Dave, If Boris lied, the opposition would call for his resignation.
They do not.
You lied when you described the recent strikes as "bombing the shit out of Syria."

Jim,
You choose to believe enemies of the West "

Why do you? Western countries are liberal democracies whose actions and claims are scrutinised by opposition parties and a free media.

Russia has been exposed as lying repeatedly and has none of those checks and balances on what it says and does.

You choose to believe what Putin's proven liars say for your own extreme political purposes.
