As a Scottish fellow…the musings of Boris Johnson are to most those of an archetypal media twit. A man lambasted in public (generally by his class mates) for his political and social niavity. Are we really oblivious to the irony that these chuppas generally find an ideal home nestling in the moist perineum of old mother BBC? Is this mother fixation?? Suddenly out of favour and out of a job they try to focus celebrity light on their pathetic and chaotic lives by stirring mock controversy. The poor little chubby can’t keep his penis in his pants far less provide a thoughtful comment. Why should anyone be interested is the philosophical question of the age

hi there — the bbc isn’t a state-owned institution. it’s funded by the licence fee, not by government money.

And as an Australian allow me to sympathise with you for having had Lynton Crosby as the architect of the Conservatives’ immigration platform (Lynton’s actually not a bad guy, but THAT line .…). Allow me also to congratulate those British who voted, and voted against it — you’re obviously a more discerning lot than us Aussies.

I think Boris is a bit of a silly fellow. Like that first person said, he is happy to get his appearance money from them, so..either shut up, or don’t go on the BBC.
I can say, as an Irish person, the BBC radio broadcasting is a fine example of proper radio journalism, and proper radio programming.
WRT the BBC TV programming, hmm, well its quite abit better than other English TV channels.
His examples of “Nip/Tuck or Celebrity Sex Paradise” I think are wrong, as far as I am aware the BBC don’t run this drivel on their channels.
If Boris was a little more media savvy (and not so down right rude) people might not make fun of him, and his party.
I mean a party that was trying to tighten refugee laws, being lead by the son of a foreign person?
hmmm.…

Concidering Boris is perfectly happy to accept his appearence money from the BBC, I would concider his opinions on the organisation somewhat two faced.
Boris isn’t the amusing buffer he likes to portray, he has ambition and a proven ability to rise without trace. While he isn’t likely to get far in the upcoming concervative party leader election, he does want to be a very public figure during the process so next time he might appear to be the “king across the water.”
