Wow! 2 to 1 margin. Of who? Who was voting? Following the announcement of Johnson’s victory on Tuesday, U.K. opposition leader Jeremy Corbyn tweeted that Johnson had only won the support of fewer than 100,000 Conservative Party members ... (from link in the OP) So an internal vote of about 150,000 Conservative Party members. Note: U.K. Population (LIVE) The current population of the United Kingdom is 66,980,023 as of Monday, July 22, 2019, based on the latest United Nations estimates. link Perhaps that 2 to 1 margin isn't quite as impressive as one might think.

I'm thinking both he & Trump go to the same barber. Trying to hide that nasty bald spot in front. Mature men don't mind reality (not to mention, to some of us, a bald head is kinda sexy).

The Conservative Party of the United Kingdom selects Boris Johnson to head their party, which makes him Prime Minister for now, and this means President Trump will be reelected President of the United States because most people on this message board don't have comments to make concerning this event? Hmmmmm

When the PM is chosen by the party that holds the most seats, and the country has many parties, the PM isn't a representative of the people. His 'slam dunk' means his party wants him, but it doesn't mean the people want him.

I’ve been slowly balding at a glacial pace and keep mine buzzed between 1/8 inch and a 1/4 inch, when it gets longer it looks like shit. I don’t get those that keep a ridiculous combover.

... I don’t get those that keep a ridiculous combover. When I am in doubt on such things, my default explanation is always, "significant other".

Citizens from forty-one countries were polled. Barack Obama is the second most admired man in the world. Bill Gates is first. Michelle Obama is the most admired woman in the world. Donald trump is the 14th most admired in the world. Melania trump is the 19th most admired woman in the world. Michelle Obama is the world's most admired womanBritain most definitely does not love or even like trump as he falsely/lyingly states. HOW POPULAR IS DONALD TRUMP IN THE U.K.? PRESIDENT'S FAVORABILITY RATING FAR LOWER THAN BARACK OBAMA'SUnited Kingdom residents have an overwhelmingly unfavorable view of President Donald Trump, with recent polls showing only 21 percent of Great Britain having a positive opinion of the United States leader. Political opinion data from YouGov U.K. shows Trump, who is visiting the U.K. this week with his family, ranks only behind former President Barack Obama in terms of fame. But among U.K. residents surveyed between May 2018 and April 2019, two-thirds had a negative opinion of Trump, compared to only 11 percent who felt that way about Obama. The 45th and current president of the U.S. ranks 7th among the most popular foreign politicians in the U.K., just between Pakistan's Imran Khan and former U.S. President George W. Bush. HOW POPULAR IS DONALD TRUMP IN THE U.K.? PRESIDENT'S FAVORABILITY RATING FAR LOWER THAN BARACK OBAMA'S

Boris Johnson was a real weirdo years ago when I lived there. I can't imagine he Changed much.
