BoJo is back (sadly)
SO confident of victory on June 8 are the Tories that they have even let Boris Johnson out in public. He called Labour’s Jeremy Corbyn ‘a mugwump’ in his usual attempt to show how clever-clever he is. It’s an American expression (Boris was born in New York) and he shabbily recycled the insult, for Sir Nicholas Soames called BoJo an ‘ocean-going mugwump’ last year. There are those who think BoJo a model of probity with a keen brain and considerable political nous. And then there are those who have actually met him.
