Scottish Greens: The game is up for Johnson
Commenting on the resignations from Boris Johnson’s cabinet this evening, Scottish Greens MSP Gillian Mackay said:
“Boris Johnson has always been unfit to hold public office.
“It is of course welcome to see his Cabinet finally move against him, but we shouldn’t let them pretend it is for anything other than self-serving reasons.
“The Prime Minister’s actions over the course of the weekend are exactly what we’ve come to expect from the lying lawbreaker currently in residence at number ten.
“As communities across Scotland and the UK struggle to deal with the worst cost of living crisis in decades, Johnson’s government has been engulfed in sleaze, scandal and general incompetence, offering little help to those struggling the most.
“It’s clear that the game is up for Johnson. His time in Downing Street is coming to an end.
“What’s also clear is that anyone with even a shred of credibility must conclude that the people of Scotland have a right to decide that they do not wish to live under governments that they have never voted for, led by the likes of Mr Johnson.”
