    I believe this was circa 98/99 when the tories were basically unelectable and it was the new Labour wave. I think Boris is late 30s here. I remember watching this at the time and subsequent episodes with Boris. He seemed to stop when he became mayor. If you’d have said he’d be future PM I don’t think I’d have bet anything on that. I can’t think of a more accidental PM in U.K. history

Buried reports about pollution being worst around the capitals poorest kids schools. Wasted money on water cannons he had no authority to use. Refused to return from holiday when there were full blown riots happening in London.

    Well, its 2020 and we all know what happened to that chairman; and Hislop and Merton are still doing the same jobs. Meanwhile Mr Johnson , having served 2 terms as the Mayor of London, has been grappling with achieving Brexit and running the country as Prime Minister, through convid-19 , which put him in intensive care , because he went round the country trying to rally the population. And Hislop and Merton are still in the same jobs, earning a fortune by taking the piss out of politicians; but not having progressed to jobs needing them to assume responsibility.

      As for his 3 days , in intensive care , would you have had him die.
      To imply that he "did not actually need it " is stupid, wicked or what you will.
      How many people , who spent time in intensive care had acted irresponsibly ? For instance, how about those that had been grossly overweight, for years ? Should they have been occupying beds that could have been used by others ?
