Boris Johnson joins campaign in last-ditch effort to thwart Labour

Boris Johnson has joined the election campaign trail at the eleventh hour, warning that a Labour landslide victory is “pregnant with horrors” and deriding Nigel Farage as a “Kremlin crawler”.
The former prime minister appeared before Rishi Sunak at a campaign rally in central London in a last-ditch attempt to win back disaffected Conservative voters.
Johnson had been expected to sit out the election campaign but is said to be “vociferously angry and upset” about the prospect of a Labour landslide. He warned Tory voters that Labour would “whack up taxes” and “persecute private enterprise and education and healthcare”.

Mr Stewart made the comments in a review for the Times Literary Supplement of Tom Bower’s biography of Mr Johnson, The Gambler. Rejecting Mr Bower’s generous account of Mr Johnson’s character, Mr Stewart said that the prime minister had reached the pinnacle of political life by flaunting, rather than hiding, his “lack of moral conviction”, acting as a “carnival lord of misrule” in order to capitalise on the public’s distrust of elites. “Johnson is … the most accomplished liar in public life - perhaps the best liar ever to serve as prime minister,” he said. “He has mastered the use of error, omission, exaggeration, diminution, equivocation and flat denial. He has perfected casuistry, circumlocution, false equivalence and false analogy. He is equally adept at the ironic jest, the fib and the grand lie; the weasel word and the half-truth; the hyperbolic lie, the obvious lie, and the bullshit lie - which may inadvertently be true.”
