Boris Johnson lied about Turkey
‘I didn’t say anything about Turkey’
In January Boris Johnson claimed he did not mention Turkey during the referendum after it was suggested he falsely claimed 80 million Turks would come to Britain unless the UK left the EU.
In fact, he co-signed a letter stating that “the only way to avoid having common borders with Turkey is to vote Leave and take back control”. The Vote Leave campaign also produced a poster reading: “Turkey (population 76 million) is joining the EU”, adding “David Cameron wants Turkey to join the EU. How will our NHS cope?”."

"In his long-awaited memoirs, David Cameron lashed out at his erstwhile friend and Government colleague, saying Mr Johnson had left the “truth at home” over Brexit and accused him of “sharp practices” in his deeply contentious move to prorogue the UK Parliament. The ex-Tory leader also branded Cabinet Office Minister Michael Gove, another leading Leaver, “mendacious” and even referred to him as a “w****r”."

"The head of Channel 4 News Dorothy Byrne sparked a furore recently after saying that Boris Johnson is a “known liar”.
These words were in the context of a speech in which she said journalists should not be afraid to call lies what they are – instead of using euphemisms like ‘strange claims’."

Why did the MPs vote for him and why did the Conservative members vote for him?
They all must have known these things.
Then there is Trump.
What the hell is going on?

"when the Daily Telegraph is willing to defend its own columnist against charges of fabrication to a press standards organisation on the grounds that Johnson’s reputation precludes anyone from the error of believing him, then it is clear – to use the language of Alcoholics Anonymous – that the people who enable liars are more culpable than the liars themselves."
"It would be hard to see what possible identity would be left to Johnson if, even for a moment, he stopped lying. He did, after all, repeatedly promise Londoners he would finish two terms as mayor before pursuing personal ambition. It was inevitable that when proroguing parliament Johnson would lie tactically, claiming, for legal reasons, that the suspension had nothing to do with closing down democracy on Brexit. Those people who felt freshly insulted by the obviousness of his lies have simply not been following the story so far. The far more interesting question is why so many people are happy he should get away with it."
"Those waiting for a public inquiry into the mismanagement of Brexit will wait a very long time. And yet right-wing journalists continue to mock those who call Johnson out. Nowhere is he more stoutly defended than among the hacks he disgraced. They think it’s hilarious that Britain is run by a journalist. Not even they can try to deny his character – they use the weasel word “flawed” – but they accuse anyone who thinks him dangerous of lacking a sense of humour. The word “synthetic” is always nailed on to the word “outrage”. It is represented as po-faced to take Johnson’s lies any more seriously than he takes them himself."

Boris Johnson lies about a kipper
A spokesperson for the commission said that while traders had an obligation to meet microbiological requirements to ensure the safety of food, the sale of products from food businesses to consumers was not covered by EU legislation on food hygiene.
“The case described by Mr Johnson falls outside the scope of the EU legislation and it’s purely a UK national competence, so I hope this is clear and the rules must be checked with the national authorities,” a commission spokesperson said during a briefing to journalists on Thursday.

Boris Johnson lies about a pork pie
"As if to illustrate Byrne’s point though, Johnson lied again yesterday, claiming that Melton Mowbray pork pies were exported to Thailand and Iceland but not to the US.
The head of the Melton Mowbray Pork Pie Association disputed this. He said they aren’t exported to Thailand and Iceland and, because they are made of fresh meat and have a short shelf life, exports to the US aren’t viable either."

The sad thing is, quitters and Trump fans believe every word or simply do not care.
I thought you were more intelligent than that
It is a typical and often repeated response from a Brexiteer.
Of course what is breaking news is we are now so far down the Brexit rabbit hole, Brexiteers applaud being lied to.
They dont have the brains to stand back and realise: Ive been told constant lies about Brexit, its because it is a con.
Nope they have condone it by pathetic arguments

What Max Hastings said about Johnson:
He’s always been a fantasist. He’s never had much grip on reality,” he said.
“With Johnson everything’s always been about Johnson and the only people who think he’s a nice guy are those who don’t know him.”
He added: “He’s less fit to be Prime Minister than my Labrador
