Rock and a hard place

There are 100 rooms in no 10 Downing Street and up to 400 staff, civil servants and advisers working there.

how was Boris Johnson supposed to keep an eye on them all during the pandemic?

The inquiry into whether or not he misled Parliament was compromised as soon as the wording was changed from ‘deliberately’ to ‘intentionally or unintentionally’.

he brought in the Covid restrictions on the advice of experts. Many ignored them; most of us bent them. I don’t care if Boris did, too.

The pressure that he was under, with half the country complaining the restrictions were too harsh and half that they weren’t harsh enough, must have been horrendous.

Who would have wanted his job during those times?
