I had been wondering, Twickers:
Have you heard any odds for Johnson breaking the record for the shortest term as PM (119 days)?
If Johnson's the answer, what the feck is the question?
A new era of misery begins - albeit a short one.
Boris celebrates winning the race for PM...
Boris prepares to chair his first cabinet meeting
Boris hears that the closest burger joint to Number 10 is over three miles away.
May, finding it hard not to conceal her delight at leaving the top job.

And this is the woman that Trump is trying to establish as his political successor.

You'll probably see it crop up a lot on news satire shows in the near future, but the presenter on Open Source (BBC News channel) has just made a classic Freudian Slip:
While discussing Twitter responses to Johnson becoming PM, she was explaining how the hashtag #NotMyPM has taken off (along with #Britain Trump), and tried to say "...more than 50,000 tweets carrying that tag.", but initially confused the word "tag" with another word beginning with "t"...

Hmmm, I'd have to see it before I comment. A bit like the Victoria Derbyshire thing the other week? I dunno

That was a classic. How stoopid are these people that they don't get the correct info before opening their gobs??!! It can't be new to her that the UK are choosing a new PM, or as I suspect, she does not read or watch the news other than national news.

As I read on Twitter today, "Evil Benny Hill". Has there ever been a more apt description of that hateful piece of self serving ****?
Sickening to think a man who has been sacked from government posts three times for lying is now PM.

Also, he brings in:
Gavin Williamson: Sacked as defence secretary following an inquiry into a leak from a top-level National Security Council meeting.
Priti Patel: Who was forced to resign from Theresa Mayâs government after revelations she had conducted secret meetings with the Israeli government.
So the takeaway from this is that you can do or say pretty much what you want and still get a top job - Think I will try that at work next week and see what happens - maybe I will be MD by next Friday.

WOW @Dame_Ann_Average !!!
Not seen that interview. But that is typical BJ when faced with questions he does not want to answer, and in this case I can see why not. Hard to believe he has the top job in politics - some people out there need to have a good, long, hard, look at themselves.
The joke caption is quite obvious, so I'm not going to do it.

I've mentioned this before, but Ian Hislop has always said that he does not consider Johnson fit to serve in any political position whatsoever. Many people have just assumed he was joking, but as a political journalist who has worked with Johnson, he was being deadly serious.
Seriously: how many jobs do you have to be sacked from for lying before the GBP start to suspect that you might - just might - be a bit of a wrong 'un...
