Didn't someone else recently use the jewel thief analogy? Mr Johnson is a shining example of what happens when you allow someone with the common sense of a ******ed goldfish and the self awareness of a drunk hippo to study and become, in their own minds at least, an intellectual.
He isn't a buffoon. It's purely an act because the British find that kind of thing endearing. In reality he's a conniving **** who wouldn't spare the steam off his pish for anyone other than his Tory pals (and only then those that could help him further his career).
Point taken - I never actually called him a bufoon but said he had no common sense or self awareness. Still, I agree with you. I'll change that to over privileged, out of touch, back stabbing goat gobbler.
Same with Farage. He doesn't give a **** about immigration; he's just an opportunist who knows there's plenty of daft ****s out there who do.
