// Some on the PM's own benches, including Commons defence committee chair Tobias Elwood, echoed the criticism, tweeting: "Let's stop this drift towards a Trumpian style of politics from becoming the norm." //

It’s the way I see it gromit .

I understand the cut and thrust of political debate.
However, given the recentish murders of two sitting MPs, and given the general stupidity of the population it behoves ALL MPs to take care with what they say about each other (including apologising if necessary)

[bednobs]

ps i see ellipsis answered exactly the same (but much more eloquently) on the "starmer attacked" thread.
Sorry E!

[Old_Geezer]

No point in apologising for nothing. Protesters of that sort will use any excuse, and apparently had many of them they were using that day. As for Boris' comment, as far as I know Mr, Savile wasn't ever prosecuted, so it was correct.

Boris should not Apologise....It's the members of the Public who voted Conservative that should Apologise for giving the UK the biggest manhood of a PM ever.

I know my memory is a bit faulty over some things but I seem to recall that Boris was forced to apologise over some inexcusable remarks he made about the relatives of Liverpool football supporters. He did this in a very reluctant back-handed and insincere way, I also seem to remember.

Sorry but I can't do links.

The fact that as Leader of the Opposition, Starmer is a fairly useless, doesn't suddenly absolve Johnson from a similar more pronounced sobriquet.

[ToraToraTora]

"Boris Won’t Apologise." - for what, putting up a fight when being attacked? Rodders got slapped and didn't like it, nowt to apologise for.

[William51]

He does not need to apologise. He did condemn the bad behaviour directed at Starmer and that is sufficient.
