Read the original article on dailymail.com (opens in a new tab)Boris Johnson's column for the Daily Mail argues that Andy Burnham has broken a pre-election pledge not to reopen Brexit and that the planned UK-EU deal is a betrayal. The column is heated, but it backs its central charge with Burnham's own dated words. Nothing in the supplied material shows that its figures mislead, that it makes a false claim, or that it vilifies a community. As an opinion piece its argument is not a finding, and nothing in it misleads on the tests that apply.
Opinion piece: read for false claims of fact and for fairness to the people it names, not for its opinions.
