Boris Johnson's toxic leadership launch proves we can't trust him to run a bath

Cowardly, poisonous, slapdash, untrustworthy, evasive, incompetent, arrogant, idle, unpleasant, toxic, conceited and a serial liar are just a few of the reasons why Boris Johnson shouldn’t be trusted to run a bath never mind the country.

The reactionary Tory sect imposing this dangerous buffoon on Britain would be an act of malignant patronage that would shame a corrupt banana republic.

Surfacing momentarily to spout rhetoric devoid of truth, then avoid honest answers to just SIX questions he allowed from journalists in front of braying supporters, Britain’s Trump mini-me reminded us why he shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near No 10.

The joke, a very bad joke, will be on us if this worse than useless graceless clown is made Prime Minister when the idiot yet again demonstrated his unsuitability for the job.

Jalopy Johnson airbrushing from his CV a woeful recent spell as Foreign Secretary, turning the nation’s friends into enemies and with a slipshod blunder extending the Tehran jail sentence of of British-Iranian mother, was a clumsy admission he failed terribly a crucial test for the top job.

When over the next few weeks we’re more likely to see Lord Lucan riding a unicorn than this rancid hoaxer being open the country’s democracy is undermined by his absence of transparency and accountability.

Questions more significant exist than when and what illegal drugs he consumed but hypocrisy is a serious charge after he supported locking others up, working class kids imprisoned for crimes reduced to the status of unpunished regrettable mistakes by posh twisters such as Johnson and Michael Gove. 

Johnson’s Tory fan boys booing Sky News political editor Beth Rigby’s legitimate questions and applauding their sorcerer’s justification of incendiary mockery of vulnerable British Muslim women is the self-importance of a malicious cult.

And then there is the charade of Brexit fantasies to incite a crowd when even Johnson must know his pretence about swiftly renegotiating a super-duper departure deal from Europe in a couple of months is a complete fabrication.

A Tory whose only accomplishments as London Mayor were wasting a small fortune of taxpayers’ money on an unbuilt garden bridge and unlawful water cannon is a liability.

Remember how Johnson fled half way around the world to miss a Heathrow airport crucial vote after vowing to lie in front of the bulldozers.

He’d probably sell out the Brextremists if he cons his way into Downing Street.

Boris Johnson cares only about Boris Johnson. Hoodwinked Tories land the calamity fibber on us and the Conservative Party will deserve extinction.
