Lurching from disaster to disaster, Boris Johnson displays the sure-footedness of a recklessly incompetent PM. A marginally less mean pay rise would be no cause for celebration when a cynical, politically calculating Conservative leader is concerned above all else with saving his skin. The insulting 1% proposal confirms the Prime Minister lacks decent values, reasonable instincts or a moral compass. Just as Marcus Rashford had to shame Johnson into feeding school children, the great British public has humiliated him into acknowledging a debt of honour. People will be split, siding with or against Harry and Meghan as they noisily make their new life and fortune as celebrity Royals.
