Boris is front page news

Hi

Think of it what you will. but this is not going to do him any good.

He seems to be becoming more of a liability by the day.

Re: Boris is front page news

Just two points.
1. He was quite likely, as I do with an important decision to make, writing down the for and against
2. Even if his original thoughts were for remaining he is entitled to change his stance. I much prefer someone who can change their mind when neccessary rather than hammering away in the wrong direction.

Has nobody on here ever changed their mind?

Hi

Yes, frequently, Rainmaker.

I used to be quite a Boris fan sometime ago, he was a good Mayor of London.

He has made a load of mistakes recently and is viewed as a bit of joke by those we will be negotiating with, this is not good news in relation to getting a good deal.

I see no point in trying to reduce EU Immigration if he is offering the Turks visa free immigration to the UK.

Re: Boris is front page news

He is not exactly offering unlimited immigration by doing that though is he? He's merely saying it should not cost the Turks money.
The problem is the news gathers take remarks made by politicians and exaggerate them in order to sell newspapers or the news channel they work for. I don't believe half of what I hear and read about Boris, he seems to be fair game for everybody who wants a headline.

He, Boris, reminds me of a Womble called Orinoco, not sure he'd be any good at being Foreign Secretary. Same type.

Exactly how do you know that? I post on here infrequently so I don't remember the last time I mentioned his name.
I make my judgements and opinions on what I see and read and unlike some. At least you will get an opinion from me and not just a smart arse one liner.
