Joe Lycett trolls Boris Johnson as he turns away from making Liz Truss’ life a misery!
It comes as Boris Johnson faced 90-day suspension for misleading MPs before he quit as an MP.
Johnson isn’t having it though he called the report is “a charade”, and that some of its arguments are “a load of complete tripe”.
He said: “I believed that we were working, and we were: talking for the main about nothing except work, mainly covid. Why would I have set out, in the Chamber, to conceal my knowledge of something illicit, if that account could be so readily contradicted by others? Why would we have had an official photographer if we believed we were breaking the law?
“We didn’t believe that what we were doing was wrong, and after a year of work the Privileges Committee has found not a shred of evidence that we did.
Lied
“Their argument can be boiled down to: ‘Look at this picture – that’s Boris Johnson with a glass in his hand. He must have known that the event was illegal. Therefore he lied.”
“That is a load of complete tripe. That picture was me, in my place of work, trying to encourage and thank my officials in a way that I believed was crucial for the government and for the country as a whole, and in a way which I believed to be wholly within the rules …
“This report is a charade. I was wrong to believe in the Committee or its good faith. The terrible truth is that it is not I who has twisted the truth to suit my purposes. It is Harriet Harman and her Committee.”

Returning to Joe Lycett, the comedian tweeted “Boris Johnson still my king.”
It began when he appeared on the Laura Kuenssberg show, when Lycett pretended to be a right winger!
Amusing!
