Will you condemn Boris Johnson is completely ignoring the fact that 4 year old children are being treated on hospital floors? After 9 years of Tory rule.
Laura Kuenssberg:
Happy to apologiSe for earlier confusion about the punch that wasn’t a punch outside Leeds General - 2 sources suggested it had happened but clear from video that was wrong

Who are the Sources?
BBQ and Tomato
They go to a different school, you wouldn't know them.
Is apologiSe different from apologise?
I wonder if it will lead to her being a little bit more critical in her journalism in future when trusting these sources. It’s EXACTLY what Peter Osbourne criticised her for. She parrots whatever the government tell her without a second to think about it and and ends up looking like an idiot every time.
She’s done it too many times to be given the benefit of the doubt though. She’s either complicit and should be sacked or incompetent and should be sacked.

Jesus Christ, wtf is that shit?!?
The Johnson video is bizarre. Surely just looking at the picture and mumbling standard political spin that politicians do for the other 364 days of the year would've been easier.
Its called a covfefe. Give then a something benign and ridiculous to comment on to distract from the actual issue.
@girish can I have some gratitude please.
But but but Empire?!
outreach is going well in the comments
Colonial history should be taught in school, because honestly wtf is this
Capital investment along with a 2-3% annual growth in day to day spending was justifiable, but I'd argue the level of day to day spending sanctioned was not justifiable.
Blair and Brown spent like the country would never again see a recession. Which makes sense since they naively declared the end of the boom/bust cycle.
Nowadays there's an argument for capital expenditure but again large day to day expenditure increases given the large deficit I can't see a justification for (that's not to say funds shouldn't be reallocated between departments).
Yeah... I will actually
Johnson is a grade a cnut
He will win this election because labour have picked an unelectable leader... Under any normal circumstances he would be hammered
So you Brits are really going to go for 5 more years of this Tory bullshit? 2010 until 2025 basically? Then what? More?
Boris interview has got over 5 million views and its only 6 hours old.
Ladies and gents If you’re voting Tory THIS is what your vote counts towards.
I understand that.
And yet Gordon Brown was rated by many including his peers as a fiscally responsible Chancellor.
She's happy to apologise but doesn't do it. Is this the new "I've already apologised"?
Ffs I was brought to know that an apology means you say "I apologise" or "I'm sorry" not this roundabout shite.
@SteveJ - we need more Doritos and the chemical toilet needs cleaned out.
We did it from 1979-97 and we'll do it again!
This country has a sick dependency on The Conservatives.
This is the trouble with the political elite, folks - the minute you join the Pigeon Party, they expect you to clean the bogs & ladle snacks into their gold-toothed gobs.
"You're on the home straight, BoJack. You've managed to avoid those difficult interviews and avoid all those mistakes that May made that showed her true colours. The election is yours now - smooth sailing from here. Now you can enjoy some simple low key interviews with the smaller journos for a couple of days and then it's time to Get Breakfast Done. There's no way you can screw up now..."
Can't help but notice that you've kept pretty quiet since your whole judgemental attitude earlier when you thought the assault story was true.
Edit: actually you did address it a few comments up. Reading isn't my strength. Or writing. Or breathing without the help of a dozen servants to waft fresh air into my nostrils.
I'm sorry. If you've made yourself upset

What he’s been very clear about, is err... Jeremy Corbin, errr get Brexit done.
Or maybe the simple explanation is the correct one. Maybe it's the lack of proper funding.
Considering the fact that Tory MP's have written various books and articles about the dream of privatising the NHS and how to do it, I think it's fairly obvious why Boris had a "strange" reaction, as you put it.
Imagine not even appearing in order to be asked to make the apology.
Or even worse, imagine making multiple insincere apologies with no intention of making changes.
Your lot at The Sun and Guido both support that guy.
Imagine thinking somebody whose leadership has seen a traditionally anti racist party become the subject of an ehrc formal investigation is fit to lead the country... Thankfully it's only a small minority of people who think like that
Imagine a man who has campaigned against racism all of his life being called a racist. By racists in opposition.
Anybody watching the QT special?
You...do understand that racists didn't just magically appear when Corbyn became leader, right?
I mean, not in the same way that racists all appeared during the Brexit referendum. Because it wasn't like those people were always racist.
Also, accusing someone who has fought against racism his entire political career of being racist or personally advocating racist ideals in his party is a pretty fecking big claim to make.
There's something that sticks in the throat a little about a newspaper that used Hitler as a light hearted template to insult a miner trying to take the moral high ground when it comes to anti-Semitism. Almost as hypocritical as that other paper that openly supported racists during the 1930s.
