Summary
I think it’s a cumulation — culminating in something that we all feel very strongly about.”Gale called Johnson’s attenuated apology “crass” and contrasted his own family’s isolation during the pandemic to the parties at the prime minister’s office.The scandal comes at a time when Johnson may have overstayed his usefulness to his party, said Steven McCabe, associate professor at Birmingham City University.Johnson’s resounding 2019 electoral success came on the back of his “Get Brexit Done” pledge to leave the European Union once and for all.But that Johnson did, in fact, get Brexit done may have made him expendable rather than essential.“I think what we’re beginning to see is the sort of breaking of ranks,” McCabe said, adding that what the Tories are most interested in is retaining power.
