Trump. An English slang word for hot air leaking out of an arsehole.
Johnson. An American slang word for a penis.
It looks like destiny has a sense of humour.

Well. No other word for Boris Johnson’s remarks and behavior tonight in HoC apart from disgraceful and dangerous.

Apart from the appalling performance from him tonight and despite continual rebukes from the members and the speaker, Johnson is now disregarding the normal processes and rules of the house.
I don’t know if you have three hours to spare to watch the whole thing but consensus is this is the most belligerent rude and antagonistic session of parliament by a PM in living memory. Probably ever.

With trump it’s just ramblings in interviews and rantings on twitter.
This is a prime minister doing it in real time in the House of Commons.
This will all be recorded in Hansard.

Is Boris under pressure from people who have invested billions in shorting the pound?

Look up Nigel Farage and his pals. Billions made the night of the referendum.
Johnson’s main backer has already made £200 million betting against sterling and British businesses.

Not yet. Just at the bit where the Irish fenian has infiltrated the family and daughter born and mother died.
No spoilers.
