Astonishing reversal of the political atmosphere in the United Kingdom: while Boris Johnson had almost succeeded in silencing the critics on his failed management of the health crisis in 2020 thanks to a successful vaccination campaign, the British Prime Minister is again surrounded by the business. Suspicion of lies and corruption at the highest level, the revelations have followed one another at such a rate for a few days that there is something to get lost in.
April 25, Daily Mail ensures that in October 2020, Boris Johnson would have launched, after a crucial meeting in Downing Street, about a second confinement – which was decreed at the end of October, for a month -, “I prefer to let thousands of dead pile up rather than a new f… confinement!” “ The Prime Minister strongly denied having said these words, Monday April 26 (” it makes no sense “). But the BBC maintained, Monday evening, that these remarks had indeed been made.
This is far from the first time that Mr Johnson, a successful ex-journalist, has indulged in language differences. At the start of the pandemic, for example, he would have baptized “Last breath operation” an urgent call to manufacture respirators to manufacturers. But the mention of “piles of bodies” was very badly received by bereaved families, grouped together in the collective “Bereaved Families for Justice UK”, who reacted by dozens on Twitter, explaining that their mothers, fathers, etc. died from the virus “Were not just bodies”. The collective, which has erected a very long “wall of remembrance” in the heart of London in tribute to the 128,000 victims of the health crisis in the country, calls (still in vain) for a public inquiry into the management of the pandemic by Downing Street .
Who paid for the very expensive renovation of the Prime Minister’s apartment at 1er floor of 11 Downing Street? Supervised, according to part of the British media, by Carrie Symonds, the companion of Boris Johnson (who would have been inspired by the interior designer Lulu Lytle), this renovation would have cost up to 200,000 pounds sterling, while the Prime Minister has only an envelope of 30,000 pounds a year for his private apartments. Who made the difference? Dominic Cummings, ex-special adviser to Boris Johnson, suspected of feeding the press with the revelations of the past few days, said in an inflammatory blog post on April 23 that the Prime Minister was counting on the generosity of “Donors ” who “Secretly pay” the bills.
