A simple question requires a simple answer .....
Aye, so he has the funds to wallpaper a flat, but not to pay for a nanny...and apparently he took a pay cut when he became prime minister, according to the media. So...did he have a big win at the bookies or something?

Labour accuses Boris Johnson of lying over flat renovation costs

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-56903838

Labour has accused Boris Johnson of lying over who paid for renovations to his Downing Street flat.

Pressure is growing on the PM to reveal details after his ex-adviser, Dominic Cummings, claimed he planned for donors to "secretly pay" for the work.

Mr Johnson's spokesman has refused to say whether he received a loan from the Conservative Party to cover the costs.

But shadow health secretary Jonathan Ashworth has demanded a "full and frank" explanation from the PM.

Speaking to BBC Breakfast, the Labour MP said: "We really need to know who's given the loan, who's given the money, because we need to know who the prime minister...is beholden to.

"To be honest he lied yesterday - that's not good enough."
No parliamentary privilege outside the House .....

Yes...I liked the bit where it says "we need to know who the prime minister is beholden to"

Re: Carrie Symonds and the Gold Wallpaper

This all happened during the time of the worst world pandemic ever. Don’t you think he had more on his mind than to give any thought to something as trivial as wallpaper and who paid for it?
What do some of you want? Blood?

Let’s talk about the good positive things he has done and not the negative things. Like making sure we were one of the first nations to secure the vaccinations and roll them out at speed.

It just bothers me that he is so evasive about where the money came from? If it wasn't a big deal, why hide it? And it did happen at a time where priorities and funding lay elsewhere. I agree he did well with the vaccine program, and I'm delighted he is making sure other countries like India are getting the ventilators etc (even if I do have reservations about why he is doing it). But I do wish he would be direct and honest about the things he is in the news for.....
