I don’t think there is much doubt that Johnson is the most personally repulsive PM in British history. But by focussing exclusively on ‘character’ it’s easy to forget the ‘characters’ who brought him to power, and the political forces that used him for their own purposes.
For example…the donors 
And the party members…
And the advisers…
And the journalists…
And lets not forget the voters…
So many more people waved him on. Cheered him on…even if they later turned against him. They were good times…Fun times
Only a few examples from an extensive list. All of them complicit in his resistible rise. And as we career from one lie and disaster to the next, all of them should take a good look at themselves. And we should take a good look at them and ask ‘what the fuck did you expect?’
