Ros Atkins’ deadpan takedown of Boris Johnson’s CBI speech is brutal

"Interesting is one word, as we have heard, others are being used too."

A deadpan takedown of Boris Johnson’s CBI speech has been making the rounds on social media.

The BBC’s Ros Atkins covered some of the bizarre things the prime minister said in his usual snappy format, concluding that “interesting is one word”, but “as we’ve heard, others are being used too.”

Yesterday the PM enthused about a visit to Peppa Pig World and pretended to be a speeding car during an occasionally baffling speech to business chiefs.

He also made a passing comparison between himself and Moses, leading to some journalists even asking about his welfare after the speech.

Watch the Atkins clip in full below:

This is the most deadpan takedown of Boris Johnson’s vroom-vroom/Peppa Pig speech to the CBI you’ll see.

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.
