"Which part do you suggest shows his impartiality?
Has he missed anything about Johnson’s past, his lies, his misdemeanours ?
"
The fact that he nearly died
How does he know this exactly?
Amd even he did
1,)why is it relevant ?
2 )it was his own stupid fault.
And I'm.really not sure london is England's biggest left wing city. |

It’s obviously not your cup of tea. That’s ok. |

For anyone interested, a lot of people have been tweeting about it, from all across the political spectrum.
May have something to do with it generally being very well received as an insightful piece of writing.
Up to the reader to decide that though, and as previously mentioned, it may not be everyone's cup of tea depending on what you are expecting it to be.

So other than the sentence early in the piece, “We know that he has been fired twice for lying (once as a journalist, once as a politician); that he was the Conservative mayor of Britain’s left-wing capital city; that he helped engineer the defenestration of two prime ministers from his own party; and that he very nearly died during the pandemic.”, and that Laura Kuenssberg tweeted a link (without review or comment of the piece) - what other aspects of the piece do you dislike?
