Re: Boris Johnson
Yeah (given that I replied to it).
I suppose that you don't see the irony.

I agree (kind of). His views but not his words were rational. Maajid Nawaz summarises the situation very well:

This is the uniform of medieval patriarchal tyranny. It victim-blames women for their beauty. Where this is enforced it symbolises violent mysogyny. I’m not advocating banning this monstrosity but I refuse to defend it. It deserves to be ridiculed. Not the women inside it.

This is the right approach. The stress being this that this is not a criticism of the woman wearing the clothing, rather the men behind the diktat.
Boris, having subtlety surgically removed at an early age is unable to see the nuance that is needed here. His clumsy approach was and is more likely to lead to dog-whistle racism than focusing the criticism on the people really responsible for this.

I don't think that them doing that equates to them seeing sense. I think that they would nominate a leader that could not lead the party into a GE.

The former has a proven track record of competence in government departments, unlike Boris, and is less of a extravagant attention seeker.

His wife makes up for it on that front - at her encouragement he destroyed Boris which is why we all have May now.

It also seems like Gove did us all a favor when he identified Boris' inability to take things seriously so ran against him last time.

Oh I dunno...there are many places where I differ with Boris but having your stooge / campaign head stab you in the back hardly shows the seriousness of the guy that screwed you over....

Not interested who he is a activist for as he is voicing everything that is wrong with the NHS currently unless you disagree with those sentiments?.
