Declaring in tonight’s Standard that the race to succeed David Cameron is very much on, Matt d’Ancona has coined the definitive word for Boris supporters: “BoJo-vians”.
Guido will be hereby adopting the phrase, but who should make the list?

Ai Weiwei in China fighting the taxman…
“Under totalitarian rule, no one is protected by law. We will all be the same helpless victims. When a country insists on its lies, it’s time for an artist to bring forth change.”
Google-eyed-Dave
hereby.
heresy.
But not yet!
Meanwhile, Ed Miliband has dismissed the reshuffle as ‘the same old faces’.
He said this whilst sitting next to the fresh young faces of Ed Balls, Harriet Harman et al, apparently with a straight face and without the slightest trace of irony.
Oh Lord give me irony but not yet!
Me ??
Hereby. Jesus.
Heresy. BeJazus.
Yourself obviously. Can’t think of any others.
I’m in.
Bo-Jo-zzles?
Urban dictionary assures me they should be called “Johnsons”
What list? Useless gits ‘r’ us?
Bo-Jo-ngles?
Here here.
Bo-Jo-bs-r-us
Bozzanauts?
A most excellent term. When will it enter the OED?
BoJo-ers. Sounds like ‘bodgers’. Might work.
The Cult of Personality.
Shagger Johnson has no chance. He has more skeletons in his cupboards than the BMA.
Shagger Johnson took London from under Labour’s nose. And held it.
People like Boris. Except for the bedwetters. And, well, fuck ‘em.
I was vaguely amused by boris. But the endless adulation is getting rather wierd.
I don’t quite get how he gets a free ride with everyone round here, he’s rather too interested in his own control and prepared to spend taxpayers money in odd places I really don’t think he should.
He only became Mayor of London due to a bus grudge. He could have just learned to ride a bike better.
He would too.
So you’re saying he has no chance against Cameron and none against Miliband?
He’d beat both, despite all his faults and errors, he has the best relationship to ordinary punters on the street of any current politician. Even people who don’t vote Tory will listen to him, he would wipe the floor with Millibean, Dave will most likely lose to Millbean or have to form another coalition.
I don’t think Boros could win outside of London – even in London his win over Livingstone was narrow. On the other hand Cameron did not win either, despite Gordon Brown’s unpopularity.
Hereby. The Daily Star Sunday subs wouldn’t have let that through.
Heresy. Through is what the Daily Star Sunday subs wouldn’t have let that.
I have a following, they’re called ‘Mingers’
My loyal supporters are ‘Wassocks’
Mine are called ‘Cleggnuts’
My huge fan base are all ‘Bollocks’
I’m a Minger!
My followers are all bananas. That’s not what I call them, mind– it’s just that anyone who thinks I have a future whilst Brother Ed is still in there is obviously bananas.
My followers are all cats.
CORBY,CORBY,CORBY,CORBY,CORBY.
Here we go ,Here we go .
Naturally, Mr Speaker, I have been working through the night on the formulations that will lead Britain into a prosperous and financially mauve future. My only companions during this lone vigil were nursey and Mr Pookey. I intend to do the same tomorrow night.
Mr Pookey will be absent tonight.
He needs to visit washy washy land in the spin-spin, Ok?
Fine
Vote for him
Nothing will change
What we need is a decisive leader such as myself who has a penchant for lederhosen (I did once own a pair)
What UKIP needs is yet another upper class twit in charge who is all in favour of the EU, amnesties and higher immigration. That should definitely get everyone outside London deserting the Tory party.
Don’t discourage BoJo.
What UKIP really needs is an elected MP. But that’s never going to happen, is it?
I seem to recall that Boris promised everyone a BMW and wives with bigger breasts if they voted conservative!
Dan Hannan!
Guido Fawkes?
“BoJovians.” I’ll have to think about that– not sure I like the sound of that. I may have to call in my lawyers. Stay tuned.
On Daily Politics, Andrew Neil asked Shapps if the next leadership contest might be him v Boris.
All Shapps could parry with was, “Naughty”.
Draw your own conclusions!
Have you got a crayon?
Boris is a rare thing a popular tory, i can’t think of another, not one
Thatcher, now that she is senile and doubly incontinent?
Mmmm, classy, jokes about the disabled. I thought you leftards were caring and compassionate? Obviously just another socialist lie then.
I’ve heard you can smell her 3 streets away.
and well deserved too.
Horrible Horrible Hunt
Correction, Borus is not the Cons leader, yet
Doesn’t matter one inch if Boris or Cameron or Miliband are in number 10, they all represent the same order of the day.
I see Boris’ sister in law, has left the BBC and landed a plum job working for the EU Commission, plus ca change etc.
My followers were called Donkeys with a red rosette
Oh I say!!! That’s jolly bad form!! Why doesn’t he talk up my simply splendid Government – of sorts?
My followers are called Postal Voters
Thank Stalin for those UKIP votes – my Ed would have lost to the hated Tory scumbag & would now not be in a position to implement his brilliant fiscal plan (Mk 2)
Those UKIP votes were offered to Dave on a silver platter, he chose to say piss off.
As usual, a thundering error of judgement by Mister ‘consistently wrong’ Cameron. The rest is history.
The tories will never win Liverpool anyway so he might as well go for the leadership. You have to say he made a very good job of not ballsing up the Olympics.
Borus tried his best
me
Zac Goldsmith, who’s going to take the Hundreds for him.
Boris is the new black.
Well I certainly ain’t.
My followers are call the Brownies
forgot me link
You might as well get Stringfellow as leader they are both in the same league, why wasn’t Borus at work while the London Olympic ©® games were on, a bit like Haguey in his days as opposition PM, in did not work for Haguey but seemed to work for Borus, there must have someone or a few people doing his job, so exactly does Borus do?
I was on my feet cheering and pissing myself with laughter when Ed Miliband commented on the reshuffle as “the same old faeces and policies”
It’s great to have some humour in the Commons.
Much like Miliband’s “new generation” are all washed up hacks, yes men and spivs from the Bliar / Braun years.
Suitably sprinkled of course, with a couple of NuLabour, Common Purpose newcomers, for a little token ‘fresh’ sparkle.
I just need one more follower then they’ll be know as ’4Skinners’
I think people like Boris because he is the only effective opposition to Dave and Co.
De Pfefflel Johnson, Stanley Johnson, Allegra Johnson, Howard Johnson, Jack Johnson – that’s enough Johnsons (Ed).
When a man is tired of Johnsons, he is tired of life; for there is in Johnsons all that life can afford.
I prefer Johanson, the Scarlett one.
Leave me out of it.
“Bojovians”? Hooba Hooba HooHoo, Hooba Hooba Hooba HooHoo
