There isn't much to write about this speech because it just stands on its own as a moment of amazing transparency and character.

When Johnson describes his own son, it's apparent just how deeply this past week has wounded him, as it has the community as a whole.

I don't think it's possible to watch him and not be moved. Or changed.

Can you help us out?
