Understanding politics through the medium of Dr Who.
Lesson 1. Judging the actions of a Prime Minister.
There is a distinction between an illegal act, such as murder, and an unlawful act, such as making things up to get your own way.
I mean, if Boris had just gone into Number 10, called a cabinet meeting, declared everyone there to be a traitor and then killed them all, it would be illegal, right? Whereas if he were to lie in order to further his own cause that would be unlawful, but not necessarily illegal.
