They’re saying Booris Johnson.
But since he’s the U.K.'s Donald Trump, that was probably the BIGGEST and Best welome any PRIME Minister has ever received EVER?
Did I do that right?
Yeah, you did it so good. It was unbelievable. Everyone is saying so. No one has ever seen a post that good.
Now I wonder if Scotland is going to become it’s own country as a result of this.
robbie BOO-urns, robbie BOO-urns!
Despite Braveheart’s Hollywood interpretation of the Battle of Stirling Bridge being a bunch of hoo-ha, I still think the raised-kilt greeting would have been appropriate.

Oh dear
“Ya feecking cooont!”, I heard that too. Whatever does it mean???

You’d think that somewhere on the 'net I’d be able to readily find that clip from Carry On Up The Khyber, when I need it. But no.
The moment may have pased, but 2 or 3 hours later (and thanks to @TamsinBailey for hunting it down) this will take you to that clip if you are too young or too un-steeped in British culture of yesteryear to be aware of what I’m referring to. It takes a while to load.
