>3:05 - "including fines and dispersing gatherings"
There's a little glumb expression and nod, as if to suggest hesitance at making the descision.
>3:56 - "I know the damage this is doing"
A major break of continuity when Johnson looks down to the desk, as if to suggest he'd reading of the damage from a report rather than knowing first hand.
>4:50 - "with the time you bide"
Another break of continuity as Johnson reaches out as if to give the viewer something. Alternatively a reference to handing over cash as in 'time you buy (I'm unsure which he says).
There're a few points which might be micro expressions but i couldn't pin them to anything significant.

By way of giving this thread a purpose, i'll ask;
What exactly is it that i'm trying to study, here, and what resources might help me understand it?

I didn't think as much of the video as you appear to be doing though. He's just reading a statement and trying his level best to appear Churchillian (as this is, of course, the Churchill moment he has had wet dreams about his entire life).
Thanks for the hint - I found a script online, and I've been feeding in pictures of Michael Gove's ridiculous face. On average, there's been about a 50% success rate in identifying Gove's face as being a human face.
