Title: Boris Johnson is Out
Post by: Ben on July 07, 2022, 08:15:46 AM
Boris Johnson just resigned.

I never paid much attention to what was going on there. The stuff mentioned in the story doesn't seem much worse than what any (every?) US President has done. I'm sure there is worse stuff not mentioned.

I have to give him credit for getting them out of the EU. Otherwise, by appearance alone, man, the dude continually looked like he had just gotten up after sleeping on somebody's couch in yesterday's clothes after a good drunk. Worst dressed world leader ever.  :laugh:

A lot of people I saw were happy he got them out of the EU, but not happy with his COVID rules.

but not happy with his COVID rules.

Which he apparently broke right and left for his own convenience. That certainly irritated me when so many of our own "Lockdown! We're gonna die!" politicians did the same thing.

This is a recent one that caught my attention
Felt it was a bit odd for someone to say unless they're trying to earn Brownie Points

Boris Johnson is a loathsome "conservative."  He denounced the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade, and he apparently has been screwing over Brits to be "green."  I think he was involved in banning gas cars in britian.
