A man who wrote 2 articles about BREXIT, waited until he saw which way the wind blew and published the one he thought would get him the most political capital.
The embarrassment of having this man as PM will ricochet around the world.
We will be more of a laughing stock than we are now with this Trump Lite buffoon in charge.
What has politics become in our country?
A Prime Minister that's all about power and no principle and a leader of the opposition which is all about principle with not the slightest interest in power.

I share some of the concerns about the Boris buffoonery, but what you are missing is that he does light up the room when he enters it. He does not do political correctness, and frankly that is a plus, because people are sick of it. He will introduce a completely new approach and make politics exciting again.
If he surrounds himself with the best talent, this could be a very successful premiership, and have no doubt that he will deliver Brexit. He will also return a Conservative Government with a respectable majority, which is what is scaring people who support left leaning political parties.
As for this same story that keeps getting trotted out about the two articles he wrote about Brexit, he has already explained why he did that, but of course his opponents are not interested in that - they just want to try to discredit him.
While having some concerns about Boris, I do think he is the right person for this country at this particular point in time and he will be extremely popular with the public, much to the chagrin of his detractors, who just don't get it.. He has a very good intellect, but I agree he needs to work on his behaviour.
