Javid 23

TV debate on Tuesday.
For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.

Boris is going to win, it's very obvious. None of these other chumps stands a chance.

So long as they can control him for 4 weeks and stop him making any of his trademark gaffes.

Even then, it'll have to be a doozy. He'd have to fuck up something epic to blow it, regular gaffes ain't getting it done, he'd have to put Joe Biden to shame, and then some.

If BoJo somehow chokes, it's going to something to behold.

In May 2016, Johnson was named winner of a write-in competition held by The Spectator, which challenged readers to compose “offensive” poems about hard-line Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

Johnson, who had previously served as editor of the magazine, claimed victory - and £1,000 in prize money - with the following limerick:

“There was a young fellow from Ankara

Who was a terrific wankerer

Till he sowed his wild oats

With the help of a goat

But he didn’t even stop to thankera.”

Yeah, that's nothing burger, shit like that is nowhere near enough. Gonna take a helluva a lot more than something like that for him to choke the Tory leadership away.

Never underestimate Boris's ability to shoot himself in the foot.

He'd have to blow it clean off to lose though, even then he might hobble over the finish line. The competition is non-existent, someone has to beat him, and I am not seeing anyone who could even beat a one foot Boris.

Calling Erdogan a wanker's hopefully not considered shooting oneself in the foot in British politcs... :think:
Fame is not flattery. Respect is not agreement.
