Even Boris understands … eventually

thebossross.bsky.social•16 days ago

As always, Boris Johnson sniffs out the popular view on the one topic he hasn't completely shredded his reputation.

derflo.bsky.social•15 days ago

I always wondered why he was so keen on torpedoing one of his two memorable positive achievements from his time in office (the other arguably being the vaccination programme)

robculley.bsky.social•15 days ago

Thick twat nothing penetrates his mashed potato brain

stephenashford.bsky.social•15 days ago

Taken a long time. Most of us realised weeks or months ago that Trump's 'plan' amounted to forcing Ukraine to surrender.

But I guess if you have your head up Trump's arse, you don't know what's happening....

The Penny slumps against the Cent! ¿😜

buchanan101.bsky.social•15 days ago

I suppose we should be pleased that Johnson has one principle - one more than Trump

gmlidington.bsky.social•15 days ago

It will undrop again as soon as the lure of US right wing media $$$$ kicks in.

theseer1983.bsky.social•15 days ago

Boris Johnson is a deluded fool. Deluded about Trump, about Ukraine, about Brexit, about everything.

stephenstroud.bsky.social•15 days ago

Do many people still care what Johnson pretends to believe today?

moleymole.bsky.social•15 days ago

He probably wrote two contradictory versions to cover his options.

jim1132.bsky.social•16 days ago

His "I was wrong" column for the Mail may almost be worth reading - if he ever writes one that admits that.

dextercrisp.bsky.social•15 days ago

If he does, he'll write an "I was right" one as well, which completely contradicts the other

mrrobertbob.bsky.social•15 days ago

Like Trump, Johnson is only out for himself.

spicybee.bsky.social•15 days ago

Yeah, he's only said this to get attention. When will the press ignore him?! I know won't cos they love privileged twats

radiopricey.bsky.social•15 days ago

And, like Trump, he’s not half as smart as he thinks he is.

trishap.bsky.social•15 days ago

Boris won’t ever admit he was wrong, so he won’t let any penny drop!

michael-martin22.bsky.social•15 days ago

Johnson’s backing of Trump in the presidential race and the backing of Zelensky has put him in a precarious position with both Ukraine and Trump.When you blow with the wind you eventually become compromised .He is rarely right about anything and should really just disappear into the sunset.

ros14.bsky.social•15 days ago

Oh 😱 is Johnson in the real world now?
What does Johnson say about Brexit and Putin?

kazcam.bsky.social•15 days ago

So how will he reposition himself? Move towards Trump (remember Russia mountain and the unpublished Russia Files) or in total support of Ukraine?

eurotyke.bsky.social•14 days ago

After his dismissal turn as PM, his support to Ukraine is Johnson’s only legacy, so it is amusing in a way to see Trump shitting all over it… 🤨

mehero.bsky.social•15 days ago

Since "Ukraine" was the only bit of Johnson's political legacy that was not cr*p, he must (late) speak up.

rolandmcs.bsky.social•16 days ago

And Starmer begins to choose at that fork in the road.

suhails.bsky.social•15 days ago

Hope he picks it up. Ukraine remains our fulcrum. I pray we will not betray them.

bobborsley.bsky.social•16 days ago

I suppose slow learners are better than people who never learn.

13sarahmurphy.bsky.social•15 days ago

Don’t you mean… the penny is finally dropping for Boris Johnson that he risks his own popularity by clinging on to Trump like a grubby wetwipe?

lennybayno.bsky.social•15 days ago

Exactly…..Boris knew all along.…

samproctor.bsky.social•15 days ago

Like a bit of muddy wet tissue on the bottom of his shoe.

anamusingaddress.bsky.social•16 days ago

Johnson yesterday…

finite187.bsky.social•15 days ago

So many, many fools on the UK right who cheerleaded for Trump before the election. I would hope they've learned some lessons, but their egos would never allow that.

mikedugdale.bsky.social•15 days ago

Could we describe this as a sort of Brexit of peace deals?

orlamax.bsky.social•15 days ago

I don't think anyone really cares what he thinks any more. Do you?

whatcatydidnext.bsky.social•15 days ago

He thinks these are his Churchillian 'wilderness years.
Or to use his penchant for grand comparisons, the once and future king.

adywhitwell.bsky.social•15 days ago

Who gives a fuck what he says

solpadeine.bsky.social•15 days ago

The fat fkr who always tests the waters, then runs to the front of the queue to claim the win. Irrelevant twat.

timbleman.bsky.social•15 days ago

‘Look for once just say something that may be right and I may be able to broadcast it in the hope that people will forget all that bilge you delivered before. Which I doubt, but…’

pmcghee.bsky.social•15 days ago

Now watch him backpedal on Brexit too. Boris is just scenting the wind of change ready for his rehabilitation.

adamcain.bsky.social•15 days ago

He is not a stupid man, he's a corrupt man.

I imagine he has always known this, but now judges there is no market among Telegraph readers to deny it.

Maybe mildly significant, as the Telegraph editorial policy has been pretty rabidly Trumpian and Musky up to now.
