By Binoy Kampmark, published 25/7/2019The new British PM and Tory leader is a piece of truly befuddled work, one who still manages to play the card of the electable clown.

Once again, the 'experts' were wrong: the favorite never gets elected they said smugly. Boris romped in. Now he can deliver the Brits from the Evil Empire, the EU.

Boris has sacked most of his inherited cabinet, ridding himself and Britain of the dud May's hangers-on - those who didn't believe in the democracy of the Brexit referendum. Good start. Long live Boris.

Paul Hogan predicted the rise of Boris when Hoges was floggin packs of Winfields for the princely sum of 40 cents a pack! (in the 1970s).

but, I don't get what article is about.
after all, Britain does face difficult questions in line with legitimate democratic demands.
Britain does have the added difficulty of dealing with both the EU and Ireland. Hence, I don't believe that anyone can offer 100% consistent arguments to two vastly different issues for the UK.
And an overwhelming majority of the party voted for Johnson.
There are real reasons why the majority of UK people voted to leave the EU, and I don't think the reasons can be lampooned as crude examples of racism or anything else.
I remember expressing concerns about China around 2010 at a political studies conference in Sydney, and of course, the halfwit immediately lampooned me as some kind of racist because no one ever has the right to question do gooders who love to tell you how the world should be whereas very often these supposed political experts don't really have a clue.
