Don't think so. Muggings do happen in London and as Stretch says it is in his character to do soemthing like this.

Ugh, why couldn't they have killed him?

You think that Mr Cameron hugged some hoodies and set them up to it?

I guess it's a well done Mr Johnson for intervening.

Didn't he make some weird statement on BBC News comparing eggs or something? It was on HIGNFY.

Yess.. "Yeah well, you know if we had some ham we have ham and eggs if we had any eggs" and that was Boris' response, quoted verbatim, when he was asked if the Tories promise on a Lisbon Treaty referendum was pointless as the Czechs and Poles were always going to ratify the treaty before the election... What a great response.

The guy is clearly an exceptional actor, I don't like his politics, but I love him as a character.

Nice one Boris, the EU president’s job should go to you.

DampCat · 4 Nov 2009 at 08:57

I genuinely love Boris. Honestly. I'm proud of him in a strange way. Such a bumbling buffoon.

Tremendous stuff. Well done BoJo.

He is a breath of fresh air in the world of politics.

I laughed when he tripped on a step while giving a speech when he won as mayor and said it was a last minute Labour trap that had been set.

Legend.

Fenris · 4 Nov 2009 at 09:30

If only more people in Politics were like him.

Freefaller · 4 Nov 2009 at 09:51

Heard it on LBC yesterday, fantastic story! Go BOJO!

that man is a genuine 100% legend!
I wish we had more like him in the UK. I'd vote them in EVERY TIME!

That was hilarious.

I always quote that piece of footage as Boris 'starting as he means to go on."

Burnsy2023 · 4 Nov 2009 at 10:43

I could never vote for him, but he seems a pretty likeable character.

Luseac · 4 Nov 2009 at 10:51

Should have done that to them tbh.

Boris is awesome.
