I'm amazed that anyone has to be honest. I'd never really paid much attention to him as mayor of London but it doesn't take very long to realise he is in it for himself at every level. The thing that does surprise me is the trajectory of the Tory party with him - they realised that they had serious vote issues with Farage on the scene, an obvious showman and bullshitter, but instead of dealing with him on a political level they went toe to toe with him on a showman level and ended up here. The obvious thought process around Boris was 'give him enough rope', but it appears that he has used that rope to lasso the whole party to him and get the better of them all.
