Is there any personal responsibility here? Is it “the government” that would be breaking a law or the pm himself? Likewise, if someone suffers harm, economic or otherwise, as a result of a decision to not seek an extension would they claim against the government or against the person?
I can see Johnson not seeking an extension if the risk is socialised, but can’t see it happening if he runs personal risk.
