Hopefully, it can signal an actual change of direction for our media who have been frankly shocking and enabled this known liar to become Prime Minister. Maybe enough journalists can now see it's gone too far?
"What we all need to decide: what do we do when a known liar becomes our Prime Minister? I've talked to journalists from several television organisations about this issue. They said they would be loath to use that word 'liar'.
Remember when Andrew Marr told [former defence secretary] Penny Mordaunt her claim that the UK couldn't stop Turkey from joining the EU was 'strange'?
It was strange, but it was also untrue - a lie. Is it time for us to start using the L-word? I believe that we need to start calling politicians out as liars when they lie. If we continue to be so polite, how will our viewers know that politicians are lying?"

Imagine interviewing Trump with that mindset. "So, President Liar, you've told 16,532 lies in your term of office. What lies are you going tell today?" |
He'd be restricted to Twitter in a week. And then Twitter should ban him for inciting hate.
He'd then have to do the job of governing and being judged on his policies ...
Actually, maybe it is better him using all his time and energy on the media? | |
