#1 At least Johnson came home, and cut his holiday short, unlike other so called 'leaders' we all know and (don't)love.....

#4 "I also want to say to the people who have been involved in instigating these riots and those who have been robbing and stealing that they will be caught, they will be apprehended and they will face punishments they will bitterly regret,"

How's he gonna keep that promise?

Maybe the folks in London are unaccustomed to this sort of thing. But the only way to stop looters is to shoot the bastards in the streets. Issue shotguns to the cops, impose a curfew and shoot the violators. This has gone on for far too long. Put a chill into their spirits at the outset and cut the rioting short. Don't make any apologies and don't make any promises you can't keep.

#6 Mr. Johnson, when are you going to authorize deployment of the vomit gas? Right before the mobs get to your home?

#8 Londoners voted for this worthless fucktard. You reap what you sow people. Learn from this and never vote for someone who disregards your liberty. Because without liberty, you will never have safety or any other thing that is most important to you.

Liberty is the word which means taking care of your interests without imposing on others. This is something you can never compromise.
