But we know from that very revealing piece by Jeremy Vine (who heard him give exactly the same supposedly improvised rambling speech, complete with forgetting punchlines etc, at two corporate dos about 18 months apart) that the whole 'good old bumbling Boris' performance is scripted.I will be VERY generous in my assessment:
Boris very obviously lost the plot mid speech. And then tried to improvise with a funny analogy. It’s kind of tragic that Peppa Pig was what first came to his mind, but for the sake of the argument: whatever. So he tried to spin the story of the UK as a place for creative inventions that have impact/are extremely successful even outside the UK. Showcasing on an underlying level what the UK should be: family friendly, entrepreneurial, safe streets, discipline in schools, great public transport……..
I say points for creativity and the improv attempt.
No honestly, it was hilarious and such a car crash. I laughed with tears streaming down my face. Also loved the Moses analogy.
Absolutely! We do not need a second chamber that is so big for a start, get rid of hereditary peers elect the remainder from people who are knowledgeable and have contributed to society not just political parties and cut it to at least 1/4 of it's current size. Like so many things, its unjustifiable but still just exists.It's high time the Lords were abolished. We need an elected chamber. £300 in expenses a day if you grease BoJo's palm. Every day it just gets more depressing.
You know what, I don’t think there’s much self loathing going on with her - I get the impression she thinks she’s fucking marvellous and way above the level of us plebs.It's interesting that her parents migration is cloaked in mystery but the bottom line is she is directly targeting people like her parents. I do wonder what level of self-loathing she must be carrying to be the way she is.
The Tories have an 80 seat majority. The whole government could be sacked and they will just be replaced by other Tory MP's. It wont make any difference until 2024, when this will all be forgotten and in all probability, Labour would have either imploded completely or still be stumbling along like a half dead corpse of a party, bed blocking the position of Official opposition. I will fall off my chair in shock if they manage to do what they should have done years ago and form a coalition with other parties on the left on a PR ticket because PR will he the end of them and they know it.It's got Cummings/Gove master of the dark arts written all over it. Unsurprisingly, leaked by The Sun in a proper old fashion tabloid sting. Very suspicious. Murdoch is doing his absolute best here. Unfortunately, nothing is working as the general public may loathe Cummings more than Wancock. I fucking despair.
The problem is that he doesn't want to do anything really, but when confronted with a problem he makes something up and leave another to clear up the mess.I heard some Boris apologist that he should do less, better. That he looked tired. I know Maggie wasn't/isn't everyone's cup of tea, but I don't recall her being 'tired'. Maybe if he lost some weight, that might be a start.
Karma for buggering up London Transport and leaving a massive financial black hole for Sadiq Khan to find, not building Council Houses, cheating on his wives, lying to the nation about Brexit, etc.It is his karma for fucking over Theresa, who also got a bad egg by another incompetent tw*t David Cameron. The damage those 3 have collectively done, it's unbelievable.
I'm surprised she hasn't commented on her dad's member yet.His sister said that the Johnson brothers are well hung.![]()

I seem to remember Raab also not realising the importance of the Channel crossings to freight etc.
I actually wonder if it’s purely because as a woman of colour, Johnson and his cronies can point to her as an example of proof that the Tories aren’t sexist or racist. ( Even though Patel seems to hate everybody and seems to have positioned herself slightly to the right of Goebbels )I wonder what Patel has on Johnson.
Even the mail readership are questioning this but probably because she's not sending them all back where they came from which are likely to be colonies of Britain![]()
I think you'll find my dishy Rishi would do a fabulous job of running this country thank you very much!It's easy to slate Boris. I am no fan. But what's the other option? Stop moaning and give me a solution. Liz Truss? Dishi Rishi? Really?
The true tragedy imo is that there is no credible opposition. Sir Keir comes across as a decent fellow. Dull, but decent. But you know, YOU KNOW, that the Labour Party can't be trusted, they will either bankrupt the nation or elect a load of loonies to the front bench. You know that.
I voted for the Green Party last time. Which is a bit of a joke because I believe nuclear energy is the way forward in terms of sustainable energy, but the Green's are against that. Makes no sense to me. But hey ho.
