Boris blusters his way around his £40m garden bridge fiasco




The foreign secretary’s past is catching up with him, but he really doesn’t seem to care

This hasn’t been the best of weeks for the foreign secretary. First he got caught out comparing Northern Ireland to London’s congestion charge zone. Then a letter he wrote to the prime minister suggesting a hard border was a price worth paying for Brexit got leaked to Sky News.
Now he had to face the Greater London Authority’s oversight committee to explain why, when he was London mayor, he had wasted the best part of £40m on a garden bridge project for the Thames that never got built. There’s a growing sense the past is beginning to catch up with him. The noose is tightening and there will be a reckoning to be paid.
