Boris Johnson’s Build Back Better puns will have you cringing into next week
The Conservative Party Conference ends today, and what a conference it’s been.
We’ve seen Dominic Raab promise to torch overhaul the Human Rights Act, Priti Patel getting a huge cheer for promising to set the armed forces on asylum seekers in the English Channel and Sajid Javid saying that sick relatives are your problem, mate – though I’m paraphrasing a little.
As all this went on, Boris Johnson found time in his busy schedule of avoiding GMB to make three extremely cringeworthy videos, riffing on the conference slogan – Build back better.
