Boris Johnson was empty chaired by C4 with a block of ice.
The Conservatives went mental and have threatened to look at C4 broadcast remit.
This is illiberal and anti democratic.
Journalists are supposed to hold power to account on behalf of the public. If MPs don't turn up then they can't be held to account.
They have a duty to show. It's not good enough to avoid scrutiny because it might make you look bad. That's the whole point.
The contempt with which Johnson holds the press and public is reprehensible and you should be concerned whatever your political alligence. It allows corruption to fester without consequence.
And to then threaten C4 because they do their job in line with their responsibility as a broadcaster is alarming.
This is how authoritarian dictators work.
