Wow....

​​​​​So, you have intimate evidence of the above? Or is it yet another of your crass posts?

I...erm... hesitate to ask but do you have any sources to back those claims up? It is obvious from looking at him that he could do with shedding a few pounds, but whence the cocaine habit rumours?

He's observably obese. He's often pictured staggering around drunk, for example after his trip to Italy with the Russian mafioso and in factories on his Brexit tours.. He says he smokes cigars though whether him saying something is true makes it more or less likely to be true is arguable. That's much is a matter of public record. Cocaine, just a rumour and stated as such.

There's nothing crass there, the man's a walking advert for pancreatic cancer and heart attacks. Admittedly it's more likely that one of his abandoned children will come back and kill him than the cancer but it's not unfair to say he's extremely unhealthy.

Which would you say was my most crass post?

Here's Boris doing the walk of shame: https://www.theguardian.com/politics...-perugia-party

I trust that adequately supports the suggestion that he's a drunk.

Here he is getting the cocaine rumour rolling. He says he only smoked weed and didn't succeed with cocaine but it's Boris, how much of that are you going to swallow:

Note that I don't think him worse for doing these things, they just suggest that he's not healthy and so likely to kick the bucket.

Here he is changing his mind, cocaine was a thing for him: https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/politi...dmits-16517649

Of course his claim is no more credible than his denial. We've no reason to believe a word he says.

This is a known associate of Johnson. He surely enjoys the Bolivian Marching Powder. https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/927538...caine-scandal/

For a sober man Johnson mingles with some shifty characters.

That'll be Dominic Raab for a couple of weeks then the bookies say Sunak.

I should ne clear. Johnson being a feckless drunk careless with his health makes him likely to die of CV. That's not what makes him a terrible PM.

This thread has left a bad taste in my mouth.
Whilst I might have, like many, criticized the man while he was careering around doing what he did, I'll not sink to demonising the man whilst he lies on what may very well become his death bed.
There'll be those who'll claim self righteously, 'But I'm only telling the truth', well I'm tempted to suggest that, like the noble publications they quote, they do it so well.
Let those without sin.......

...

I'm not demonising him, This isn't about his evil politics. If I was in the hospital then my life, as lived, would count against me too. Some people choose to try and live a long time. Some don't. He didn't.

I speak as I find.

He was sent to ICU as a "precautionary measure"... I do hope he's not keeping a needy and deserving patient out of a critical care bed.

Johnson deliberately chose to forge a journalistic career, a political career and a personal life based on a foundation of lies and blatant self-interest. And now suddenly we're expected to wish him a speedy recovery back to the place he never ought to have been near?

I don't wish him dead; I just don't want to see him back in office telling more lies.
