Lying liars and the lies they tell...
Nick Cohen has a great piece in The Observer today
Lies come in all shapes and sizes. This government is familiar with them all
Worth clicking on the link to read of all it - but the summary in the final paragraph is a thing of beauty
It lied last week as it lies every week. It lies to the Queen. It lies to parliament. It lies to the electorate. It lies to itself. It lies as a matter of policy. It lies as a matter of course. It lies when it doesn’t need to lie. It lies because it doesn’t know what else to do. It lies because it is all it can do. This is a government that lies.

We are ruled by the worst lying liars in living memory, led by an innervate liar and upheld by a bunch of far right sycophantic liars. After all to support a liar you have to lie - and BoJo is the biggest liar of than all.
