Jennifer Arcuri's affair with Boris Johnson in the Sunday Mirror

I wonder how much has been paid for the story? Read it briefly on the website, wonder about the timing, and of course realise the main issue is Boris Johnson not declaring the business/personal relationship.

His behaviour since is typical of his attitude towards women. Sad that she did not know what he was like, perhaps he targeted her because as someone new to the country was less likely to know what he is like.

This won’t damage him. The public has always known what this tomcat is like with women, yet he was voted in and probably would be if there were an election tomorrow. The story about the young violinist (alleged affair) last year barely made a dent. Everyone knows he’s sleazy.

I haven’t read this story but I’d be embarrassed to publicise my affair with a married man. How tawdry.

His current partner was shagging him behind his wife’s back, while his wife was being treated for cancer.

She’s living off taxpayers at 11 Downing Street right now.

He’s absolutely filthy but most Tories are capitalists, not moralists.

He is a racist, homophobic, nasty man. He is a man of questionable morals.

The GLA investigation was delayed because of covid. It’s the £126,000 of taxpayers money he gave her and then lied about that he’s being investigated, rather than the 4 year affair.

C130 , you forgot misogynistic.

I'm sorry I do not think Boris Johnson is a racist, homophobic, nasty man. I don't think he is a great prime minister but he is a libertarian.

"His current partner was shagging him behind his wife's back, while his wife was being treated for cancer...."

Awful behaviour by him. And her.

But you live by the sword ....
Didn't his second wife have an affair with him while he was still married to his first wife ?

His personal life doesn't appear to matter to those who vote for him.

Really?

How do you feel about him responding ‘bah humbug’ to MPs begging for a softer rhetoric as it was creating death threats against them.

Or his referring to the investigations of historic CSE as spaffing money up a wall?

Or his referring to people who look like me as piccaninnies with watermelon smiles?

Or his referring to gay men as bumboys?

And if you feel the above was ‘taken out of context’ can you please tell me what context those comments should be made in?

Is that a typo?
PurpleBiro21 · 28/03/2021 11:14

He is an absolute tomcat, but here I’m more concerned about the £100k of tax payer cash that he granted her...

Palavah · 28/03/2021 11:16

Since when do we use 'tomcat' to describe a pervy man who is a serial cheat?

Whilst it's very very unpleasant I agree it's not the main concern while he's corrupt and leading the government

PerkingFaintly · 28/03/2021 11:17

I think TheWashingMachine's comment just means "he's a libertarian, so I can see no wrong in him."

And that poster clearly isn't sorry, so I'm not sure why they have used that word in their post.

Agree that is the far bigger issue
PerkingFaintly · 28/03/2021 11:20

His personal life doesn't appear to matter to those who vote for him.

Nor his corruption.

Never mind, I'm sure they get to imagine ruffling his hair and chuckling, "Oh Boris, you are a one."

Ninkanink · 28/03/2021 11:20

I thought that said Jennifer Aniston and thought Blimey I didn’t think he’d be her type... 😆😆

KingdomScrolls · 28/03/2021 11:23

I don't really care about who anyone has sex with that's their business and that of partners. I do care about racism, discrimination, homophobia and misappropriation of tax payer's money and I say that as someone who has voted Tory in the past and can't abide Jeremy Corbyn et al. It's almost as though the nonsense about his infidelity drowns out the things we should really be questioning.

I don't think he is either. Nor do I think he's a misogynist. If you don't like him, you don't like him. But I don't think these kinds of comments are useful.
IpanemaNova · 28/03/2021 11:28

It’s the £126K he gave her that’s being investigated.

I think we all know what his character is by now.

SilverLiningSearching · 28/03/2021 11:44

His reputation proceeds him, a quick Google search would have told her all she needed to know about his form.
Don’t have much sympathy for OW who claim to have been treated badly, you were shagging a man married with kids for years, and you think he won’t have any qualms about treating you like trash?

There are rumours that BJ is already cheating on Carrie and has lodged a super injunction against the press. He will never change!

SarahAndQuack · 28/03/2021 12:05

It's not about 'liking' though, is it? We're not at a garden party. It's about his views, given he's our prime minister. He's misogynistic, homophobic, and racist. Even if I liked him very much, I would have issues with that.

SwitchUp · 28/03/2021 12:11

He requested racy images of her and said one raunchy picture was “enough to make a bishop kick a hole in a stained-glass window”.

💀💀💀

BlackCatShadow · 28/03/2021 12:16

There’s been something dodgy about the money used to renovate Number 10 as well, hasn’t there?

The affairs are one thing, the money thing is a much bigger issue.

I read it as Jennifer Archer! Now that would have been interesting! Getting her own back on Brian? 🤣
FoxyTheFox · 28/03/2021 13:49

Let's face it though, Boris Johnson could fall into a pile of shit and come up smelling of roses so I doubt these latest stories will do him much damage.
