Anyone who reads this post regularly will know I don’t hold a candle for Boris Johnson. In my opinion, he is a bit fat fraud who utilises traditional British buffoonery as a tool to gain support from people who read The Daily Mail too much.

Boris, the worse his record of behaviour becomes, the more his supporters
