What will Boris Johnson do for a job

[DogDramas]

After he’s kicked out of Downing Street?

I wouldn’t employ him as an over-priced consultant/board director. Does anyone want to read his spaffing columns anymore? The chances that he might lose his seat at the next election are quite high.

Not sure if this is going to be a light-hearted thread or not. For what it’s worth, I hope that he ends up:

1. in prison
2. in Russia where we never hear of him again
3. Single, in a seaside bed sit on UC.
4. Shunned by the world

On a lighter note, I want to see him:

1. In the jungle
2. On Dancing on Ice
3. In a pop duo with Prince Andrew and their one hit wonder “Donald, where’re our trousers?”

Or launching his own brand of Big Dog pet food?

I’d have thought this would have given him an idea:

I'd imagine he can survive off the interest on his trust fund just fine.

He'll do anything for a job, but he won't do that (work).

Sadly, I can't see him going anywhere, so PM will still be his JD.

I used to think his post-No 10 game plan would have included going to the US and hanging out with Trump, maybe even reviving his US citizenship (not sure if you can do that, mind) and running for office over there.

Hmm. Well, he's got a young family, perhaps he can stay at home and do a bit of childcare while Mrs J keeps the wolf from the door. As if.

Even the most useless of ex politicians get companies willing to pay them squillions for directorships so he’ll be no different. And if your 1-4 didn’t happen to Blair, it won’t happen to Johnson I fear.

Apparently supermarkets are always in need of shelf stackers/delivery drivers.

Picking fruit on a farm? He can live onsite too.

They could do a special series of I'm a Celeb/Dancing on Ice/Strictly with all ex PMs
Or even better, The Hunger Games, ex PM edition

The winner can have a job washing dishes in the subsidised restaurant at Parliament.

He'll hit the extremely lucrative after dinner speaking circuit and sadly (as there is no justice) probably make millions aka Cameron

Even if he goes, he'll still get an incredibly well paid non-exec / advisor role (or three), and a certain sector of society will pay him handsomely for after dinner speeches. Maybe he'll reprise his Peppa Pig classic.

He'll do very well indeed, because people like him don't get paid to 'work', they get paid for access to their powerful connections (of which he has plenty). Oh and he also has his trust fund.

The world is neither just nor fair.

Journalist, but not at the Spectator or the Telegraph. GB News until it runs out of cash? The Times? He commanded huge fees as an after dinner speaker and probably still would.

AFAIK he doesn't have a trust fund, or not of the sort of size he'd need to keep him in the income he needs for full time nannies, top whack private school for ?3?4 children, holidays in Mustique and Carrie's tastes in interior decor. That's the reason for half the problems he's had in the last two years. He needs an income of about half a million for the lifestyle he wants to lead,

Due to Covid there aren’t any more dinners where you have After Dinner speakers. Even David Cameron isn’t loaded as he was found begging his ex colleagues for contacts for coins.

You are extremely naive if you think the posh London clubs aren't going to hold any more dinners. How will they maintain the old boy's network?

Covid has not changed the planet forever. Pandemics come and go, but one guarantee is that the rich will still get richer while the rest of us slave away. Even in the harshest lockdown, number 10 carried on holding parties, and I imagine many of the wealthy elite were doing similar. Rules are for the little people.

Also, David Cameron's definition of 'not loaded' is slightly different to the rest of us. He is definitely not skint!

The Times? He commanded huge fees as an after dinner speaker and probably still would.

Yes, the bumbling, latin-quoting posho act goes down very well with some people, it seems.
