 Some people wanted Boris Johnson condemned long before Covid-19 arrived and long before they turned the question of considering whether his “performance” regarding the management of the problem deserved condemnation. This means that it was, for them, always inevitable that they would bring in a guilty verdict and that their marshalling of scientific evidence to give their verdict an air of respectability and credibility and the impression that it was carefully considered in an objective manner is really a sham of seriousness. We may have respected them more had they not dishonestly and disgracefully used such a sad and unfortunate ordeal merely as a means to an end they always wanted.
