BoJo's childish action yesterday; sending unsigned the letter he was legally obliged to send and sending another contradictory letter at the same time, more or less along the lines of “they made me do it” smacked to me of a schoolchild telling a whopper with his fingers crossed behind his back, or this.

Meanwhile here is a Buddleia doing battle with a brick wall and coming out on top. The two things are unrelated.
