politicians is a weakness.
