i can't stand the blood

0:02

he's a crafty guy he's like a very

0:03

sinister clown put it this way if i had

0:06

a friend like that he wouldn't be a

0:08

friend get him out i could never vote

0:11

conservative while he was prime minister

0:14

his hair is a messy doesn't even look

0:16

presentable and professional it's the

0:19

end for boris

0:21

hello welcome to easy english boris

0:24

johnson is the leader of the

0:25

conservative party and is also the

0:27

current uk prime minister recently boris

0:30

johnson has been headline news all

0:32

across the world so it makes sense to

0:34

ask the british people what do they

0:36

think about boris johnson disclaimer

0:39

these interviews are going to be very

0:40

representative of brighton a lead

0:43

council although i expect most of the

0:45

answers to be very one-sided i'd like to

0:47

hear if there are any positives to

0:49

having boris johnson as the uk leader

0:51

don't forget to like and subscribe

0:54

here we go what is your general opinion

0:56

on boris boris johnson is a chancellor

0:59

who's only ever been interested in his

1:01

own personal advancement as evidenced by

1:04

when he had two versions of brexit yes

1:07

no and he chose yes

1:09

solely because he thought that would

1:10

enhance his own personal ambition

1:13

i don't know much about politics but

1:16

yeah

1:17

um i definitely don't like him

1:19

my feelings on boris is that he's he's

1:21

he's a bad man yeah this has been i've

1:24

always felt like that really i don't

1:26

really trust politicians full stop

1:28

i think uh

1:30

he doesn't do the

1:32

country any good in the way it's

1:33

projected throughout the world

1:36

uh i believe he

1:38

likes something out to this a politician

1:40

out of the 18th century

1:42

that uh

1:43

the elite matters but nobody else

1:46

and uh he's a bit of a billy bunter type

1:49

leader which

1:51

i don't think the rest of the world

1:52

takes seriously

1:54

i've got them all now whenever a

1:56

conservative comes on i think oh my god

1:58

there we go again another lie even if

2:00

they're not telling me a lie and that's

2:02

because of bojo because he's constantly

2:04

lied get him out

2:06

you're not a fan at all though

2:08

i didn't mind him in the beginning he

2:10

was quite fun he was quite funny i was

2:12

going to say there was an element of her

2:14

around there and i thought oh here we go

2:16

something different in fact i liked him

2:17

as the mayor of london i haven't always

2:19

hated him but i really really do not

2:22

like him now and i want him to go

2:24

because i think he's very harmful yes he

2:26

does a few good things but i'm sure many

2:29

others would do the same let's start

2:30

just generally speaking what are your

2:32

thoughts on boris

2:34

um well before he became prime minister

2:38

he was a

2:39

unelected

2:41

um

2:43

opportunistic lying

2:46

um philandering buffoon and then people

2:48

voted for him and he became an elected

2:52

lying

2:53

opportunistic philandering buffoon

2:55

but i don't like him he's spent the last

2:59

five years or so flying by the seat of

3:01

his pants using his charm to get out of

3:04

every situation that he creates for

3:06

himself and it's not going to last he'll

3:09

be gone by friday

3:10

and how about you what are your thoughts

3:12

on boris

3:13

so i don't really have any confidence in

3:16

him as a leader of our country um i

3:19

don't trust the man i don't trust a word

3:21

he says

3:22

um

3:24

i

3:26

look at someone like just cinder hearn

3:29

in new zealand and i have the greatest

3:32

respect for her as a prime minister i

3:34

think that the way she handled lockdown

3:37

in new zealand

3:38

the way she speaks the way she presents

3:40

herself is just

3:42

very professional um very very

3:46

um

3:47

i i would put my faith and trust in her

3:50

and feel that she's doing the best for

3:52

the nation whereas i feel that

3:54

bojo just does what suits him

3:57

and he doesn't seem to put a lot of

3:58

thought into his actions he just seems

4:00

to

4:01

change like the wind and

4:05

is quite shambolic really with his

4:07

decisions and policies

to start your first lesson and get ten

5:14

because i i know that obviously i'm

5:16

interviewing in brighton so i'm really

5:17

probably going to get one answer so i'd

5:19

like to try and have some sort of

5:20

devil's advocate role in this and i just

5:23

want to see if there is any positivity

5:25

that came out comes out of him being in

5:27

charge oh being in charge i mean there

5:29

are some positive attributes to boris in

5:31

that he can be very entertaining but

5:33

then you don't want an entertainer is

5:34

your prime minister no boris johnson in

5:36

charge is only a one-way street to doom

5:39

despondency despair and collapse

5:43

okay

5:45

is there a positive

5:47

like let's say you may not agree with

5:49

brexit or you agree with it but has he

5:51

handled it well has he delivered

5:52

anything

5:54

i think that he just blasted his way

5:56

through brexit

5:58

i don't think he had any direction

6:01

his main purpose was to leave the eu

6:05

and think about it later

6:07

that's my view yeah

6:09

let's try and like make a positive

6:11

comment is there anything you say he's

6:13

done like with the kovid pandemic

6:15

forgetting the parties and all this the

6:17

way that he's sort of helped guide the

6:19

uk through the pandemic is that

6:21

would you say he's done that quite well

6:23

or is anything you think is managed

6:24

quite well i don't think he's managed it

6:26

well at all he's taken all the glory

6:29

that the health service have put in

6:32

um and the

6:33

and the scientists

6:34

and it's as if you know look what i did

6:36

i saved the whole country but

6:39

he's he's lying again he's grabbing

6:42

somebody else's credit again

6:44

is there a positive side to him at all

6:46

like maybe has he handled something well

6:48

do you think even if you've not agreed

6:50

with

6:51

say

6:52

i don't see anything positive in him but

6:53

i can understand how he's

6:56

he's quite manipulative he's good at

6:58

manipulating people yeah is that key but

7:01

that that i wouldn't say that as a good

7:02

character trait myself yeah i don't

7:05

think a manipulative world leader yeah

7:07

yeah

7:08

yeah he's he's he's he's a sociopath

7:10

right a very clever one but then do you

7:12

need to be a bit of a sociopath to be a

7:14

prime minister do you think

7:17

possibly but i think you've got to

7:19

you've got to have control over that

7:20

sort of thing right i think um you know

7:23

you can't let

7:26

being a being a prime minister i think

7:27

that you can't be egocentric all the

7:29

time i mean surely the idea is that you

7:31

uh that you're there to serve the

7:32

country is there something which you

7:33

could say that he's done handled quite

7:35

well or

7:36

is there certain things that you think

7:38

he's actually quite good as a leader

7:40

unfortunately i didn't want brexit so

7:42

you know he probably delivered brexit

7:43

but i didn't want to anyway

7:45

so but maybe you think he did it quite

7:47

well if you would have gone

7:49

don't actually because he ended up lying

7:50

about that as well you know but at least

7:52

he delivered it but he lied about it he

7:55

lied about what people could expect from

7:57

it and people in business have suffered

7:59

an enormous amount from it yeah i don't

8:01

know of anybody yet who's benefited but

8:03

you know i'm willing to hear

8:05

of success stories because of medicine

8:08

he's delivered it

8:09

whether or not

8:11

i don't think it's a plus okay so let's

8:13

think of a plus i like the idea of um

8:17

leveling up north south i really like

8:19

that idea because i'm not from the south

8:21

myself however i love it down here and i

8:24

wouldn't go back up north again but it's

8:26

a great idea to try and level up those

8:28

two areas but it's inevitable as a

8:30

result of that that people around here

8:32

are going to think way with all our

8:34

money going you know why is it going all

8:36

up north

8:37

what your sort of opinions on there's

8:38

like word that maybe his time is up

8:42

is this a is this a positive thing right

8:44

now do we need to be

8:46

leaderless well

8:47

yeah we've been leaders for the last how

8:50

many years throughout

8:52

i feel that we've been completely

8:53

leaderless we haven't had a lead that's

8:56

the trouble we had a blustering fall if

8:58

he goes if he stays is there a positive

9:01

do we have something to look forward to

9:03

that's the difficulty who comes in

9:06

who now i mean i haven't got a clue i

9:10

haven't got a clue because i don't want

9:13

any of his fogies and then you think

9:15

what about some of the previous lots the

9:17

ones that stood against him yeah

9:18

[Music]

9:20

the previous health secretary but god

9:22

what a mess he made of the national

9:24

health service so you know

9:26

i haven't got a clue we need somebody

9:28

else i don't know enough about list

9:30

trusts

9:31

um

9:32

i don't know enough about any of them

9:33

really who knows but maybe anyone's

9:35

better than him would you say

9:37

or are we counting our chickens no i do

9:40

think

9:41

um there must be better than him there

9:43

must be better than him because

9:44

integrity and not lying is extremely

9:47

important otherwise you lose all respect

9:49

for anything that anybody expects you to

9:51

do it's he's had his day with me i have

9:54

no respect for him at all anymore thanks
