Johnson PM skips questioning
by House of Commons liaison committee
today to 'focus on Brexit'


The prime minister wrote to the
House of Commons liaison committee
to reveal he will no longer be appearing
before them on Thursday.
It is the third time he has postponed
or cancelled an appearance since entering
10 Downing Street in July.

It's not to focus on brexit, it's to avoid scrutiny - you know this.

British taxpayers face paying out for a large fine after the EU launched a legal action against Boris Johnson’s government over his failure to abide by the law and nominate a candidate for the new European commission.

Despite knowing for weeks that the UK would remain in the EU beyond 31 October, when a new EU executive had been due to be in place, Downing Street failed to put someone forward to join the bloc’s 28-strong top team.

Johnson instead belatedly claimed in a letter sent on Wednesday evening that he had been unable to make an international appointment due to purdah rules ahead of the general election on 12 December.

A spokeswoman for the European commission said the UK had breached its legal obligations despite the prime minister’s repeated claims in public that he would not defy the law.

Ahem... I posted this in Feb 2016.

''The immigration rules at the moment allow free movement from all EU nations and then quite significantly tighter rules from the rest of the world.

Our immigration rules will be fair to the world once we leave the European Union."
