An era of outrageous leaders

Below is a damning article by Max Hastings on Boris Johnson.

But it's clear the more outrageous the stories we hear about Boris Johnson the better his chances of being the UK's next prime minister.

Just as it is with Donald Trump. In the last days another woman has come forward making allegations of sexual abuse against the president. She is number 16.

Trump's reply 'She's not my type'. Outrageous but makes his followers more resolute in their support for him.

We seem to have the weirdest and oddest of leaders.
