Boris Johnson reveals he is joining GB News

Boris Johnson has revealed he is getting his own programme on GB News ā€“ the latest Tory politician to join the right-wing TV channel as a presenter.

In a video posted on X, the troublesome former PM said he was ā€œexcitedā€ to sign up to the ā€œremarkableā€ new channel ā€“ boasting that the show would allow him to share his ā€œunvarnished viewsā€ on politics

Never watched it, but if I needed any reason to not watch it, this is it

No one watches it. The only reason you hear about it is because of left wing pundits complaining about how awful it is. I mean an ordinary member of the public was once exposed to it in a cruel experiment. I donā€™t think it went well:

Boris talking about unvarnished is code for that time the Eton headmaster sodomised him without foreplay.

A smattering from the thousands of comments posted regards this clip on YT:

Therese Coffey is not stupid. She is utterly shameless and very good at avoiding any responsibility as she doesnā€™t want to do anything. She couldnā€™t care less and has zero empathy.

@moonshine9902]
Sheā€™ll be a PM at this rate.

If ever there was an example of someone that does not know what she is doing, this woman is it

Iā€™ve found that the rain generally falls from the sky, rivers flow downhill and the tides are dictated by the moon and not the seasons, but what the hell do I know, Iā€™m not an overrated Tory minister.

@seangalbraith5286]
I canā€™t believe I have just heard this s**t. Is she for real !!! For goodness sake letā€™s have an election and send her and the rest of the worst government weā€™ve ever had packing

[@starmanjames119]

Sheā€™s always got someone else to blame, but this is a new one even for her! Definitely one of the most pitifully useless MPā€™s these tories have inflicted on us.

[@pureplay7071]

Just when you think you have seen the depth of this governments incompetence, they just keep finding another level.

[@octavianpopescu4776]

When you run out of people to blameā€¦ blame nature itself.

It was obvious at the time that Boris had no clue, and everything coming out today has just proved it, but it shows the rest were just as clueless, if not more so

Indeed. I canā€™t think of a worse pm to have at a worse time, other than Truss maybe.

But there had to be some brains somewhere. You donā€™t go setting up privileged procurement routes, favoured contracts, MPs with sudden business interests in PPE without a brain or two and some networking.

I doubt there was that much brainwork involved.

Maybe, I just find it ironic that they were quick and creative enough to find ways of increasing their personal wealth by milking public money but couldnā€™t manage shit when it came to public health.

Cummings still trying to prove to the world he is anything other than a cretin like the rest of them.

A top-tier cunt, though I did enjoy his vindictiveness in trying to bring down blonde-haired walrus-cunt.

Yes, Prime Minister was never that sweary.

So far this enquiry has just been about useless government but these events are planned for. Iā€™m interested to see what the senior civil servants have to say because they will have opened the files and told the ministers what they should be doing.

Iā€™m pretty sure that they have done this at some stage because I recognised some of the procedures put in place for communications and vaccinations. (At least what the Scottish government were doing which is mainly what I was involved in.)

From a UK government point of view it looks like they simply ignored emergency planning and tried to see how they could make money out of the situation.

It sounds like they were wanting/trying to kill old people, isnā€™t that discrimination?
