Boris is in discussion with Patrick Christys, and although I'm not his biggest fan I can see why people like him. He's engaging, he's funny, he's knowledgeable, he has a personality. I certainly wouldn't want to go for a pint with Starmer, but I imagine Boris would be excellent company.

No I didn't watch it Red but he has always come across as a guy withe character and charisma. I will see if I can find it on youtube as they have loads of GM news advents there. |

And there’s the difference Starmer comes across as a boring git who has had a lobotomy. |

You missed out the lobotomy  Anyway I’ll see your humourless unengaging monotone robot and raise with a he resembles a non entity apparatchik of the old Soviet Union who emerged from a crowd of similar who stood on a balcony once a year playing I spy a tank to be another failed leader and the downfall of the Soviets.  |

USA would be a good choice. |

He was an excellent ambassador for London at the Olympics.

Even now his charm hides the fact he is a total count. He failed to oppose illegal immigration. He is led by the nose by everyone, mostly his bag, a disaster of gargantuan size wheen he was pm.

I agree. He was definately more pro EU than he would have you believe that's for sure, and legal immigration rocketed when he was PM. Having said that, I'd still like to go for a pint with him. |

I remember confidently reassuring people that neither Boris Johnson nor Jacob Rees-Mogg could ever become prime minister because they appeared too bizarre in the eyes of most Britons outside the south of England. Johnson's toby-jug, patomime, bumbling fat squire was so obviously an act, and ridiculous even by the standards of such things. How did he ever get taken seriously?

And he took absolutely ages to work out whether it would be better to support, or oppose, Brexit. As I've often said, I have a certain admiration for Tony Benn and Dennis Skinner. Because while I despise the policy, i admire the fact that both wore it on their sleeves. What You saw was what you got Boris ? Boris will change his viewpoint faster than a turning weather vane. There's that line in the Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy about trusting someone 'about as far as I can comfortably spit out a rat' I didn't know Douglas Adams had met Biris |
