Basically he has been telling lies all his life, plus various other forms of bad behaviour, and been sacked for it on a number of times. It got to the point that no senior Conservative politician was prepared to go in front of the media and say "Johnson says that XX didn't happen, and I believe him". They ran out of people to go in front of the media a few days ago, the final straw that broke the camel's back was Johnson saying he had no idea that ZZ had a history of making unwanted sexual advances to men & women - and it turned out that Johnson had been fully briefed on that specific issue only (approx) 3 years ago. He couldn't stop himself telling lies etc, and it all finally caught up with him.I realize this isn't a UK thread, but can someone sum up the actual factual reasons why Boris seemingly was forced to resign? I find this fascinating and hope it doesn't somehow spill into other EU leaders causing instability...
(I hope that is enough about UK politics for this thread - I was really trying to explain why nobody in Ukraine should be concerned.)
