In the last week, Boris Johnson announces that one of his hobbies is painting model buses. It’s a bit left field and quite specific, but nobody thinks much of it.

Except! That bow when you google ‘boris bus’, instead of getting articles about how he wilfully misled voters in the eu referendum with that bus saying £350mil would go to the nhs post brexit, you get news stories about his quirky model bus hobby.

Someone on his PR team is bloody good at their job...!

Of course it’s deliberate. How can it have taken you so long to twig?

YANBU OP, sneaky buggers.

You’re obviously having a bad day! Hope it improves for you Grin

I’ve only just seen the model bus story myself. Very sneaky and clever - I loathe the man, but I’m impressed.

His PR people are very clever.

Keeps things like this hidden

Well it's better than those cringeworthy staged photos taken by 'onlookers' on the picnic table.

It's a sticky wicket, doing PR for BoJo. I can't begrudge them their tiny successes Grin

Well it never occurred to me, because I didn't stop to think about it. But I thought there was something weird and wrong about the whole thing. So thanks OP - pieces falling into place now!
Jeez still can't believe this crapulous individual is going to be leading the country.

Terrifying, isn’t it?

Does anyone else think that if/when they are living in no. 10 she’s going to be behind the spin doctoring/policy? I bet he gives her a high-paying appointment to keep her happy!

Makes you wonder what else he’s covering up doesn’t it? Looks like she’s just as devious and untrustworthy as him
