It was not just the persistently overcast skies – a weather pattern once dubbed the “Brabant gloom” by Roy Jenkins, a former European commission president – that made working in Brussels for the Daily Telegraph in the early 1990s a joyless experience. It was my role as deputy to Boris Johnson, then “bureau chief” in name but solo performer in practice, that ensured my first job as a foreign correspondent was a trial of endurance.

He doesn’t think it’s a crisis.

His similarity to Trump can’t be a coincidence - why are people suddenly incapable of seeing liars or tolerating them when they know it to be the case?

inknook Poetic justice?

You only want to do things that are easy, nobody said it would be easy but remainers will drive us off the road anyway so they can SAY aha! After the BREXIT party the team farage and jonson will do whats right for all us to ALL free (as a bird) and friends with USA. Stop the lies

The EU is worthy of bashing. It is a fascist, undemocratic entity that crushes freedom and is currently committing cultural suicide.

Piffle!

Are we to suppose that the Anti Semitic Labour Party and the one issue LibDems played no part in creating that crisis, it was caused by ALL the undemocratic swampy Remoaner MP's

🐂 💩

Boris has two problems. 1) Brexit isn’t possible to achieve without completely wrecking the country. 2) Over half the country are going to make it their sole mission to stop him at every step. C’mon Brexiteers, your move...

We are eagerly awaiting the crowning of BuffoonBoris as PM because when Brexit fails -and it will fail- it is essential that Boris & Gove are in charge & they are sunk along with Brexit. Here’s why:

as nann always said be careful what you wish for it might come true

The man is sick

The UK only answer to their downfall. Go Boris the man in the street, real British will love you. Not those pariahs that poured in.

And he will Fvxk it up. Grab the popcorn 🍿, the 2nd show is about to start

excellent

I’m still reeling from the notion that this cretin is going to be our Prime Minister. Granted, none of the other candidates would be a “better” option but THIS guy?!
