In a question and answer session following his speech, the Labour leader was asked by Sky News' political correspondent Liz Bates whether he is"too boring" to be prime minister.Johnson 'determined' in final weeksElsewhere, Foreign Secretary Liz Truss has officially joined the race for the Tory leadership, with Home Secretary Priti Patel potentially set to announce her candidacy.
Both had vowed to step down if they were found to have breached regulations during a trip to the city in April 2021, ahead of the Hartlepool by-election.This is in stark contrast to the 126 fixed-penalty notices by the Metropolitan Police for rule breaches in Downing Street and Whitehall. Mr Johnson, his wife Carrie Johnson, and then chancellor Mr Sunak were all fined for attending a birthday gathering for the prime minister in June 2020 when indoor mixing was banned.told a news conference:"People said to me I was taking a risk by saying I would step down if I was fined. But it was never about that.
"For me it was a matter of principle. It shouldn't be controversial to say those who make the law can't break the law. But we have to set the bar far higher than that."
He is boring absolutely boring doesn’t inspire me to vote for him.
Hallelujah Hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah
Keir you are boring and very sad
Boring = non controversial. Gets my vote.
I'm not boring, really - I'm not!
Nobody cares! We don’t want a clown running the county, as we have for the past few years. We need someone competent, compassionate and with integrity, and Starmer will do a great job.
Sorry. I nearly fell asleep just reading about sir beer korma
😴😴😴😴😴😴
He always looks so stupid 😂
I deny opening one of next weekend's ciders. *Subtly nudges an empty can out of sight*
Bit early ? He seems to be another Sturgeon anything to get on the TV as this must be about the 5th time he has laid out Labours plans but as the shite news organisation you are you don’t ask these questions
can put lipstick on a pig but still a pig ,he can appear as electable as he wants its those behind him who are of the far left that are the problem
He is boring 😴
If being “boring” means not being in the spotlight every week for a new enormous scandal than I don’t see how that’s a problem? We don’t need a complete clown running the country babbling Pepper Pig world - we need a leader.
Excellent journalism 🙄 Throwing insults at a decent man whilst treading on eggshells around the narcissistic sociopath who's intent on tanking the UK before he's dragged out of No. 10
Even the “audience” looked bored by lecternkeith wonder how much he paid them to sit there 🤔
He can deny it as much as he wants, it's still true
Useless
If you have to deny being boring … 🤔
They are a frightening line up - Labour spouts a lot but says nothing - I haven't a clue of their aims. Who really wants Raynor, Thornberry and Cooper who dont know when to shut up along with Stamer who opens his mouth all the time and says Nothing.
How can Starmer be boring we saw a picture of him in Pride wk glitter and sequins on his face,he's not boring he's a woke embarrassing tosspot trying so hard to be noticed with splinters in his backside,through sitting on the fence and the hindsight of a nat,now I find that funny
A met officer PC Zak Russell has kidnapped my child. He has been targeting my daughter for quite some time. He put my daughter in handcuffs and dragged her to a van for no reason. WHY? My daughter has not been returned. Please assist in saving my child😭
You have to admire the fortitude of their cameraman staying awake to get that shot.
💤💤💤💤💤💤💤💤💤💤💤💤
Will the real leader of the opposition stand up ! Instead of using starmer as a plagerising puppet ! Choose starmer get him !
And I'm not 2 stone overweight...is that how it works ?
How does he know he isn’t boring? Totally out of touch. NeverLabour
Don't give a flying fuck if he's boring. I just want someone to run the country ina fair manner. Personality shouldn't be before correct credentials.
“Oh would some Power the gift give us, to see ourselves as others see us.” All I see is a man who has no plan, won`t answer basic questions, attacks everything the Tories do in the same way and, mostly, is really boring!
Boring man tweets boring tweet shock! Horror!
Sorry, I lost interest part-way through that tweet...
But does a woman have a penis?
Why is boring bad? We’ve allegedly had years of Johnson and his “charisma” and look at the shitshow that gave us.
He is the wettest wet blanket there is. John Major was interesting compared to Starmer
The working class and disabled have taken the financial hit in every economic crisis since the end of world war 2. We need serious change. After the last 3 years, I’d take boring any day of the week. We need a PM who can show honesty, integrity and compassion in these dark times.
Boring, chearing Escaped a charge in beergate due to the pax he's got friends in Hugh places
Aside from 12 years of politics as the theatre, watching the two halves of the Tory party dismantle UK norms as they arm wrestle each other for control, their actual time spent governing has yielded near-zero benefit for us non-politicians. I'd take boring and focussed any day.
He's clearly very sensitive about it, as is his cult. Someone actually saw this, started crying and reported it. Probably Starmer himself.
Won't bother to vote then I can't care what muppets do any more Boris was my PM
He and Rayner quietly got away with Beergate with no scrutiny whatsoever and haven't formed a single policy in 3 years except for 'tax'. They also have convicted criminals sat on the benches. They are totally unelectable.
I’d rather have someone who’s boring that the monster we’ve just got rid of.
He is though…
to be honest i think the majority would want Angela as leader
Getting most back on benefits is labour's no 1 priority
He was impressive today, may not have the Johnson clown act but that’s not a bad thing. We’ve had enough clowns over the last 12 years.
Problem is UKLabour are still trying to appease the Brexiteers - what about the other half of the population?
Wake me when he's finished
