But he said it was "highly unlikely" he would one day stand to become Conservative leader, replacing David Cameron, as there was "no vacancy". Mr Johnson also promised to serve his term as London mayor, ending in 2016. The prime minister said it was "great news" that Mr Johnson was planning to return to Parliament. The mayor has been linked with a number of parliamentary seats, including Uxbridge and South Ruislip, in north-west London, but he said he did not have a particular target in mind.[/quote]
God bless that marvellous hair.
I want him to become the prime minister so badly.

[QUOTE=Marzipas;45609557]as funny as he is i dont think that would be a good thing[/QUOTE] Actually if I remember correctly (I think there was a thread on this a while back?) he was born in New York and has a dual American/English citizenship. If Hell ever decides to freeze over, he could have the chance to become president of the USA. I believe that would be considered "gg earth".

[QUOTE=RayvenQ;45609957]I'd rather not have someone who can't be arsed to brush their fucking hair running the entire country.[/QUOTE] I honestly doubt that brushing one's hair should have anything to do with politics.

[QUOTE=patq911;45610010]Literally all I know of this man is from Top Gear.[/QUOTE] He's very charismatic so lots of people like him. He is also pretty smart. He is also fairly right wing in that he sides with corporations over people and doesn't support regulation on banks. He has done some decent stuff for London but I don't think he should be PM.

[QUOTE=carcarcargo;45610258]He sounds like such a pompous nob there[/QUOTE] That's the whole reason we love him.
Rumours being he will get a seat in Merseyside.

Why not be PM and President at the same time and bring America back in to the Empire
[QUOTE=RayvenQ;45609957]I'd rather not have someone who can't be arsed to brush their fucking hair running the entire country.[/QUOTE] He's too busy with politics and can't find the time to brush his hair.

This raises real questions about who will be the leader of the Conservative Party in the coming years: Will it continue to be David Cameron- a middle-aged, upper-middle class, white male from a well-off family who went to Eton and Oxford? Or in a true upset, will the leadership be seized by Boris Johnson- a middle-aged, upper-middle class, white male from a well-off family who went to Eton and Oxford? Here's an artist's conception of what a potential debate between the two would look like: [IMG]http://img3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120429093102/nonciclopedia/images/2/2c/Jack_Johnson_e_John_Jackson_(futurama).jpg[/IMG]

[QUOTE=The mouse;45611857]Any Tory is better than Ed Miliband.[/QUOTE] They're both terrible
[QUOTE=dingusnin;45610344]Rumours being he will get a seat in Merseyside.[/QUOTE] nope this will never happen boris sounds like tyrion lannister
This is why Scotland shouldn't be part of the UK.
[QUOTE=carcarcargo;45609885]I'd rather not have a Tory as PM[/QUOTE] I'm a Tory voter, and I'd rather not have a corrupt philanderer in Downing Street. Aaah, fantasies...

It kinda of shows how bad the UK political parties are though when Boris Johnson could realistically do a better job at running the country than David Cameron. Boris is really clever though, he's very much a power-to-the-people person and he acts like a fool at times to exploit the media for financial and political gain.

[QUOTE=Bobie;45619674]i think the only people boris has brought power to are city bankers[/QUOTE] Bankers and land lords. Holding off for as long as possible from building new housing in london to prices skyrocketed. Then when new houses were built they are built to let rather than being available to buy.
And so begins the end of the UK. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TkBMAHUkibY&list=FLU8nS5tD5l6jK3y4kGqWbuw&index=87[/media]
