Boris: “I Want to Assume Supreme Power”

Boris Johnson has let slip, again, that his eye is on a bigger prize. Speaking to NY Mag, the London Mayor said:

“We have to have a new airport. One of the only reasons I want to assume supreme power in England is to make sure that happens“.

He then told his interviewer:

For God’s sake, don’t quote me saying that“.

Look out for an olive that looks like BoJo…

      By his own admission above, he doesn’t seem to have many policies. Wouldn’t they be useful?

          Simply doing nothing is compounding the injustices and makes him part of the problem and not the solution.

        Better a few, well thought out policies than a raft of sound bites stuck to a blank piece of paper. Boris is astute, has vision, is honest for a politician and is liked. His sexual peccadillos are nobodies business but that of his wife and mistresses. Unlike CMD, he had the guts to dispose of any of his political allies who were found to be corrupted- unlike the parliamentary leaders, or in the case of Labour, the union masters. The conservatives could do worse than have Boris as leader.

      The jury is still out in many parts of London.

      Will he save IDS’s bacon and stop the destruction of Walthamstow dogtrack?

      Does he have anything useful to say about the corruption in the London boroughs or is he content for the waste and troughing to continue?

      Will he demand voting reforms and an end to postal votes?

      Totally committed to Turkey joining the EU.

      Glad he beat Kenslime, but dear god keep him our of Number 10.

      Anyway, after Cameron will come two terms in opposition for the Tories – followed by a new Thatcher, not a clown like Bojo.

        Boris for Emperor says:

        Well, he is partly Turkish, and an admirer of the Roman Empire. Perhaps he could be Britain’s Ataturk, sweep away the whole rotten Establishment, and even take over Europe. Hang’em all Emperor Boris!

    The following piece by Boris could have been written by Nigel Farage four years ago, apart from all the educated posh crap. But why weren’t you saying this four years ago, Boris, if you are so fecking clever?

    http://www.telegraph.co.uk/comment/9337911/Dithering-Europe-is-heading-for-the-democratic-dark-ages.html#

    “There is no plan for Greece to leave the euro, or none that I can discover. No European leader dares suggest that this might be possible, since that would be to profane the religion of Ever Closer Union. Instead we are all meant to be conniving in a plan to create a fiscal union which (if it were to mean anything) would mean undermining the fundamentals of Western democracy. “

    The Tory party, in parts, have been pushing for less EU, including unceremoniously leaving it, years before UKIP were even dreamt up by a bitter billionaire asset stripper and womaniser.

    The EU was fundamentally an attempt to stop a third round of Germany VS Europe – this time it’s personal. Unfortunately the Germans are extremely good administrators, so the greater and more complex the EU bureaucracy becomes, the more the Germans thrive.

    The isolationist stance of the UKIP agenda and the alternative “all in” ideas of Germany should be seen as nothing but a sideshow to the UK’s national interest.

    We should accept the bits that advantage us, and refuse to take that which doesn’t.

    We need to rediscover and joyously embrace the “Perfidious” part of “Albion” again

      You make it sound like being a billionaire asset-stripper and womaniser is a bad thing.

      Asset stripping is selling assets to someone who will pay a higher price for them. They are not destroyed merely reallocated to someone who will exploit them more efficiently and/or effectively; read Schumpeter.

      Only in Judaeo-Christian culture is womanising seen as a failing. One is wrong with making more than one woman happy, if only for a while.

      Lastly, Germany has thrived because its terms of trade have significantly improved both within the trading bloc it is in and externally. If Germany was still using the Deutschemark it would be trading at a significant premium to where the Euro is and has been; the Bundesbank would also have higher interest rates. It is the German surge in productivity over the last ten/fifteen years that has fucked the fixed exchange system. If Germany had not improved its productivity so much there would be less of a problem. By being in the Euro the Germans are benefitting from an artificially depressed exchange rate.

        No – asset stripping is taking, usually, a viable company experiencing cash flow difficulties, identifying the worth of the assets held by the company at that moment in time represent a significant profit for the , as it were, stripper, and disolving the combined business by selling the components.

        Jimmy Goldenballs – loved fucking businesses, woman and anyone who wouldn’t do what he said, and had no sense of empathy nor conscience – and all to make him richer and feel better about himself.

        Never built and run a damned thing in his life outside of asset stripping at another’s expense – no creative “vision” – would rank very high on the psychopath test.

        UKIP ARE isolationists Soph. love – that’s what isolationist means – not having treaties and alliances with others. Do try and keep up.

    Mili Singing Boris's Dream Is Over says:

    I will campaign for a new electoral system like Germany’s and win over the libdems and keep conservatives out of power for ever (Germany’s electoral system combines constituencies with proportional representation).

    Boris must face it: a labour-libdem deal to introduce a German-style elctoral system would be a masterblast.

      What utter bollocks. It would mean eternal coalitions, regional governments of the knd Prescott wanted and voter subsidised political parties.

      • 49

        Actually, tax-payer-subsidised political parties. Non-tax-payers still have the vote. That way, LabLibCon wouldn’t have to lie to the electorate for funding to win elections with promises they have no intention of keeping.

    The albino Turk should shut the fuck up about new fucking airports. The south of England is about the most overcrowded part of Europe if not the world. If ten million immigrants had not enriched us with their diversity in the last few years we might have room to breathe without needed any new sodding airports. Anyway. hasn’t Boris drunk the Green Koolade? What’s so green about a new bleeding airport? Does he think the planes will run on Richard Branson’s fart gas?

Ed Balls stretches credulity by claiming he isn’t ambitious

“I would love to be part of Ed’s Labour government but what I do next for me is not an all-consuming passion. I’m more bothered, in a personal sense, about getting to grade 8 piano by the time I’m 50.”
