I think he has learned a quite different lesson: It literally pays to be outrageous. Okay, he’s not PM anymore (he never liked the job, only the power and status), but being a high profile right wing populist is a career of sorts.

Might as well have a referendum on whether Johnson should ever be heard from again.

I guarantee you if you told every person on social media who publically professes devotion to Johnson you'd give them a million quid or die if they could say what ECHR stands for, they'd all die

No chance he’ll know what a square root is! But we’ve learnt he wouldn’t have any interest in what the outcome meant - just a referendum as a glorified debating society

He's an attention seeking narcissist who couldn't care less about any one else.

Surely he can call for whatever he likes, but isn't he just a citizen? So is same as me calling for something? Or any of us... so what? Stop giving him airtime!
