Who is popular today?

Boris Johnson has exposed himself as a "hypocritical, blundering leader" but will nevertheless hold onto power by default, says Spiked Online Chief Political Writer Brendan O'Neill.

Mr Johnson is currently facing pressure to resign, following a number of parties held at Downing Street while the country was under a lockdown.

Civil servant Sue Gray’s report on the issue is due to be published next week but with “minimal reference” to the alleged gatherings – after a specific request by the Metropolitan Police to avoid any influence on their own investigation.

"He's made rules for us, which he hasn't abided by himself and revealed that he is not a very serious leader himself," Mr O'Neill said.

"So I think lots of people are very disappointed."
