Like I was just thinking this yesterday. Making her instagram rant seem measured and her NOTHING HAS CHANGED!!!1 bit seem less laughable by the second LikeHe is literally doing the same as her? Repeating the exit date. Going on and on about Corbyn. No responsibility. It’d be hilarious if I was watching this happen somewhere I didn’t live.

Boris rarely gets coverage this bad that’s sustained or that he can’t bluster his way out of it and it’s an obvious shock. Corbyn is watching like, pfff, amateur.

This speech sounds a lot of fun from ILX reports but BBC news is on in a minute and I would expect them to report it as a rhetorically effective performance that put the pressure where it belonged - on Labour.

It's been said by a bunch of us over and over again but BBC pundits' determination to represent the views of the gammon on the street has debased their journalistic credibility forever, it somehow keeps being shocking no matter how often you see it

Boris Johnson's speech and Q&A - Snap verdict
That was the most extraordinary prime ministerial press conference we’ve seen for years - perhaps not quite as dramatic as Theresa May’s “nothing has changed” meltdown, but certainly more peculiar. Even by Johnson’s standards, it was rambling and shambolic. The only rational explanation I can think for what happened is that it is all part of some ultra-cunning plan to convince Jeremy Corbyn that he can vote for an election because Johnson will be such a hopeless campaigner, but life normally doesn’t work like that. If it looks like a cock-up, it probably is a cock-up.

Letting BJ do a walkabout with Kuenssberg gives him too much -- for one thing he can be demagogue with passers-by and get them to shout for Brexit, for another he doesn't get asked serious questions as say Paxman might once have done.
As JC said: BJ is evading scrutiny to an extraordinary degree.
But the fainting cop really is one of the great moments of its kind.

can i just say i watched fatty soames’ commons speech (hoping for a bit more incontinent emotion) and basically fuck off soames^ realised i still had this in my drafts. on the speech. imo johnson is genuinely of the view that he can improvise anything and people will find it charming and he doesn’t need a script. because he is indulged and pampered and always has been no one normal has told him it’s excruciatingly embarrassing even as performance, let alone as something intended for serious consumption rather than a warm-up act or after dinner drunk pabulum.
