Decisive action was required to nip this in the bud, they've not done that, the moral authority if not gone is in in question. and yet STILL Keir Starmer can't get a fatal blow in

There could only really be a fatal blow to Boris from this if he were directly implicated, and (so far at least) he doesn’t appear to be. This further erodes his moral authority as a leader but it isn’t the coup de grace. I actually thought Starmer got a good line in for once, referencing the Queen at Philip’s funeral, but he was working the moral authority line, not trying to claim direct culpability.
There is a larger plan at work here, by well-placed persons unknown, to drip-feed material into the public domain that will eventually fatally undermine Boris even without a smoking gun directly implicating him in something. It’s the death of a thousand cuts, nipping and slicing away until everyone is left wondering why on earth he’s still in charge. At that point someone will challenge him for the leadership.
