Boris the obnoxious

THE more we learn about Boris Johnson the more we discover the Foreign Secretary talks a dangerous amount of bull.

His backing of the Spanish bloodsport, in which animals are cut and wounded then slaughtered for fun, is totally obnoxious.

Johnson paid as little attention to detail to what really happens in bullfighting rings as he did before opening his big mouth and potentially doubling by five years the jail sentence of a British woman in Iran.

This Foreign Secretary never knows what he’s talking about. Killing animals for kicks is uncivilised and Johnson appears ignorant of the opposition in much of Spain.

Theresa May damages herself and Britain’s position in the world every day she lets jaded Johnson run wild in a Foreign Office that increasingly detests its Secretary of State.

If Johnson really thinks opposing bullfighting is political correctness gone mad, let him argue his case for animal cruelty in public.

We think the British public has had enough bull from this ridiculous limping Tory beast.
