      That’s always been such illogical thinking. Someone who doesn’t want a job that they need to choose to hold is inherently going to have very little passion for the position. Also, we are talking about what a child said they wanted to be, not the adult who very likely wanted the position of prime minister, but doubtlessly did not want to be a king of anything.

And in fact: yes, he shouldn't be compared to Trump, Trump is way smarter (even though he isn't "well spoken"). Problem is: both of them are self-centred cunts who don't give a toss about people or country - all they care about is self-advancement at any cost. But then again: how often have we really had leaders who were any different?

    Hennessy July 2019 on BJohnson (in above): "He seems to me to be a politician who has inhaled his own legend before he has created it. He’s shown levels of personal and political narcissism which do worry me. My own feeling veers towards the anxiety end of the spectrum - because you cannot busk being prime minister." June 2020: tragically there is now overwhelming evidence that Hennessy was right to doubt... BJ is out of his depth, making it up as he goes along. His narcissism and incompetence has already cost 10s of thousands of lives... how many more?

      Well, when Boris tries to convince you that the circle you have been staring at is actually a square, when the whole world says that that’s a circle, but Boris is still convinced that’s it’s not. So are his ERG cronies, and they find Mindord to back them up, and no one else. The world still tries to correct them. You get called names, you try real hard to squint and find this illusive square and still can’t find it.
      Finally you give up. Unfortunately the reigns of a great power is on the hands of this guy, and when it goes down which it eventually will if Boris has his way, it will take a large chunk of the world down. Along with the diversity or whatever. That’s why we’re bugged
