BJ has rewritten the Ministerial Code ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ministerial_Code ). Now Government Ministers can misbehave without punishment. I assume so he doesn't have to resign. Another step on the way to a fascist state.
This is very bad news given what has gone on and is going on.
Quote from that wiki article:
"The Code is periodically updated. The 2015 update included removing the explicit requirement that ministers comply with international law and treaty obligations."
So, this predates BJ by some years. He's just extending it to the domestic.
Hmmmm! That's bad. These Tories are so bad. They done it. But BJ has now taken out all words like honest, truthful, moral, integrity, trust etc. (I don't have the article to hand that listed the words so that's from what I vaguely remember).
More Tory MPs are calling for BJ to resign. It's quite possible that the required 54 letters to the 22 Committee will be reached but that managing to get the backing of 181 Tories would be enough to make it fail. Then we'd be stuck with him for another year.
