To think Boris has got what he always wanted?

Boris has been vocal on his admiration for Churchill, he grew up wanting to be a PM, he wanted to be remembered like Churchill, he wanted to make history. Without doubt he's done it, there has been no one since Churchill who has done as much to fill history books. OK so he wanted to Get Brexit Done rather than a pandemic and I know that's out of his hands but isn't this the biggest lesson in 'be careful what you wish for?'

The only history he'll make is for being the biggest most incompetent arse to ever hold the highest office in the land.

No one can take that away from Gordon Brown!

David Cameron already did.

Wasn't Gordon Brown organising cobra meetings daily at 7 am during the foot and mouth crisis? Boris Johnson's woefull attendance at cobra meetings during the covid pandemic has been well documented.

It's a really unnecessary distraction to compare Johnson with other PMs. Just judge him on the job he's done. Bad overall, but could be getting better (probably because he can't stand the criticism - doubtful it's due to concern about the health of country).
