He’ll find his jolly blustering and acting the fool when pressed on details to be a trick that plays well to some in the UK but elsewhere is seen for what it is - Evidence that he hasn’t got a clue what he’s talking about.

Anyone heard the song "The Fool The Hill' Composed by Paul MC Cartney , It must be about Boris...

Asked once if he had any convictions, Boris replied, "Only one - for speeding."

Political ignorance is not stupidity... Johnson is genuinely clever and, as his fictional alter ego Barlow shows, quite self aware.

It is the studied carelessness affected by a large part of the English upper class whose manners and attitudes Johnson - in reality the product of a rather bohemian bourgeois background - thoroughly absorbed.

Consequences are for the little people.

Johnson holds a gun to the head of the UK economy, then goes off to make his demands.

 

Let’s see what he comes back with.

He’ll probably come back with a bullet wound from when he shoots himself.

I find very amusing that the rabid remoanres are chocking at anything positive about the UK. In fact they fume when facts that the UK is doing very well, much better than most of the EU.

 

So they get their little kicks of trying to denounce or belittle the PM, who is doing exactly what the referendum result reflected. We are leaving the EU on 31st October 2019. Who would have thought adults could act so childish. Rather like throwing milkshakes when you don't get your way or scream and shout at people.

In this period of British history, most of those who support Johnson actually know very well that Brexit is the Titanic and that his evasive actions will be of no avail. But if the ship is going down anyway, why not have some fun with Boris on the upper deck? 

There is a fatalistic end-of-days pleasure in the idea of Boris doing his Churchill impressions while the iceberg looms ever closer.

When things are too serious to be contemplated in sobriety, send in the clown.
