So whats up with Boris Johnson?

[Graeham]

His lack of moral character is appalling. Why people follow such an obviously unprincipled egoist, I don't know. Trump is an asshole, but Boris is worse - he's a crook.

Something which can be applied to the vast majority of politicians, unfortunately. Even many of those considered to be 'nice' given that they may be praised for helping one portion of society but will happily screw over another to score points.

Clearly he is too poor to afford one of these, we should pass around a collection plate.

If anything Boris does probably earnestly believe in a brutal meritocracy as a means for most to do better. A bit like Thatcher on amphetamines. He's probably more pragmatic too. Given what we are likely to end up with otherwise I'd rather it be him.

It'll be a short sharp shock for those that identify as "working class" that don't actually work though.

What is this? Did Merlin or Nostradamus leave out a prophecy of the emergence of blond weirdo's across the world?

Boris Johnson is where Trump lost his hair and grew into a whole person.

I would rather the reanimated corpse of Pol Pot than Gove.

Gove has already come out in support of Boris so it looks like the next PM will be either Boris, Theresa or Ozzy.

What's going on with Britain, I thought the UK was where one could go and have a spot of tea and talk about the Queen Mum with dignity and grace. Did her court jester escape?

Wow, that's depressing.

[Kellorion]

Him and Trump are like Orange TweedleDee and TweedleDum

Question is, would you guys make fun of him if he was left wing?

Probably. There are enough fruitcakes on the left to fill a bowl.

I actually like his deranged charm. It is his policies which mark him out as a bounder.

Given the choice between him, Hilary and Trump it would be Boris every time.

Behold the man destined to succeed David Cameron, henceforth known as the Prime Minister who Broke Two Unions, the one and only; Boris Johnson - the Man who Trolled a Nation. Epic.

Yes. The British take the piss out of all politicians. Google Michael Foot for an eccentric from the left

Maybe not. Boris looked like a shoe-in, but it may be he is becoming a liability as the markets crash.

The boy-most-likely-to rarely wins elections. My guess would be a fresh contender will emerge.

We have Diane Abbott on the left to take the piss out of...

Yeah she's black. How we laughed.

Boris Johnson, the Breaker of Unions.

He will spin ALL of it as having been the nation's servant and delivered their will. That will lead into how he will employ that dedication and talent to take us through the difficult times ahead. The shady stuff he will misdirect away from with his buffoonery... just watch. We likely will have him much longer than the next GE too.

At no point did I say people mocked her because she is black, so you clearly think it is something to mock her over...you complete racist.
