Foolish peasant! Why would Johnson need to answer questions, the post is his by divine right.

Even if you accept this (rather feeble) justification, simply failing to respond to the invitation from ITV is amateurish. Most leaders who've pulled...

It's got absolutely nothing to do with Trump. Trump did all the debates in America didn't he? And he was challenger not favourite. There is a...

Neither do English Tories, apparently.

So do I understand correctly Boris doesn't believe in scrutiny of leadership candidates?

Don't think this is a weak response to adversity so much as it is strategic leveraging of strength in a dysfunctional political system. Johnson can...

Think he's accurately estimated RB's influenceability

I think you overestimate RB's influence ;-)

I'll call it - Boris will shout "fake news" and attack the media within 3 months of being PM. RB will agree with Boris, and Trumpism in the UK...

Regrettably (and I don't agree with it) he is following a very long established tradition in British politics.

If this is how he deals with minor adversity, how will he react to a trail crisis as PM? Is he going to hide for a week then, too?

All you need to know about the state of English democracy right now: the frontrunner is a lying Trumpist chancer who can only be harmed by scrutiny...

its not normal... conflict might be, but handling it so poorly that neighbors get involved is not...

I don't feel confident making sweeping statements about what's normal within private relationships. How a couple communicate behind closed doors is...

Some context and history: When that militia took over part of Oregon from Utah a few years ago, all the Republican presidential candidates,...

The Police give us reason to believe that everything is OK or at least there's zero evidence to the contrary and they were there within 5 minutes. ...

I haven't drawn any firm conclusions about what actually happened or about the dynamics of their relationship; as you say, we don't know what those...

Aren't we going a little bit overboard here? We have no actual idea about the dynamics of the relationship we're talking about. It's a little bit...

Can't wait for the right wing press to start moaning about the liberal bias in the media against poor Boris Johnson, as if they haven't done this to...

For you to lump this in with rapes and assaults etc is pretty sickening. Yes the vast majority don't come to the attention of the Police but how...

I'm grateful for The Telegraph's consistent respect for politicians right to a private life....

No, I mean he says dumb shit and lies for money, and is now peddling a slightly cleaned up version of Breitbartian bullshit that Trumpian suckers...

The majority of women who are killed by their partners have previously been violently assaulted by the same partners, and often the police have...

No comment on his lying and cheating then.

By dumbest commentator you mean he is a libertarian centre-right commentator who you don't agree with. Yes I do. Though it has f**k all to do with...

I've had that yes LOL, minus the get out of the house part as my wife does NOT want me to leave in the middle of the argument, her personality is she...

Toby Young is the dumbest commentator in British politics right now, and so I'm not surprised to see you so taken with his flavor of Breitbartian...

Mate, I don't know what fucked up dysfunctional experiences you've had, but if you're having fights with your partner where she has to shout at you...

I think this applies to a few here: https://www.spectator.co.uk/2019/06/are-you-suffering-from-boris-derangement-syndrome/ Can get around paywall...
