People who don't want to believe Brexit is going badly want Johnson just to make them feel comfortable with their choice. This applies to selfish people like Jacob Rees Mogg right the way through to uncle Barry from Brentford who thought it sounded like a good idea and doesn't want to admit he was wrong. Whether Johnson himself believes it is irrelevant, if it helps his advancement he'll say and do absolutely anything. He's unquestionably the most impactful politician of our generation, for all the worse reasons

Elite should not be used to describe these narcissistic criminals. Privileged is all that they are. They are not the best of the best. They are the worst of the worst.
Remember when he allegedly recited the opening stanzas of Homer's Iliad when speaking to a Television interviewer. I know both scholars and Greeks who listened to that and were mystified. As was I, who also studied both Latin and Greek at my Secondary (Grammar) School. Apparently what he used was a sort of "Dum de dum de dum de dum" memory trick that they are taught to use at Eton. However age has dulled de Pfeffel's memory and what he though of as Homeric was actually gibberish..
He speaks Latin because, in his head, he is Caesar parading about with hedge cuttings round his head and wearing one of Carrie’s £500 interior designer bedsheets.
@@taffyman6089 he has an Oxbridge degree in Classics; it’s an indication of his irrelevance in today’s technology driven society but also of his knowledge of the extinct language and culture.
@@martincopeland8153 I studied Latin and later Roman Law to boot. I did not attend Oxbridge but I know the price of a loaf of bread and a pint of milk. I come from a humble background but punting the Classics etc is not so special at all. Classics is part of his 'Boris mask' to dupe people. Now he is being exposed he needs to find a new mask. People overlook the fact he can barely speak two coherent sentences in the King's English without help.
Add the mumbling too, his whole image and outward projection is an act to throw off his real borderline psychopathic amoral self that has to be repeatedly be told what he's doing is wrong
It's referred to as a mask and all narcissists use one to cover their real identity. I believe that Bozo and Trumpenstein's orange monster are likely both psychopaths, I don't think they're sociopaths because neither appear to actually value self preservation. A psychopath only fears getting caught because they fear being stopped acting on their psychopathy, nothing is more important to them, nothing including their own lives.
I wasn't taught that. I was taught that they are no better than i am. Just because of an accent or money. And i certainly do not think they can do no wrong. I think that is all they do. To us for their own gain.
You grew up in Scotland I believe Audry? It's very different, if you are brought up in England, even if your parents tell you they are no better than you society the BBC the schools, the magazines, the radio stations everything tells you implicitly that they are better than you.
Totally agree Audrey. Blue, red , yellow and green parties are out to dumb you down and take your rights. No one is better than you and you are not better than anyone. ALL MPs are there for power and control, if you hate one party or one MP only(ie conservatives and Boris) you have been divided and conquered.

The majority of people in this world who speak Latin are priests in Vatican City. Otherwise Latin is a dead language. It survives as dog Latin in the Romance languages.
I remember when Corbyn became leader of the labour party, he was castigated by the right wing press and the tories for wearing a tweed jacket, always tidy but that was just not good enough.
Yeh, Boris has never appealed to me. That comes from being around incredibly toxic liars & manipulators throughout my life. Boris is incredibly see-through when you know what to look for. My trauma has prevented me from being able to listen to the man for more than about a minute 🤭 I'm guessing people who like him have never encountered abusive personalities so much. Sam Bright is correct with everything he said.
I used to work for a non-violent psychopath, once the penny drops you can spot a narcissist instantly because you have learned to look past the gesticulations and other distractions, you don't even listen to words as your primary function. You look at eyes, facial expressions, ticks etc first. I spotted this with Trumpenstein's orange monster and Bozo the clown. They are both pretty extreme narcissists, they may even by categorised as either sociopaths or psychopaths.
"Anyway, I pulled him up a bit sharpish. I said ‘Oi John. I don’t want none of yer table-wine.' I said get down that cellar and sort me out a bottle of Vin Ordinaire!"
As for Latin, it's a language very heavily tied to English and used very commonly in the scientific community. It's actually very easy for English speakers to learn and understand. Which makes you question why this is not something covered in early education. None of this is new, it is an old method of misdirection. I try to explain the fun side of Latin, for example: Dermis, use in Taxidermy, Dermatology and so on and use familiar links to encourage people to figure out what the Latin word may mean. You, the reader, have probably figured this out already. It's a fun educational tool that acts similar to reverse engineering. So instead of just telling someone, which at least in my school days, was the norm. You encourage the brain to build connections between seemingly irrelevant concepts to understand new concepts. It's effectively teaching people how to think laterally. It is good fun and very useful for anyone to play about with. Latin is used for this due to topic, context and osmosis. However, yes, Boris is a twat.
It could be fun viewing it as a relic that has some historical interest but German, French and the various Viking dialects had a greater impact and these are all still spoken. Also Spanish and Italian have many of the roots of Latin but again are still spoken. My 10 year old is studying Spanish in primary school and gets much more out of it than if he had studied Latin. I view Latin and Greek as a means of identifying ‘them’ and ‘us’ and the sorts of schooling that was received. Curiously enough the same that the Romans themselves did as the upper classes all spoke Greek to separate themselves from the unwashed rabble that all spoke Latin.
It would have been helpful had he been able to speak simple English in coherent sentences without need to read from a prompt oir a sheet of paper. That was too much to ask from an alleged PM who had received the most expensive education money could buy in Britain. Incredible.
You're confusing language with etymology. You can study Sciences without taking Latin or Greek as a language, and still use those concepts usefully in modern English. It's a historical legacy, and as formal education was established in England by the Catholic Church, whose first scholars were of course Roman and Greek. I love etymology, but it's not always useful as language is dynamic, contextual, and always evolving. Johnson has a well-honed schtick, but he isn't a good advert for Education as being more than an accumulation, whose benefits can be thoroughly undermined by character deficits. Same with Liz Truss - both went to Oxford, both had middle class professions, and both screwed this country.
@@henghistbluetooth7882 That's interesting. So would you say that the use of an unintelligible language to the common people is a method of withholding information or understanding? I suspect you have played this game before.
I read in a Chinese media source couple years back about Boris Johnson’s Chinese phrases thrown around in the parliament. It turned out that he just said, in Chinese, hello, nice to see you. My God, that Chinese media subsequently insulted a buffoon by comparing Boris to it! I think that was utterly uncalled for! What did the buffoon do to deserve that?!
Yes couldn’t agree more .Just watched an old Taggart about a posh boys school in Scotland, it made me cringe , the arrogance of some of the “top Boys” and their perverted ways , the bullying , made me think of Cameron , Johnson and others at the top of Tory party . All the Latin as if it’s such a secret language , they are sick egoists .
Subservience to aristocracy isn't instinctive, it's educated. The class system works to keep the working class in its place and happy to be there, overlooked by our 'betters'. The current disastrous state of the country shows what nonsense it all is.
Boris uses the same tactics as Les Kellett the very popular 1960s wrestler. And bears more than a passing resemblance to him right down to the hair style.😃
Prior to the 2019 election and when Johnson was doing his Uk tour he dined at the Star Inn, Kilham, my niece was working there at the time and a few weeks later at a family gathering she and her side of the family were eulogising about him and how nice he was and what a good leader he’ll be. I said contrary to their opinion and said he’ll do more damage to the UK than you can imagine. I was shot down and laughed at🤔 That side of the family are involved in farming and haulage and their opinion has changed a little since then
The fact that you wrote that tells you everything about your education standard. He studied classics, which is only related to law in terms of the use of Latin. And as for 'confusing people with Latin', yes I'm sure it might confuse some lowest-common-denominator idiot - but that isn't the main problem with politicians and media people like Boris
@@jd_99 post hoc ergo propter hoc. Just because one knows how to do something, doesn't mean they need to show it off. I will bet my education beats yours. Because you didn't even understand the point I was making.
People like Johnson don't study their Degree, they buy it. The amount of MPs that claim to have studied History, and then spout a load of outright guff, that actual proves that they don't know the subject in the slightest. A History Degree is much harder if you don't buy one.
Yep. I noted that. Especially since, only a few days ago, I watched Ash Sarkar interview with journalist Michael Beard, writer of Sad Little Men. All about life at boarding school and the psychological damage it does to kids. He believes it explains why the Tory government has very little empathy. The country's being run by unloved children in adult bodies.
Johnson styles that appearance. I remember david Cameron having a huge cheer for telling Corbyn to wear a tie. They’re all an embarrassment though, baying and crying over each other when they’re speaking
Bozo scrumples his freshly pressed clothes and messes his hair up before he appears. It's all part of his narcissist's mask to hide his real identity because, like all narcissists, he knows he is rotten to the core and that's the way he likes it. The way he behaved during covid makes me think he may be more extreme than a narcissist, he might be a psychopath.
The only thing that fascinates me about him is how, despite his bigoted and outright racist beliefs, he has a sort of magnetic attraction for those who found themselves strung up by his cult. A line from the documentary "The Dark Charisma of Adolf Hitler," provides an insight into how manipulative people spin their Web of lies to intice people into supporting them. "Charisma doesn't exist on its own in anyone. It exists only in an interaction between an individual and an audience, an individual like Hitler, who's telling the audience what they wanted to hear," That said, I often compared Johnson to Mussolini than Hitler, like the former Italian dictator, Johnson has been all about bluster and bluff, whipping up his supporters into a frenzy, only for his wrongdoing to eventually catch up with him and those who used to support him eventually forced him out. The only difference i suppose is that Johnson is still alive after being forced out, whereas Mussolini wasn't (he and his mistress, Clara Petacci, were shot and killed by Italian Partisans near Lake Como and their bodies were taken to Milan, where the local population expressed their anger at the corpses for what had been allowed to happen to their country)
Let's remember that an even less "scruffy" looking man got torn to shreds in the press in part for his appearance. Jeremy Corbyn: "Scruffy" Boris Johnson: "Characterful"
The man's personality and public service record is a disgrace, we can make 50 videos about this but despite that and being scolded in Commons select committees he is still in public office and collecting public money for current and past roles
Think he is mostly called Boris because it's a slightly funny word to say and rare enough as a name that it's all the information you need to know who someone is talking about. If he was called John Wentworth people would call him Wentworth.
He involved inside a crime already, Nw11 8nh , the building being burned with people inside it, and he makes people with justice being involved inside such horrible crime. And they still want hide this crime.
3:34 When I think of Boris Johnson, what springs to mind immediately is the second syllable of the indicative present third person plural of the verb vincare (to conquer).
Anyone who has ever watched the 80s "Brideshead Revisited" TV serialized novel adaptation can see that Mogg, Bojo, Gove, Sunak, May, etc may well model their poshness on this TV series in order to fit in among members of the ruling class and Tory elites. It's called Southern English snobbery or Middle class Aspiration!

Rupert Murdoch... Can you please do more on him.
Prior to the 2019 election and when Johnson was doing his Uk tour he dined at the Star Inn, Kilham, my niece was working there at the time and a few weeks later at a family gathering she and her side of the family were eulogising about him and how nice he was and what a good leader he’ll be. I said contrary to their opinion and said he’ll do more damage to the UK than you can imagine. I was shot down and laughed at🤔 That side of the family are involved in farming and haulage and their opinion has changed a little since then
At least they aren't blaming things on sunspots or whatever.
The fact that he even knows Latin, but doesn't have a law degree, tells you everything you need to know about Boris.
The fact that you wrote that tells you everything about your education standard.
He studied classics, which is only related to law in terms of the use of Latin.
And as for 'confusing people with Latin', yes I'm sure it might confuse some lowest-common-denominator idiot - but that isn't the main problem with politicians and media people like Boris
@@jd_99 post hoc ergo propter hoc.
Just because one knows how to do something, doesn't mean they need to show it off.
I will bet my education beats yours. Because you didn't even understand the point I was making.
@@bipolarminddroppings do you measure people on how you rate their education?
@@colenewton5183 he started it...
And yes. How well educated someone is tells you a lot about them.
People like Johnson don't study their Degree, they buy it. The amount of MPs that claim to have studied History, and then spout a load of outright guff, that actual proves that they don't know the subject in the slightest. A History Degree is much harder if you don't buy one.
Spot on - whole clown act
What's the difference between high spirits and hooliganism?
About a hundred grand.
‘feeling of deep self-loathing’ …
Did anyone else catch that ?
What did he mean ?
I bet that i loathe him more than he does
Yep. I noted that. Especially since, only a few days ago, I watched Ash Sarkar interview with journalist Michael Beard, writer of Sad Little Men. All about life at boarding school and the psychological damage it does to kids. He believes it explains why the Tory government has very little empathy. The country's being run by unloved children in adult bodies.
The fear
He is right up there with Edward 2nd on popularity in Scotland
And William the Turd in Catholic Nordern Oirelond. All a bunch of oranges.
😋
I feel Edward II is probably fairly popular in Scotland, it was Edward I and III who eviscerated the Scots.
Johnson styles that appearance. I remember david Cameron having a huge cheer for telling Corbyn to wear a tie. They’re all an embarrassment though, baying and crying over each other when they’re speaking
I find it really hard to take this guy seriously
That's all true, but who is his hairdresser, he's a magician with a knife and fork.
Bozo scrumples his freshly pressed clothes and messes his hair up before he appears. It's all part of his narcissist's mask to hide his real identity because, like all narcissists, he knows he is rotten to the core and that's the way he likes it. The way he behaved during covid makes me think he may be more extreme than a narcissist, he might be a psychopath.
The only thing that fascinates me about him is how, despite his bigoted and outright racist beliefs, he has a sort of magnetic attraction for those who found themselves strung up by his cult. A line from the documentary "The Dark Charisma of Adolf Hitler," provides an insight into how manipulative people spin their Web of lies to intice people into supporting them.
"Charisma doesn't exist on its own in anyone. It exists only in an interaction between an individual and an audience, an individual like Hitler, who's telling the audience what they wanted to hear,"
That said, I often compared Johnson to Mussolini than Hitler, like the former Italian dictator, Johnson has been all about bluster and bluff, whipping up his supporters into a frenzy, only for his wrongdoing to eventually catch up with him and those who used to support him eventually forced him out. The only difference i suppose is that Johnson is still alive after being forced out, whereas Mussolini wasn't (he and his mistress, Clara Petacci, were shot and killed by Italian Partisans near Lake Como and their bodies were taken to Milan, where the local population expressed their anger at the corpses for what had been allowed to happen to their country)
It’s not even his first name. The lies run so deep that very few people even realise he’s called Alex, not Boris.
Alexander Kemal Holsten-Pilsner DerPiffle.
Regarding the Blonde fool Johnson looking a mess- Michael Foot WAS of course torn apart by the press for his image ...
Talking in Latin is the same as having a Chinese script tattoo. It translates as “ I’m a total dick”
guys, who does your audio production? and follow up question, why?
both Johnson and Rees-Mogg remind me of Del boy is trying to impress people with his hooky French, funny in his case, pathetic in theirs
Have neither of you been invited to Latin themed charity events? Seriously? I can't open my emails without constantly receiving invites myself!😉
The last one I went to involved wearing bedsheet togas, lots of booze and nice young ladies dispensing charity
@@petergaskin1811 'Toe-ga!......toe-ga....toe-ga!......Toe-GAA!!'.......(National Lampoons Animal House😉😂)
Bojo only confuses because he gets his latin phrases wrong. No surprises there.
Learn about dark driad personality traits and disorders like narcissism and it explains the behaviours of tory mps perfectly
Especially when in the case of both de Pfeffel and Trump that narcissism descends into a psychotic episode.
I don't see what tree spirits have to do with anything.
Let's remember that an even less "scruffy" looking man got torn to shreds in the press in part for his appearance.
Jeremy Corbyn: "Scruffy"
Boris Johnson: "Characterful"
A complete waste of an expensive education.
Pity his tutors couldn't have done a lot more to bring him into line.
I'd like to point out that your dress comment is well observed. The press made Michael Foot unelectable because he wore a coat.
Private, elite education is never shown for what it really is.
He is boring. Playing the jester
Boris in power is akin to when an old lady dies and her Will leaves the house to her cat
Main linguistic distraction is the use of ‘like’ 🙄
The man's personality and public service record is a disgrace, we can make 50 videos about this but despite that and being scolded in Commons select committees he is still in public office and collecting public money for current and past roles
hhahahah I've done this at my local to drunken strangers :DDDDDDDDDDDD
Think he is mostly called Boris because it's a slightly funny word to say and rare enough as a name that it's all the information you need to know who someone is talking about. If he was called John Wentworth people would call him Wentworth.
Politics Joe should be compulsory watching in state school sixth forms.
I hope the uk will wake up one day
Me too my friend
Most definitely. Things have got to change. There is so much discontent. Let's hope it's not replaced by apathy which is what usually happens
He involved inside a crime already, Nw11 8nh , the building being burned with people inside it, and he makes people with justice being involved inside such horrible crime. And they still want hide this crime.
He speaks with forked tongue.
Just shout: _ad montem_ at the old crook. And when he does, call in the artillery strike.
"He speaks in Latin..."
That wasn't his approach when I had him cornered in a car outside an Italian resteraunt.
Strange how you never ever see a Poor Tory MP yet every single one off them have Mansions lets be honest here they have never worked hard for them
Johnson confuses himself everytime he opens his mouth.
He's the unfunniest clown but some people find that charming
What is wrong with brits?
Let's see him smirk when we clawback all the money he spaffed
Echo on this channel is deafening
Well, it might confuse you dear boy.
3:34 When I think of Boris Johnson, what springs to mind immediately is the second syllable of the indicative present third person plural of the verb vincare (to conquer).
I was disappointed when he recovered from Covid.
blzebub2
That's if he ever had COVID in the first place.
That's the same woman that thinks men should be afraid of women, extreme views
No, not Boris or BoJo - always refer to him as "The Johnson" whenever possible.
It’s Jeeves and Wooster on steroids.
Yes the first name thing was ridiculous. Nicola Sturgeon was always referred to as simply "Sturgeon" !!
Anyone who has ever watched the 80s "Brideshead Revisited" TV serialized novel adaptation can see that Mogg, Bojo, Gove, Sunak, May, etc may well model their poshness on this TV series in order to fit in among members of the ruling class and Tory elites. It's called Southern English snobbery or Middle class Aspiration!
I'm 76 years old and that leg stirs my heart. Just my heart ofcourse. I can hardly lift my leg.
Aah, but those boots.....
Aye, boots an all, That poor lad cannot look down, he can only look at tbe ceiling or about a foot above her head. He won't half give the wife or tbe G/F r the both the works after that chat with her...poor lad.
DumBo Johnson not only appointed the son of a Russian KGB agent to the House of Lords, but I've only just discovered that he spent £2.9 million on a briefing room in 10 Downing Street and gave the contract to a Russian company???
dodgy little git , thats nigh on treason
Regardless of party ...
... Nullius in verba 😂
Spelling mistake in intro
Criminals noting more or nothing less
I'm not interested in his past, only his future: wearing handcuffs and prison fatigues.
The aristocracy who talk "well" who are "well" educated ...the irony is palpable.
