We all know he's a buffoon, but the papers wouldn't be running this unless it was true.
He's divorced. I get that. But what sort of an idiot is it that needs a woman to perform?

I don’t give a shiny shite how much he weighs, or about his amorous life. I don’t want him as PM because his politics consist entirely of mendacious self-promotion.

Rory, is this you?

The ex-Foreign Secretary has had at least four extra-marital affairs and made at least two of his mistresses pregnant.

Well some women must have coped with him bouncing around on them!

Graphista, I don't see any evidence to suggest that he is a staunch right-winger. I do, however, think that he is not a detail man, that he likes grandiose vanity projects and that his reliance on his intellectual ability has allowed him to be lazy, with the result that he is not always sufficiently careful. I think this is what happened with Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe. Whether the consequences would have been different without his gaffe we will never know. It is clear that Iran has enjoyed playing games with her life, so maybe it made no difference. However, someone in such an important role cannot afford to be less than careful with their choice of words.

Imagine if this was a woman you were talking about?
Mind you, the vicious crowing and glee over Teresa Mays tears was sickening enough. I don’t like her politics , but the extent of the misogyny and spite towards her was shameful.

He's renowned for infidelity. Allegedly.

I couldn't give a shit if I thought he had the welfare of this country at heart. He couldn't give two continental shits. THAT is not who I want running the country.

He could have 10 mistresses. But he's swanning around the place, bagging women for a price, because as sure as not, the 20 year olds are not finding him attractive.

It's ridiculous putting someone so morally inept in charge of the country.

OP you sound appalling, being obese, your accent, and your sexlife are not indicative of your ability to run the country or anything else. Stop being such an arsehole.

MustShowDH · 26/05/2019 00:14

"I don't care really, but......"

Wow, all that venom makes it sound like you care a lot OP!

Politics is corrupt enough as it is without putting an obese 50 year old who bagged a 20 year old into Downing Street!
It's lunacy!

OK, put it this way, his new woman/girlfriend is not with him for his physique and virility. And he's not with her for her mind.

MoonstoneMagic · 26/05/2019 00:19

‘Bagged’ ? You sound like you have a real axe to grind. I assume the 20 year old can make her own decisions. He’s not stuffing her in a bag. You know nothing about his relationships. I don’t like him and wouldn’t vote for him but you sound far too invested.

blackteasplease · 26/05/2019 00:24

Well he's fucking awful yes. Dishonest to The extent of actual criminality.

But no his weight is neither here nor there.

In fact his infidelity and personal life are neither here nor there to me.

Its the fact he's an amoral arsehole (admittedly a likely cause if his infidelity) who would happily watch this country burn if he could be prime minister and have a jolly good laugh.

theWarOnPeace · 26/05/2019 00:27

Ill-informed, full of hyperbolic claptrap.... I reckon you and Boris would get on well!

CatAndHisKit · 26/05/2019 00:29

who says we want him running the country? No Boris, please!
I'd be for Rory Stewart or maybe Amber Rudd.

OP did your husband leave you for a much younger woman?

CatAndHisKit · 26/05/2019 00:34

AndTheEnd but England won't be voting - it's the party who'll decide. I'm sure plenty of Conservatives will not want him as a leader, whatever their reasons are.

Snog marry avoid: Boris, Gove, Rees Mog.

if he comes the tories will truly disintegrate.

Snog Hove. Few tequilas, sure we've all snogged worse. Marry RM then divorce him for half his money. Avoid Boris.

@AndTheEnd you'd do better of using in his personality and politics. His weight is immaterial, he's not running the marathon. Why an adult women wants to be in a relationship with him and what their preferred sexual position is has nothing to do with anyone but them. Should we be asking TM how she likes it with Mr May??
