Boris Not Of Good Character?
To break your own law once as Prime Minister is bad enough. To break the same law several times in short succession, as Boris appears to have done, would mean that the British Prime Minister could fail the ‘good character’ test for those applying for British nationality.
The Home Office Guidance of September 2020 explains (p17): ‘A fixed penalty notice will not normally result in refusal [of nationality]...However, multiple fixed penalty notices over a short period of time could demonstrate a disregard for the law and therefore demonstrate that someone is not of good character.’

Being someone involved in creating the law and saying that he didn't consider it was being broken, suggests that maybe interpretation of the law's intent went awry. I can't see that being a big deal, and folk should get over it rather than try to ruin the existing government and expecting to replace it with something far worse for the nation.
Could you quantify or define what could possibly be worse than the current political and domestic situations of the general public right now?

As I had posted many moons ago (prior to Boris’s current woes), he has demonstrated that he is not a fit person to be placed in charge of the stationery cupboard, let alone the country.
For a British Prime Minster to be of such a low moral character – that they would fail an immigrant nationality test (as set by the British government) speaks more than anyone could ever say about Boris.

As tomus42 said in the post below - //This is boring. People who think Boris Johnson doesn't tell lies can't be reasoned with, much like Trump supporters. I wouldn't bother.//
The thread below is still worth a read, along with the links therein.
