Responding to Jeremy Hunt refusing to answer if Boris Johnson is an honest man, Liberal Democrat Business spokesperson Sarah Olney MP said: “Britain needs new leadership to get through this cost of living crisis yet all we have is unfair tax hikes and a Prime Minister who can’t tell the truth. Jeremy Hunt is too cowardly to say what everyone else in Britain is thinking. Boris Johnson is a serial liar and not fit to govern this country.

“It is time Jeremy Hunt carried out his patriotic duty and called time on Boris Johnson as Prime Minister.”
“As a Surrey MP Jeremy Hunt should know the sheer anger felt in former Conservative heartlands at this Government. From Chesham and Amersham to last week’s local election results, it is clear the public have had enough. Britain can’t wait any longer. Conservative MPs need to stop shirking their responsibility.”
