In my mind I think of him as an overgrown public school boy dying to break into the adult world of politics.

What about his physical likeness to Donald Trump??
Apparently on a visit to the States he was mistaken for Donald.

He's funny and charming in the manner of a big lollopy labrador who slobbers over you, but has adorable eyes ;-)..... and I wouldn't trust him as far as I could throw him lol. Hard won knowledge that, as Rollo puts it, "Chancers always have an affable demeanour" :-)

Mind like a steel trap he has ( Boris that is not Rollo ;-) ) He knows what he's doing when he plays the fool to win the crowd, helped by a certain way with words. Still I like him better than Dave and George, IDS, Gove et al, who have never made me laugh ;-)

That's 2 LIKES, 8 DONT LIKE and 1 DK then.
To that you can of course add Brave Dave and Gorgeous George at no.11.

Each to his own.

He comes across as a buffoon but my opinion is he could be a nasty piece of work behind the personna

Chancers always have an affable demeanour. As Guinevere says don't be taken in by it.

Don't underestimate him. His playing to the crowd and buffoonery are deliberately manipulated parts of his public persona. I don't know him, but I'll bet that, underneath, he can be as cold as ice and ruthless.

Never sure how his career survived after he had an affair and an illegitimate child he never sees but Cecil Parkinson was roundly (and rightly) condemned for exactly the same thing.

Awful man. :-|
