Johnson repeatedly refusing to look at picture of a four year old child on a hospital floor when confronted by an ITV reporter. After refusing to so much as glance at the photo, he then proceeds to pocket the reporters phone(!?) while mouthing empty platitudes. Here’s a link,but I’m sure you’ll see it on the news anyway..

Was he having a bad day? Nah, it’s Johnson to a T: a privileged, uncaring, unashamed bullshitter, out for number one. Does this man represent our country?

“ Like I said before, any PM is just a flawed human being, not an omnipotent, omnipresent God, so it's ridiculous to hold the PM responsible for every single bad thing that happens in this country.”
I don’t. I do hold him responsible for his response, though. There were several different responses he could have given to being shown the picture - all of them better than what he did.
Incidentally, it is inconceivable that he would not have seen the front page of the Mirror before he went out campaigning.
