You forgot the inverted commas.

That he had sex with, allegedly.

Friend with benefits

Has anyone checked to see if Johnson and Trump are actually related?

Your little bit of stuff is shagging behind your back BorisJohnson

He should be MADE to answer. This wasn’t his money to give away. It was OUR money. Liar, cheater, fraudster, thief

Anybody know why this kind of scandal used to destroy a politician career. But with Boris its accepted? We need a better type of politician and media!

Iceman_cometh1

If only Parliament was working.... Should we add this to the list of reasons for proroguing?

laruedupass Is it his *friend* or his brother's *friend*? I'm struggling to keep up now 🤔

Law-avoiding Citizen

Narrator: 'He did'

No doubt there are journalist camped outside Boris Johnson's house hoping for an answer, or a least a cup of tea and a jolly ol' laugh. ComplicitMedia

No deal is the best deal Brexit

Call it what it is theft and fraud

Removal from his job, or a place at her Madge's pleasure? I wonder which'll happen first? I s'pose it depends upon who he bribes...

What? He's refusing to answer questions. Take him court, sue his behind. We're fed of this get getting away with allsorts over the years.

This corrupt little sh1t clearly is not suitable to be in No10.

He seriously thinks he's going to get away with this. Every journalist should keep asking the question at every opportunity until he caves in. BorisJohnson is not above the law.

“Boris Johnson repeatedly declines to say whether he has resigned”

Hey, bbclaurak how about this story You're so busy trying to undermine the Labour Conference that your mate BorisJohnson is getting a free pass - again!

Your time in politics is up now BorisJohnson 10DowningStreet you tragic joke of a human being

I think he calls them bum girls.

Well at least the response isn’t a barefaced lie this time. improvement fuckboris

So he did

Can’t begin to imagine what caused the then married Mayor to favour this young lady......

‘Friend’

It’s normally the little prick that brings down the mighty!

GovHowardDean E looks like he throws his clothes in the air then runs under them.

People need to care more about this. Boris is dodgy and fraudulent and if this had been about Corbyn, people would be baying for blood. No matter what your political preferences are, Boris needs to be held accountable for his dodgy actions. shameful

Seems Boris expects the British taxpayer to subsidise his shagging.

Is not his friend anymore, then it’s ok

GovHowardDean Really makes you want to re-examine the phrase 'friends with benefits'

GovHowardDean There is a name for it

Trump mark 2 collusion/corruption theory. Next thing MSM will be running a Boris Russia collusion conspiracy

Is that Stormy UK Daniels ? wow

He might be smarter than Trump, but he's no less crooked.

Another case of Johnson do as I say not, not as I do.

Katelawley1Kate Well, keep asking the questions.

If PM did it then he would be questioned in future. Public funds comes public who doing everyday their best to keep country up and government running day to day business. You said, people is my boss and I will work flat out and would be personally responsible. Don't forget it.

what do you expect

robevansgdn Anyone ask him about Crispin Odey ?

Seems fairly clear that some serious questions need to be asked here that he must be obliged to answer.

She just did a great job that blew him away.

Corruption is strong among these people

“Declines to comment” = “guilty as charged mlud” & and absolutely nothing is mentioned on SkyNews BBCNews. desperatetimes

Johnson '...was also banned from providing undue benefits to friends.” Friends with benefits....?

Another good reason to illegally shut down parliament, stops even more awkward questions

smartmax900 If she is pretty and it's the tax payer's money anyway, how could BorisJohnson say 'no'?

The most expensive shag ever

russelljj He seems to be prepared to take the country to war with Iran in order to distract from this corruption charge-or have I misunderstood

He's dirty , fraud and shady no accountability & transparency in British democracy (two Fundamental principles of Democracy missing in Britain)

Grant Schapps on BBCr4today explaining why government couldn’t help Thomas Cooke, claimed Johnson helping his lover was fine. Corruption rules

Why would he comment when he has no need to? Boris doesn't answer to the Guardian or its readers. He only answers to a few fatcats who put him where he is.

Definitely looks like Johnson in drag

No change there then.....😂

What about the shagging?

Please get to the bottom of this

Even more Trump-like then we thought...

If true, very shabby!

The Bo.Job

How does he sleep at night, shameful.

A liar and a thief? How is he still a PM, Conservatives ?

He gave Joanna Lumley's bullshit idea of building a garden bridge millions of pounds after she wrote him a letter. Total waste of money.

He should be invited to comment in front of the GLA for breaking its code of conduct.

Our Prime Minister believes that the law doesn't apply to him.

How is he allowed to decline to comment?!!!

He is as much a liar and corrupt politician as Trump

The picture means something

All Fascists are grifters.
