Can everyone stop calling everyone else sir? It's disconcerting.

He ignored both of my responses too.

I've always liked you trousers

Lol no it didn't. It was actually very complementary in many areas.

Ah right so how do we decide who gets into power because they have done a good job and who gets into power because morons voted for them?

If that were true then he would not have been reelected as mayor.

The fact he won't admit about being pm is completely obvious. It is clear he doesn't want to get involved with that whilst Cameron is still the leader and in office. It would undermine his party and weaken their position at the next election No politician in his position would admit to that. He will admit it when the time is right because shock horror he wants to win so will announce it when it is the best time to and not before. Being straight talking does not mean giving your opinion in everything so transparebtly at all times, if he were to do that then he would be committing political suicide but he is a darn sight better than every other politician I have had the misfortune to listen to. But then you know all this...

I felt exactly the same. He was caught unawares so it wasn't the greatest interview ever but I really couldn't give a stuff about his private life. He is a charismatic and popular politician - the only one of his kind that we have in the country.

The usual regular dry politicians, those from his own party and others who will say that Boris is not your usual choice for pm as if that is a bad thing. As they said in the documentary Boris makes people feel good about themselves he gets people engaged in politics that otherwise wouldn't be. The patriotism and feelgood factor for being British he inspired during the Olympics was brilliant and he made a huge contribution to the success of the summer. There is a reason that voter turnout is so low in the country and it's because of people like ed milliband and Cameron. I want to see people engaged in politics and Boris will offer that as well as fighting our corner properly in Europe which I totally agree with and I believe he will do what is right for Britain Imo. He is a very clever bloke and again in the documentary one of the people who knows him well said that he believed he would understand the importance of being prime minister and would make wise decisions. One poor interview is not enough to derail any future campaign for pm and it will be easily explained away when needed.

Thought he came across very well in the documentary. The usual people scared of something different that may shake up the system are dismissing Boris. I hope he can do it even if he doesn't have that much chance IMO.

I'll tell my work colleague to work harder to ensure he stays...

Pretty sure you won pedant of the year on here many years ago Hamilton...

I read about almost all those allegations years ago. Would still prefer him as PM over the current lot.

Lol.

None of them are acceptable. In fact the England crest is just about the worst.

I agree. Tattoos are for pikeys (and I include my sister in that.)

It's move and fire...

Yes very possible.

You do realise a lot of players say that at every club? I mean I'm sure players said it at West Ham and reading this year. Players say a lot of things in interviews- they have pr training for a reason. The fact of the matter is that if a big club wants them they will be off no matter how much ambition we are currently showing.

Yes that is possible. It still is difficult though.

It's not one hell of an ask it's impossible.

This was always going to be the problem with buying young English talent. Good position to be in though. Surprised cork hasn't been linked with anyone yet.

Why not just all saints?

It isn't. It really really isn't. My display picture has nothing to do with anything.

I can think of a few points he has proven.
