Anger at scruffy Boris!

[Gromit]

Thousands of people have contacted the Daily Mail website to complain about bubbling toff Boris Johnson's scruffy appearance at the Olympic closing ceremony.

Does it matter as long as he does his best?

london is full of comedians houses of parliment ect, so why not have a clown for a mayor.

Gromit - you quoting the Daily mail , thought I'd never see the day.

In answer to your question, no it does not matter. He'll get ridiculed just like Mr Foot but its what they that counts.

he should be ridiculed, he is the lovechild of boris becker

Johnson is 3 years older than Becker.

Gromit. Are you AOG in disguise?

I never been so insulted. You looney left PC gone mad commie idiot.

Looked alright to me, ok his hair always been a bit of hedge backwards affair. It seems thousands of people should be getting a life! Gromit quoting the mail, now that's a big news story!

[R1Geezer]

did you know that Boris's Great(x8) grandfather was George II ?

[anotheoldgit]

He is also part Muslim (Turkish) and part German.

But let's not hold that against him, he is his own man and obviously could not care less about his Media image, and why should he.

Glad to see I have been mentioned in dispatches once again. It does my ego a power of good knowing that I am constantly in the Left's thoughts.

No Steve.5 Gromit and I are not the same person. I know that Gromit would love to be as popular, but try as he may, I'm afraid he doesn't come close.

Sometimes, AOG, it's hard to tell if you're joking.

Here for example:

"he is his own man and obviously could not care less about his Media image"

We'll overlook the affected floppy-haired styling of this magazine-editing, column-writing, quiz-show-hosting, 'gosh, crumbs' bumbling socialite television personality. Yes. Good.

It seems that thousands where a few days behind my earlier post, regarding Britain's 'Tacky' Olympics handover ceremony, but they got there in the end.

One or two on this site must now have egg on their faces.

for goodness' sake, aog, you CANNOT be part-Muslim. Racial identity can be inherited. Religion cannot.

Thats just Boris, pity he doesn't smarten himself up a bit more, but I quite like him, scruffy attire, intelligent brain. I watched him on Who Do You Think You Are! Apparently he is the great great grandson eight times removed of George 11. Tell that to the Chinese and they will all want to come for the 2012 Olympics just to get his autograph!

[Gromit]

Thank you all for your answers, especially those avid Television viewers of 'Who do you think you are' and those who think your religion is passed down in your genes. Bless.

[anotheoldgit]

Religion was not passed down??????

Ask any Muslim (not converted to islam muslim) you know, what was the religion their Father, Grandfather, Great Grandfather, Great-Great Grandfather............
