Some unkind souls reading this
story yesterday (“Boris Johnson stakes reputation on £12bn fix for
health and social care”) might have been asking themselves what reputation
the PM has left to stake on the outcome of anything. That is, though, to take a
very narrow view of the meaning of the word ‘reputation’. If we consider the PM’s
reputation to be one of bluster, mendacity, indecision and incompetence, there
can surely be little doubt that it will emerge as unscathed from what he
misleading chooses to call his social care plan as it has from everything else he’s
touched in life. Indeed, it will probably even be enhanced.
