Today's papers are being tough on Boris Johnson. Good. But we also need to be tough on the causes of Boris Johnson: the celebrification of politics, the influence on British life of newspapers owned by non-dom millionaires, Brexit and the associated populist nationalism /1

Boris Johnson skipped five Cobra meetings on the virus, calls to order protective gear were ignored and scientists’ warnings fell on deaf ears Failings in February may have cost thousands of lives thetimes.co.uk/edition/news/…
