> My Idiot Buffoon Prime Minister couldn't possibly be this Conniving!Consider the NHS claims on his infamous Brexit Bus, pic related, that he drove around during the vote. It was wrong on multiple accounts, but was, by this time last year, off the table anyhow. He famously was interviewed about his hobbies, and then rambled for a bit about making model buses in the least normal was possible. This pushed off pics of the bus down a page or two on google, due to articles like "Boris waffles about model buses like some sort of alien".
(I'm personally skeptical this was an entirely purposeful action on his part; its too like the "5D chess" claims that get bandied about whenever a public figure does something stupid. It illustrates the general principle, though)
