Smirking and laughing as Sunak talks about Ukrainian children huddled in basements seeking protection:

@Kendodd

he clearly doesn't give a shit about anyone other than himself so why would he care about Ukraine? It's all one big game to him. Actually I bet he's thanking his lucky start that Putin invaded Ukraine, nice distraction from all Johnson's lock down parties.
And a distraction from all sorts of other things : corruption and sleaze, covid, the cost of living...

He's an embarrassment on the world stage as well as on the Front Bench. Foreign leaders often describe him as a serious politician.Wink

Wtf do the rest of the world think?!

I imagine most of us are sincerely pleased he isn't the leader of our countries!

I expect they think the electorate of the UK are really, really thick.

Well, there's a TV clip of Bozo, in Brussels yesterday, in which he's standing alone, ignored and hapless whilst the rest of the great and good are all back slapping and glad-handing each other. One picture can be worth a thousand words.

Kendodd · 25/03/2022 08:54

I don't know how he can even show his face in Europe given the barriers he's creating to dissuade Ukrainians from coming here and comparing voting to leave the EU to the Ukraine war.

It's an edited clip. If you watch the full clip he is seen being greeted enthusiastically and talking to everyone. You mustn't lap up all the mainstream media's crap.

Oh dear, more fake news, ho hum.

At least he knows what a woman is, and is prepared to say so.
So he should, he’s got plenty of them pregnant!

BBC news. Known and mistrusted across the world. Better stick to Fox and Mr Murdoch.

I have watched the full clip of BJ twice. Whilst the editing of the short clip appears unfair, the full 2min46 is really not good either.

His body language is appalling, he's the only one with his hands in the pockets of a too small suit jacket, (that is shallow to criticise I know, but he really looked a mess compared to all other member leaders) but most importantly, whilst he was greeted here and there and chatted, the overall impression I got was that he was largely cold shouldered. However, this impression I got could be from his body language which as I say, was not good.

SueSaid · 25/03/2022 11:22

Yes rousette he does look a bit awkward with his hands in his pockets etc however the clip the pp was referring to was edited to make it look like he was snubbed and ignored which is just not true when you see the full clip.
Weird that any 'known and mistrusted' broadcast (lol) like the BBC would peddle this crap.

Roussette · 25/03/2022 12:28

I agree Janiie the whole clip is not so bad as the excerpt of it.

What doesn't help is (I think) him trading on the buffoon man-of-the-people comic type of guy which gains him votes, they love it. But then... when faced with important occasions with leaders of countries on a world stage, he doesn't seem to be able to snap out of that persona, and look professional and business like.
Basically... he does himself no favours! It's red meat for detractors like me Grin

TooBigForMyBoots · 25/03/2022 14:52

I noticed he was well groomed on his trip to Saudi.

CapMarvel · 25/03/2022 14:57

Did the TV edit in the illfitting suit which he clearly can't button up and his insistence on slouching around with his hands in his pockets?

longwayoff · 25/03/2022 15:04

Carrie probably dropped him off at the groomer with Dylan prior to Saudi.

Yeah he does know what a woman is, someone to shag and leave, and someone to screw again through economic policy. Fucking ridiculous how some think Boris Johnson is on the side of women, it’s like the Northern working class red wall of voters thinking the Tories were going to level up opportunities for them.

The only group Tories support are donors, shareholders and the super rich.
