Boris: daft as a brush or sly old fox?

On 2nd May 2008, 1,168,738 Londoners voted Boris Johnson Mayor of London. Beneath the bumbling public schoolboy caricature, is Boris really a shrewd and calculating political genius, or is he simply a buffoon? Peruse some of his most bizarre quotes and decide for yourself...

    Yes, lets have Boris as Prime Minister as well. He would be the only prime minister in British history (except winston Churchill) that has ever been liked by almost everyone.,

    Boris is a political commedian. I like him. Every government should have one. He's the Ken Dod of politics. He does not appear tp take politics seriously but his on the truth and make people laugh. If he were to make it to be prime minister, which I doubt, it would take the back stabbing and jeering out of politics to become a lighter and happier atmosphere which it should be. Many may even forget which poitical party they belong to. nothing would get done so there would be no interferance with our schools, NHS, police, etc. which would then be left to the experts like before Maggy Thatcher was pm. She even took away school milk from the kids - what a horrible person. She even tried to tax car boot sales next would be to tax kids pocket money which Gordon Brown will do next. Boris would never do that - or would he? He's as daft as a brush but a lot more hones than both Gordon Brown and Maggie Thatcher.

    Boris is no dumb blonde- he is eccentric and clever! That is not to say he is depraved-he is a politician after all!
