Alexandole Boris de Pfeffel Johnson

Thing is, Johnson had always been the same. I don’t actually feel that much resentment to him, all he did was act entirely as I expected him to. I’m far more annoyed at his enablers.

If we ever get back to putting our faith in experts properly again and people are able to admit their own culpability at even a small level, it’s going to be a very interesting case study across the board as to why and how we as an electorate allowed someone like him to end up being the prime minister of our country. Think we’re quite a way away from that yet though.

I'll never again say of Germans who voted for Hitler that it couldn't happen here.

I agree, but are we supposing that the pot from where he gained power is somehow different?
Perhaps all politicians gain power with his traits maybe the small circle that choose any PM are so selfish they want puppets not leaders?

I'm sure all people at the pinnacle of their career will have some hubris but I get the impression particularly at PM Question time that most MPs get their education in how to lie anyway.

Tbf to them, Hitler never won a parliamentary majority and they voted for von Hindenburg over him as president by quite a convincing margin. It was a flawed system of safeguards and a perfect storm of events including the Reichstag fire and von Hindenburg's death that enabled the evil short-arse **** to launch a successful bloodless coup.
