Abstract

174 signatories call upon the RIBA to revoke the Hon. Fellowship awarded to Boris Johnson in 2011, because as a representative of the profession his integrity and propriety does not meet the proscribed standards as a fit and proper person, on five counts. The five counts include acting unlawfully (on the determination of the Supreme Court); improperly stymying Parliament (on the determination of the Scottish Session Court); propriety & conflicts relating to the Thames Garden Bridge & payments to the director of Innotech; and comments construed as denigrating.
