Is there anyone on the planet who doesn’t think his phone will be filled with reams of fatuous and flippant content about COVID, as well as massive amounts of “by jingo!” bullshit which will reveal his habitually chaotic, lazy, reckless and ignorant approach to any subject of real importance?

'Today' prog, early a.m. A report that the Cabinet office has a 'version' of the PIN to 'that' phone. You're welcome to find other sources.

I think that to any real person the contents of his phone would be embarrassing and cringeworthy in equal measure. But the "greased piglet" will just laugh it off, and his cheerleaders/groupies will come galloping to his assistance, again. I have no idea why people have this affinity with him. I only have to look at him to dislike him. I suppose he is "marmite". |

We should have listened to the Irish view of him. The imminent arrival of Boris Johnson in Downing Street – a prospect that would have been dismissed as madcap just a few years ago – is a measure of the malaise infecting British politics. Only a dysfunctional political culture could conclude that a showman with such limited ability, such disqualifying flaws and such a meagre track record is the man to lead its government at this dangerous moment. |

Yep. And we as a nation are paying the price. While he supposedly is making £21000 an hour. We've been taken for mugs, good and proper. I wouldn't pay him in washers. There really are some gullible people out there. |

It's those gullible souls I can't quite fathom. Even if you've got money to burn, how on earth does it make vfm sense to buy his time at those sorts of rates? If he was aligned with my thinking, or that of a group I was asking him to present to, it would be money down the drain in terms of influence etc. Maybe if I was selling tickets at £20 a pop to 1,000 people then the economics start to make a little more sense for 30 minutes of his time - not unlike the ridiculous salaries pro footballers make which is ultimately justified by the revenue that the clubs employing them bring in.

He makes this money because he embodies the establishment that the people who pay him the want to see remain in charge, the very establishment he stole votes by saying he wasn't part of. But anyone who fell for that bollocks is an.. oh wait Brexit. |
