More quotes by Boris Johnson

Boris Johnson

Boris Johnson
I'm no communist.I'm a tax cutting Conservative. But I want a capitalism that is fairer to forgotten people.
Boris Johnson
I dont see why people are so snooty about Channel Five. It has some respectable documentaries about the Second World War. It also devotes considerable airtime to investigations into lap-dancing, and other related and vital subjects
Boris Johnson
Humanity would have plunged into a new dark age of absolutely frightening and appalling characteristics without Churchill.
Boris Johnson
My policy on cake is pro having it and pro eating it.
Boris Johnson
You are part of our Great British family.
Boris Johnson
I have as much chance of becoming Prime Minister as of being decapitated by a frisbee or of finding Elvis.
Boris Johnson
He is like some sherry-crazed old dowager who has lost the family silver at roulette, and who now decides to double up by betting the house as well.
Boris Johnson
I love swimming in rivers, and well remember once jumping in at Chiswick.
Boris Johnson
