Good morning. It's three minutes after 10. You are listening to James O'Brien on LBC, for which I should

thank you. I don't think I mentioned it yesterday. 80,000 more people tuning into this program than during

the last calendar quarter, which is frankly ridiculous. But obviously, with mortgages to pay and

If you'd fall in for Boris Johnson's countless calumnies and corruptions,

if you'd defended them, if you'd excused them,

if you were still pretending that he wasn't fired for a succession of hideous transgressions

and was fired, or indeed, dispatched by his own members,
