I thought he despised the Bullshit Broadcasting Communists.

I won’t watch it and hope to get unbiased opinion of what he says on here afterwards. ;)

I don’t know if he is sincere, or a bullshitter, but either way I simply do not like the fella. I don’t trust him, I have this conscious bias against him. He reminds me of a snivelling little tell-tale and his face is in dire need of a solid punch.

Are you sure you're not getting confused

Im sure it is a coincidence that ‘Would I Lie to You’ is on bbc1 at pretty much the same time

He never has been a politician in an elected sense, just seems to think he was running the country for reasons beyond me.

The reality is the "advisors" have been running the country since the Alistair Campbell & Mandelson days (even if the second one was elected at one point!).

So what's the verdict..? Did he do a Ginger Whinger and tell his version of the "truth"..?
Or did he finally let it out the bag that old Boris is really just a life sized Spitting Image puppet.?

Personally I'm going for mostly the latter.

I base that on Boris's previous.
As mayor of London he surrounded himself with a good team that did the work/thinking leaving him to only do the photo ops. That mostly worked OK except for a few times when he pushed his pet projects.

As Foreign Secretary he demonstrated his incompetence to the world.

I think Cummings is holding back and really wants a public enquiry to decimate Boris and the Conservative party.

One of the leadership characteristics that is near the top of the list when selecting people for high level posts. In fairness he really delivered as Mayor

I am sure that Boris would be accepted by more people if he didn’t speak in ‘Old Etonian’ and have hair that looks like a hand grenade goes off at regular intervals. Both make him an easy target for ridicule.

Conscious or unconscious bias…..?

'ti's indeed "one" of the characteristics.

Unfortunately in his case I fear it's the only one he has.

He's repeatedly shown that integrity and truthfulness plus a grasp of the world as it impacts on others is not within his capacity.

How he speaks and looks would be irrelevant if he did not consistently prove that he really is a buffoon.

Others suffer as a result, not him.

His success as London mayor was that of the team around him and that he usually absents himself from all business except for the odd photo opportunity and soundbite.

When he became Foreign Secretary he spoke without thought a few times causing harm.

After becoming Prime Minister that continued.

In both those roles he still seemed to consider the working week week meant Wednesday morning.

Even then he's not capable of learning his lines so still says something incredibly damaging.

I fear many of the comments by Cummings on Boris have the ring of truth to them. Others are not speaking out as they remain wedded to the Boris gravy chain, which would explain the desire for a public enquiry.

Oh dear, did I just think all that out loud! :)

The bloke is a wrong 'un ... pure and simple
He has NO morals , believes he is far better than just about every one and seems unable to tell the difference between the truth and lies

We're on about Boris, not Beaker.
