I wasn’t going to wade into the Boris Johnson wedding hullabaloo until I watched “Have I Got News for You” on Friday night.

The prime minister’s nuptials came up, and guest Clive Myrie said, “There’s clearly one canon law for the rich and one canon law for the poor.” (In his defence, he was quoting some unnamed priest.)

Ian Hislop then joined in.

“It’s a technicality," Hislop said. "Obviously, the country was amazed that Boris should be failing to obey the rules in terms of his marriage as well as everything else."
