Boris Johnson under fire over remarks about child abuse inquiries

What an utter shitbag. How much money did he spaff up the wall?

But most worryingly he's been allowed to get away with both his comments and his waste of money. No challenge to him at all, he can say what he wants and people will defend him. He is one of the few people in the world I wish genuine harm to.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ali_Kemal?wprov=sfla1 This is his paternal great grandfather, known as Ingiliz Ali, who was lynched outside a courthouse in Istanbul because he was a Quisling.

I'm only posting this for reference and there's no connection with the prior paragraph.

I'm pretty sure Donovan is some kind of High Tory or a Liberal, but he's a darn good Twitter follow.

They should really have used teapots from the great Teapottery brand, uniquely British. We were sad when their Keswick branch shut down about 6-7 yrs ago, we bought many eccentric teapots from them over the years, 2 for us and about 10 for our relatives abroad.

They have a small production unit in Leyburn (North Yorks) which you can visit, with a shop that ships them abroad. If you’re ever in that area, pay them a visit, tea-loving foreigners love a quirky British teapot as a present. They’re entirely made there, handcrafted and painted by very talented people so don’t expect TK Maxx prices but you can buy quality rejects (with hardly visible defects) for about half price, well, you used to anyway a few yrs ago, not sure now, we haven’t been in a good 5 yrs.

Tradesmen's mugs

[Kevin S]

Not the best china, I note.

Well the whole image is stage-managed to the Nth degree isn't it? The hair, the choice of mugs, the shorts... It's all trademark Johnson and obviously so.

I think our mam's got that tray Gove is proferring.

And now a rebuke from the Speaker:

(This ignorant, ill-mannered, and churlish buffoon represents us on the World stage)

[Antepli Ejderha]

But the majority of his supporters will buy this shite. That's the consumer he is after.

[The Awesome Berbaslug!!!]

Just because it's politically convenient for Johnson to say this right now, or the searing hypocrisy of the statement, doesn't make it any less true.

...and one who leads a country that, let's say, lost just a few people fighting the Nazis.

For such a supposedly educated man, he really is a fuckwit of the absolute highest order. As many have pointed out on Twitter etc, that Eton certainly does churn out some destructive dimwits.

[Rogin the Armchair fan]

Given that almost every major international sporting event between the 1936 Olympics and now has been used as a big propaganda exercise by the hosts - including the London Olympics - all Johnson's done here is directly compare Putin to Hitler. Dwell on that a moment. Our foreign secretary has just compared the leader of a permanent member of the UN security council to Adolf Hitler.

[Glass Half Empty]

Or indeed Britain and the 2012 Olympics

[The Awesome Berbaslug!!!]

some of us have been saying that since the world cup was awarded. Now is quite late in the day to notice.

[Antepli Ejderha]

Hitler and the 36 Olympics equals Putin and the 18 World Cup according to Boris today.

[Tubby Isaacs]

Great takedown here of the appalling formerJohnson sidekick, Kit Malthouse. He's doing Johnson standard of bullshit as a social security minister.

[Tubby Isaacs]

He's not quite had the hold over BBC London that he has had over the rest of the BBC (Eddie Mair honourably excepted). He got caught saying "Fuck Tim Donovan" and sent Kit Malthouse in to do his pre-election interview in 2012, without providing a proper explanation.

[Antepli Ejderha]

I saw the report on BBC London News last night and it was a typical Boris performance with an attack on Sadiq Khan to finish. I'd summarise what he said as, "we've blown 45 million quid on it so far so let's spunk a load more money on it and get the job done. "

[Ginger Yellow]

Apparently his hearing yesterday on the Garden Bridge did not go well.

Not charging Hard Brexit mates the £6,000 fee for using the Foreign Office.

Ministers used to resign for this stuff.

Odd news from Switzerland....
