Re: Today’s headlines .........
When Boris was young he wanted to be 'World King' so his Dad Stanley Johnson shared. Today Boris is one step closer to that.
Theres a great piece in the Independant today bu Simon Kelner which looks at what Boris's base instincts are. Simon comes to the judgement that Boris has the instincts of a Journalist not a PrimeMinister/Politician. However he does admit that Boris is oft a good journalist though he points out he is still flaws even where his instincts lay:- He made up quote for the Times and got sacked, he upset the whole on Liverpool on 2 different occasions, there are many more faffs that people know where Boris has made it up as he went along, saldy one resulting in a harsher outcome for the arrested lady in Iran.
So its with sadness that I see Boris is PM. I do rather that he was entertaining me on Have I Got News for You than holding this highest office :(
