At the very least, the case reminds us that Johnson is unable to live within his substantial means – even with free housing and donors who rely on themselves to provide him with luxury meals and holidays. .

Simon Clarke and Lee Anderson immediately question why nurses earning £35k are using food banks, but why Boris Johnson, who earned a salary of £164k as PM, is silent on the need for an £800k loan and a Tory Donner was also asked to pay £50k towards the refurbishment of Number 10.

I feel sorry for Boris Johnson, he has to arrange an £800,000 ‘credit’ because he can’t afford his £164k salary, book royalties, rent free flat and favors and mansions. I forget sometimes what it’s like for ordinary people like him.

At worst, it makes the president’s appointment look like – as Johnson might say – compensatory.
Here he is, taking a dig at the BBC, not denying any of it.

James O’Brien Addressed the growing controversy. This ‘Check Your Blood Pressure!’ Warning.
James O’Brien lashes out at Boris Johnson’s alleged £800k debt:
’30p Lee told the nurses to eat porridge while the man they knelt down for was so bad at managing his own finances he had to set up a 6 figure line of credit…’@mrjamesob pic.twitter.com/fNQ36epNNs

‘The nurses are only using foodbanks because they are too poor to budget, while the man for whom all these clowns kneeled down was too bad to manage his own finances and was six-and-a-half years old because of the kids. There were a lot of demands on figure earnings. that he remained the father – casually to use Nadim Zahavi’s language – that they had to set up a six-figure, £800,000 line of credit for him so that he could keep the ship afloat.’
It spoke directly to many who shared similar reactions.
