He was for some reason populae as London mayor and believes that's still true but also for everywhere else. He was kept away from campaigning up north because he's so unpopular here

The reason he was popular as London mayor was he carefully cultivated an as un-Tory public persona as possible.

The reason he decided (despite being previously passionately pro-EU) to head up the Leave campaign was he believed a) it would lose narrowly leading to a fracture in the party and b) would help erase the fact he was nice to foreigners from the collective memory of the Shires Brigade who hold the power in the party, positioning him perfectly as a challenger to Cameron.

Now he's championing hard Brexit because he believes that it won't happen and when we eventually dribble into some lovely EFTA-type deal that is the worst of all worlds (apart from for the money men of course) he'll be able to challenge May.

Basically this entire country is being flushed completely down the shithole so someone with the middle name "de Pfeffel" can get his hands on the nuclear launch codes.

Boris Johnson is the top choice for the next Tory leader among Conservative party members, according to a new poll.

According to the survey, Mr Johnson has the backing of 23 per cent of activists, ahead of Ms Davidson on 19 per cent and Eurosceptic backbencher Jacob Rees-Mogg on 17 per cent

Members were also positive about his performance, with 69 per cent of them saying he is doing a good job.

Why does Boris Johnson still have a job and why was he made foreign secretary to begin with

also a standard british politics thing is to resign onto a cushy parachute and shift the blame to whoever's left, which may prevented by making boris secretary

it's a lovely move on a competence level but some a+ spite

I live near there as well. Someone took the 'H' off the 'Shore head Café' sign to make it 'Sore head Café'. It's the closest thing to entertainment there, I think.
