Regarding Boris BoGo McRhubarb Toff...
I think... I think I finally get him. Politics is a game to him. It is a hobby. It is fun and games and banter. He loves it. He is a Tory as he was born a Tory and had Tory drummed into him via posh schooling.
It's worth point out that all of our MPs come from the same schools, except UKIP who are mostly people who never went to higher education. If this were the case then every MP would be BOGO BORIS and the world would be a better place
Fuck knows he is entertaining and likeable, and for some people, that is enough, regardless of his politics as people just don't give a shit about politics when Boris is RAHRAHRAHing about the place.
Also he gets infrastructure spending, and manages to make infrastructure spending sexy
"The nations, not so blest as thee,
Must in their turn, to tyrants fall,
Must in their turn, to tyrants fall,
While thou shalt flourish, shalt flourish great and free,
The dread and envy of them all.
Rule Britannia!
Britannia rule the waves.
Britons never, never, never shall be slaves."
I suppose that song explains the British mindset quite clearly. Nowadays things have changed and Google and CocaCola rule the seas, and I am certain in the future to come we'll have to fight for our liberties that have been eroded through sheer complacency once more, but while other nations must in their turn to tyrants fall by backdoor and sneaky minister all, our little ditch flooded as it is into its channel lets us do what we wish - Britons never, never, never shall be slaves. There is also a little verse on the end about how every time we are struck by foreign strokes we somehow have always managed to rise stronger and higher, which I just chalk down to Britons needing projects to rally around as the Germans do. Give me the choice between being the passenger of a cruise liner or command of a ship of the line, I will sacrifice comfort and luxury for my own steering wheel and charter. Amusingly due to a quirk in assignment rules in regards to having to have all Navy personnel assigned to a ship, Navy personnel assigned to Naval bases are assigned to "concrete frigates" and those sent away from Navy establishments are assigned to HMS Victory, the oldest warship in commission in the world - having served under Admiral Nelson in crushing Napoleon Bonaparte's fleet at the battle of Trafalgar.
