And it proves he doesn't give a damn about NI. Which most of us already knew, but someone should tell Arlene Foster and co.Borisism is also about firing anyone who's not a boot-licker, it seems.

Re: What is Borisism?
Some people are just never happy!
I guess it's no different from winning the lottery. For a few weeks you are ecstatic (no anti-semitic Marxist terrorist groupies), then you go back to being miserable! More self awareness please, gentlemen!

One of the risks of hiring contractors. He sounds like a precocious upstart, what?This may be less of a Borisism than an outgrowth of the Cummings regime, but Andrew Sabisky does seem like a splash of color. White color, but still....

Re: What is Borisism?
He certainly didn't spend much time researching the (historically-loaded) subject of the correlation between IQ and race, not to mention the race vs genetics problem. And digging out the eugenics - the hauly grail of statistics! Seriously, what we know best about correlations in soft sciences is that anybody making firmly conclusive statements based on them is either stupid or has some agenda. This one looks to me like an embarrassingly stupid man."As for race and IQ, I can only excuse the journalists here on the grounds of laziness, since the facts are perfectly clear to anyone who has researched the issue for more than 5 minutes (which I do appreciate is an awfully long time). ..."

You talkin' to me? I got it first time.

Re: What is Borisism?
He is a poor lecturer, I will grant that. But that’s something I know about 
I like the news stories that say “His views on...have recently emerged.” Rather disingenuous. It’s the difference between a natural birth and a Caesarian.
