Go, Boris!

I hope the leave brigade do not think that being entertaining on HIGNFY is a prerequisite for being PM.

I do not understand, Jalima. You say you defend Corbyn's right to change his mind, and then suggest he is not open and honest?

Have I got that right?

I did like Boris when he first appeared on HIGNFY and I think he has the capacity to be very amusing and entertaining, I'm just not sure that compensates for his lack of integrity.
I did watch Corbyn on "The Last Leg" and thought he came across as pleasant, not naturally relaxed in the spotlight but he dealt with some of the jokes pleasantly. He also gave a good account of why he had changed his mind and why he wouldn't appear with Dave. He didn't have the charisma, but I think he came across as honest.

But not quite!

However, I would defend anyone's right to change their mind and that includes Jeremy and Boris.
As long as they don't change back again after the referendum result

Such an open and honest man...

Ana I think I heard that somewhere too, all disappeared!

Apparently Corbyn has deleted all his previous anti-EU speeches from his website.

I've just been reading a book about the 1920s and it strikes me that Boris would have been someone mothers would have labelled as NSIT (Not safe in taxis)!

If this thread was about a labour politician then the Conservative side would dislike him/ her on principle.
As it is the Labour side are doing so on principle on this thread
^It doesn't matter if the Politician is Saint or Sinner
Only what side of the divide the electorate sits on.^

I do try to be even-handed
(If anyone read my post), although I didn't mention any unfaithful politicians from a few other parties I am sure there must be plenty

Particularly when the gold is not real, trisher.

From another group who wish to remain

I don't think Boris is a "good guy' I think his personal and public life reveal a man who has always adapted his principles to suit his personal needs and so has lost any integrity he might have once had. I don't know why he behaves as he does perhaps it is his over inflated ego. But his record on suppressing information and overruling borough planning decisions in London reveals someone who thinks he knows best and who is willing to lie and pull rank when it suits him-not someone I could approve of. Of course he may be very charismatic- haven't met him so can't comment on that. But as we all know "All that glisters...."

1993. Is that all you can come up with?
Boris's comment was in February, 2016. He changed his mind two months later.

In 1993, he spoke out against the Maastricht Treaty which established the European Union and moved towards economic and political union.
The treaty, Mr Corbyn said, "takes away from national parliaments the power to set economic policy and hands it over to an unelected set of bankers who will impose the economic policies of price stability, deflation and high unemployment throughout the European Community".

Blimey! He was right and all......RESPECT!

I'm sure someone will be able to come up with a quote from Corbyn befor he 'changed his mind'!

Bit like another long-running thread I could (but won't) mention

All agreeing with each other, and addressing each other by name - it's quite amusing, really!

Best tactic I agree practical as do others.....which is why you see whole pages of posts just written and answered by the same two/three people.

Just ignore posts you don't like, I do

This is getting ridiculous.

I answered with 2 from both parties.
oh POGS looks like you are in trouble for giving 2 answers.

POGS, 18.53.

I asked which question. You gave me two questions.

Re the hair, he does 'enhance' the natural colour. Says so in the article. Why does anyone care?
