Voters do not believe a raft of key claims in Boris Johnson’s new memoir, covering everything from Prince Harry to Covid, according to a new poll.
Mr Johnson was found to have lied to parliament over Partygate late-night bashes in Downing Street while the rest of the country was under Covid restrictions. And since the release of his new book Unleashed key passages have been disputed. Now a new poll by YouGov has found that Britons struggle to believe the claims.
Just 35 per cent said they believed that former prime minister David Cameron had warned Mr Johnson he would “fuck you up forever” if he did not support Remain during the Brexit referendum, with the rest saying they did not believe him or did not know.
