The Words of Wisdom of Boris Johnson - Foreign Secretary

I see Boris is ranked at around -56% in the latest Ashcroft leadership confidence polls
Just one point above Paul Nuttall :rofl: and a handful behind Trump.
Looks like Boris has finally found his true level.
 
...oh Boris - seems like you are currently being pretty much ignored by the rest of the G7 Foreign Ministers. No matter - we think that you are such a happy chappie and up for jolly japes.
 
Is it really a vote winner to refer to the leader of the oppositon as a 'mutton-headed old mugwump'? Only something he could come up with and colourful use of langauge but is it becoming of a senior cabinet minister?
Doesn't do him or his party any favours imo and you wonder how tight a leash May will keep him on over next few weeks. She's the antithesis of him after all.

Better than calling him a terrorist sympathizing, anti-British old c***
 
Unbecoming language from the Foreign Secretary. Does he think it's clever? Does he think it makes him desktop be 'getting down with the boys'? Frankly for me it is childish and irresponsible - what his counterparts actually think him i wish i knew. Thoughts were that Fox would be first that May would jettison - our dear FS is trying hard to get to the front of the queue.

I was in Whitehall today and I can confirm that the Foreign Sec is on a high level mission to Papua New Guinea. Very very important, top secret....... regrettably no wifi or radio connectivity within miles..............either that or he is tied up in the broom cupboard!

Ah - the radio silence is broken

well - we this morning discover where our dear FS was yesterday - in a Sikh temple telling a Sikh audience of the delights of alcohol - clink!, clink!

No matter what this guy has said and done in the past - both recent and distant - the majority of Tories want Johnson to be the next PM. God help us.

We see the mess and conflicts in the US government and the GOP with Trump as PotUS. Trump's core support - 33% of the electorate - seem to be willing to support him no matter what - what he has said and done in the past (no matter how grotesque) - what he might say and do now and in the future.

And is that the route we are heading? 33% of the electorate adore Boris no matter what - no matter the stink from his past - and the rest of us being at the very best ambivalent.

Ah right. It's only a poll - so not a certain fact - because the only certain fact would be a vote or canvass of every single Conservative Party Member.

So its not 33% of the electorate now, its your projection. And its not the majority of Tories, its only 23%. I wonder how many potential Tory voters will take their vote elsewhere if Boris is leader?
