Interesting question you end on, Sunny.

So I had a look at ConHome – don’t worry, I washed my hands afterwards – and can report that Monty and all those other Clever People Who Talk Loudly In Restaurants seem to have missed this story.

The only mention of Bozza in the last four days is about Boris Bikes Beating The Tube Strike.

As the Great Man himself might have said: Crikey readers! Bozza bonked off the front page! Yikes!

Boris is continuing to position himself for Tory leadership come 2015 when Cameron gets the boot for losing the election. It’s no secret that Boz’n'Dave don’t get on. Oh, and he’s electioneering too of course. Bet he’s not arsed about cuts anywhere outside London…

“So I had a look at ConHome – don’t worry, I washed my hands afterwards”

HAHA

“It’s no secret that Boz’n’Dave don’t get on.”

Call me an idiot but I had no idea that was the case…

I can’t see him being much of a contender for the Tory leadership in the future. He’s too much of a maverick and a novelty to be taken seriously. This isn’t America where we elect actors and idiots (sometimes they can be both) to lead the country…

I completely agree with the article, I think he is positioning himself for re-election.

Oh, and he’s electioneering too of course. Bet he’s not arsed about cuts anywhere outside London…

Well, he is the Mayor of the bloody place.

This isn’t America where we elect actors and idiots (sometimes they can be both) to lead the country…

‘We’ elected Blair!

“‘We’ elected Blair!”

What is this ‘we’? I was 5, 9 and 13 when Labour were elected my friend

That said I did read a quote from Neil Kinnock in the Guardian saying Tone was just a “method actor”…

“‘We’ elected Blair!”

Who is neither an idiot nor an actor (unless you want to stretch a metaphor and claim all the political world’s a stage). And in fairness, back in 1997 he didn’t seem all that warmongery at all.
