"Come off it. You are saying quite clearly that Labour's woes are worse because they are current and that Boris's woes are less important because they were a while ago. What a completely ludicrous argument, even for you."

Are you being deliberately obtuse Shaw, or are you just incapable of comprehension?

What I am have been demonstrating is that as far as some are concerned for a Labour MP who has in the past, by her own admission, made racist remarks a simple apology is enough to wipe the slate clean and allows her to resume her career in politics with her reputation unblemished. Different thing entirely for those same people on this forum however if the politician happens to be from the Conservative Party he must be barred from holding any Office because some think he made "racist" remarks 14 years ago and apologised for them 10 years ago. If you cannot see the difference in the treatment being handed out in those two cases Shaw then you are beyond all hope.

Back on the subject of the thread, there was a very good reason why Theresa May appointed Boris Johnson Foreign Secretary and it has obviously escaped the notice of the likes of you, Raggy and Jom. Boris Johnson led the Brexit "Leave" campaign in the UK - As the UK's Foreign Secretary, after the UK's Prime Minister, he, Boris Johnson will be the UK's main representative in the EU Council of Ministers until the time we come to actually leave.
