The then-PM questioned Government health experts on whether people could get rid of coronavirus with hot air after he watched a YouTube clip that suggested this
I suspect this came about because he is trying to distract from a scandal in a Google search. Like when he said he likes to build model buses to distract from the scandal where he advertised lies about brexit on buses. Or when he said he doesn’t like working from home because it “makes him think of cheese” to distract from his illegal wine and cheese party during the covid19 lock down.
Basically you make something impossible to search for by doing something involving those same terms.
Many people accused Kevin Spacey of doing this when he took a movie role about a guy who was falsely accused of exploiting minors. But that was just a coincidence, however what Boris was doing was the real deal.
You looked up Boris and cheese and you get this weird cheese quote instead of anything relating to his illegal party.
There was a Governor in the US who tried it but it backfired. As soon as he lost he pardoned basically every murderer and rapist in the state to try to get headlines complaining about the Governor setting the bad guys free, trying to make the new guy look bad.
This didn’t work because they used his name instead of his title, so everyone knew specifically which Governor was to blame.
Imagine trump, but with the brains to do damage, and the ability to cover his tracks. (Based on what we know he’s done, I dread to think what he’s gotten away with).
At least he has a relatively anxious existence at home with his (current) wife who appears to have him by the short and curlies. Not that it will occur to him that this might be karmic justice of some sort. (And if it does, his ego and bluster will bury the idea deep in his psyche where he won’t have to look at it.)
Or ordering a quite impractical routemaster replacement that was more for decoration than for transport (the company who built it couldn’t sell any and went bankrupt)
Wow. He really is the British Trump, isn’t he?
Trump is an idiot. Boris plays the fool.

The guy is pure irredeemable scum.
This is a tactic called memory holing.

I mean…they do sound similar. 😬

Let’s not forget the time he hid in a fridge.
did he survive a nuclear detonation?
Have to wait for his autobiography for that.
