I think this prediction is pretty close to the mark on what Boris is looking to achieve.

Shane Long is awful

has scored 10 goals in his last 90 appearances in the premier league (3 seasons)

so it is a perfect analogy

lol.

i looked over a career

anyway 10 goals makes it a poor analogy

find me a striker with no goals, better analogy



But you get the analogy

Aaron is quite right about Boris being a racist.

Sure, people might say he sacked off white cabinet members, replacing top jobs of Chancellor/Home Secretary with Javid and Patel.

But don’t forget he is a liar too so these are just the actions of a weird racist liar.

This is another of those weird ones that makes no sense. Is it a confused and failed satire? Surely you aren’t saying Boris isn’t a liar? Not easy when he does it on TV and was sacked by the Conservative Party and The Times for lying.

The reasons why he says and writes lots of racist things are more nuanced but still not a great look.

If being a liar precluded people from being PM then we'd never have one

sounds very sensible to me

98 days to a no deal or extension/GE double would make for a busy thread

No no Boris is a great liar. All politicians are liars and he's got some stiff competition now he's in the global leadership league e.g. Putin and the 123m Salisbury spire tourist deception, Bill Clinton's "I did not have sexual relations with that woman" belter. Boris has the talent to write some numbers on a bus and it convinces the majority of people to vote leave. Now onto the GE where he simply needs to put bigger numbers on larger bus and let's gogogo to big majority in commons.

Surely the fact that he gets caught all the time calls in to question his credentials as a great liar? I suppose he’s fortunate that there are people like you who view his lying so positively.

Would be interesting if this was right and it sounds eminently sensible.

‘They’re all liars’ is such a tired and inadequate argument. There hasn’t been a PM in my lifetime who was continually publicly exposed as a liar and was fired from multiple jobs for lying.

you might be right. parts of the leave vote and Trump brazenly talking any old bollocks and getting elected are evidence ofit

In your heart of hearts though this is very depressing isn't it? that policy, truth and principle don't matter. That voters will swallow any old crap (lack of knowledge, lack of interest etc)?

Boris was there for vote leave, so surely he isn’t intelligent enough to have planned his route to PM since then?

It isn’t the case though. There haven’t been political campaigns in recent times in the UK/US dominated entirely by and won through lying. Boris/Trump/Leave have totally changed the game. Trump has more than 10,000 lies on record since he took office!

It’s not the most even handed publication but what they’ve written here is true and corroborated by lots of analysis including the Electoral Commission.
