Brexiter Tory MP’s story of public support for PM didn’t seem to fool anyone

"And then Elvis stopped and offered me a lift. I said no thank you, as I had Shergar with me. And I galloped off into the sunset," said one person in response.

Brexiter Tory MP Peter Bone recently defended Boris Johnson after a picture showed the Prime Minister at an apparent party during lockdown, saying it “doesn’t prove anything”.

Peter Bone said the picture didn’t look like there was a party “at all”, adding that “the police carried out a very thorough investigation”.

He doesn’t think it much of a big deal and neither does one of his constituents, apparently.

He tweeted: “Just stopped by a constituent on the embankment in Wellingborough .He was Labour but joined the Conservatives because of Boris. “Boris got us through Brexit and Covid . Leave him alone and let him get on with the job” l reckon that gentleman speaks for most of my constituents.”

Reaction

Not everyone was convinced by Peter’s comments:

1.

Just got stopped on the street by a doctor for no reason. He said he used to hate people but was drawn to medical practice after being inspired by Harold Shipman "getting it done". https://t.co/AkSWh1Dlo3

Just got stopped by a constituent. He said “That Peter Bone is right bloody fruitcake – how the fuck did he become an MP?” I reckon that gentleman speaks for most of my constituents.

Just stopped by Scarlett Johansson in the lane outside our house. She was a Hollywood film star once, but has given it up and moved to Norfolk because of me. "You're so wonderful, Hugh: let's get on with the job." I reckon that lady speaks for most female Hollywood film stars. https://t.co/wGVkT7uJ3l

I just got stopped by a mechanic in Twickenham. He was on Lewis Hamilton's pit team but joined Ferrari. Said I should enter my Kia into F1. "It got you through a busy commute.

Just been stopped in the street by a triple Olympic gold winning British gymnast. He said "I thought I was straight till I saw you on the Chase. Something about weight gain, neck folds and smugness drives me wild." I was flattered, but politely declined and went on my way. https://t.co/LKfkl967QC

I was just stopped by an MP on the embankment in Westminster

He fixed me with a steely glare. “My name” he said is “Bone. Peter Bone MP”

Taken aback I mumbled that I was pleased to meet him
“Listen young man” he said (strangely as I am not young), “listen *Boris is beautiful*” https://t.co/wWyAdbnICz

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
