Why can't you answer a simple question about what would make Boris Johnson a good mayor?

Americans cannot say "toilet" for the same reason the Irish cannot say "rest room".

Either way, we understand each other, don't we?

My wife is american and she calls it the bathroom. But why should it matter at all what name is used, lavatory, s'house, carzy, bog, crapper, dunnie, loo, heads. One thing is certain, we all know when we need to pay a visit,

Are you even old enough to be on this site?

Why won't you answer the question? It's already obvious you've got the mental prowess of a slug, but have a go anyway, you might learn something through trying.

So you are still resorting to abuse in a desperate attempt to try and draw me into a stupid argument with you. Boris won kid, GET OVER IT, get on with your life. In time, with luck, you may develop an understanding of the world and grow to understand these things but for now just keep taking your medication and try to keep your hands out of your pockets.

You started with the abuse, moron. All I'm doing is asking you to answer a simple question. Instead of doing so you're running around throwing your toys out and behaving like a child. I'm not in the slightest bit concerned that Boris is in power, I'm concerned about why you champion him with no understanding of politics whatsoever. Will you answer the question and if not, why not?
