Voice of The Mirror: When Boris says he doesn't want election - we know he does

Boris Johnson is a stranger to the truth so when this serial liar claims he doesn’t want a General Election we know he does.

This Tory Prime Fibber is a reckless and dangerous charlatan.

He’s the head of a ragtag government threatening to defy the law and sidelining Parliament because he’s terrified of its sovereignty.

This hypocrite vows to dump MPs who vote against Brexit – as he did twice.

Britain quitting Europe without a deal would be an economic calamity, destroying jobs, smashing living standards and imposing trade taxes.

So the Kamikaze PM should stop pretending it’s a viable option.

Protesters heard booing at Prime Minister during statement on Brexit

The 2016 referendum did not ask for a nuclear Brexit and our European allies know even Johnson realises it would be a disaster.

MPs must this week vote for sanity and rule out a Halloween horror before Jeremy Corbyn and others decide on a General Election.

Demonstrators shouting “stop the coup” over Johnson as he delivered a Conservative Party Political Broadcast in Downing Street underlined how divided the country is.

He should be careful what he wishes for.

Care fee plea

Self-payers are forced to pay more than councils do for elderly care (Dominic Lipinski)

Private care home fees costing up to £18,356 more than local authority places show why we need a lot more council provision for the elderly and vulnerable.

The private sector’s average £44,252 annual bill against £31,270 for local authorities is typically £1,000 a month added to the financial burden on families wanting relatives protected.

Social care was a victim of callous Tory austerity, which was a political assault on vital services for ideological, not economic, reasons.

We desperately need a fairly funded National Care Service to look after everybody, irrespective of their means, something which Labour planned and the Tories nastily blocked.

Earache hotel

The noisy Elvis impersonator fined £9,000 for leaving neighbours All Shook Up might be wise to obey the law.

Or he’ll be in for a jailhouse shock.
