brussels believe that Brexit is nationalistic. I agree with them.

He was appointed director of the No 10 policy unit by Cameron in 2013, not in 2018 as stated

It’s never edifying when family rows go public, but this one is a national embarrassment.

I prefer this Boris Johnson sequel to it's predecessor.

. Yuge! I'm thinking MP JoJohnson was probably afraid of the dreaded LondonAcidAttacks and KnifeAttacks, and wanted to LeaveLondon BEFORE his luck ran out SadiqKhan knows about the AcidAttacks! sadiqkhan MayorofLondon London Londonistan

It’s getting so bad that Larry the Number Ten cat has asked to be relocated to an animal sanctuary

When ship is sinking all the rats abandon ship.

His wife is a journalist. I can't imagine she'll be too thrilled with the antics of her brother-in-law.

Very sad, their Dad wanted a son to fulfil his own ambition to become PM. Think he backed the wrong son, as Boris won’t last long.

Rat, Sold out His Country + Family. JoJohnsonUK Typical Younger Brother syndrome.

This happens when you prefer “Dominic Cummings' advice to that of your family!!!

Better looking than his brother too.

PRoberts666 Standing down to spend less time with his family- that must be a first! LiarJohnson

The JoJo brain-drain shown leaving the SloMo derailment of the BoJo Brexit insane-train

A real patriot!

Aw jeez, has he given up the snooker too? Joejohnson Snookered

Well he also said 'family loyalty', that has nothing to do with being an mp, if politicians think it does, they're in the wrong job.

Boris Johnson, has chosen himself over his party, over his country and now over his own family.

Quick, wheres the jungle one?

Coward

Rats and ships

Balliol: Jo and Boris Ghislaine Maxwell C Dick Damian Green ?

Not to stamp on a story then, we are all happy then. Thought for a moment it might be to stop something coming out or he was told to go before it did. Balliol ?

Yo te propongo una velada romántica..
