Tory Leader Competition.

Boris Johnson is Foreign Secretary - Really?????? http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-36789972

He doesn't strike me as having the nous and political temperament to handle potentially difficult situations

Really? Did his two spells as mayor of London not give him that? Have you looked into his background and family history? I think he certainly has the nous and political temperament to handle potentially difficult situations.

I tend to agree with Homer here. I think he's perceived as a bit Churchillian, to put it politely.
I think May is giving him enough rope to hang himself whilst keeping him inside the Tory tent.
In the long run Boris will be remembered as the man who split the Tories and destroyed Cameron. And some will want their pound of flesh for that.

There in lies a large part of the problem with politics... Nepotism...
It's not what you've done or can do but what your father/mother has done before you...

The worst type of manager is the one that has read all about it but never actually laid a proverbial brick...

As London's Mayor BJ started off well enough but got distracted, far too easily, from the actual job in hand...

Certainly did read up on his background, prior to the EU referendum, and what a disgraceful despicable man he is. I read some of his newspaper articles, and how much of a bully he was/is. I read of his duplicity whilst he was at uni. I must have missed something but as far as I'm concerned he I wouldn't trust him to do an honest, full days graft with the emphasis on honest.

The thought of him running the country, along with a few other far right wingers was why I switched from Leave to Remain.

Time will tell on how he performs in the new role. I am optimistic that he will be good but Hey Ho! god forbid, I may be wrong ;)
