Ian Hislop also had a message to Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer about his support of unions, and also isn't over the moon about Liz Truss.

Boris Johnson has said the Queen was “as radiant and as knowledgeable and as fascinated by politics as ever” in their last meeting before his resignation as prime minister.

Praising the late monarch as “Elizabeth the Great”, Mr Johnson also revealed that he recently “choked up” when he was asked to make a pre-recorded tribute to the Queen by the BBC.

In a House of Commons chamber filled with MPs clothed in black, Mr Johnson described the Queen as “the keystone in the vast arch of the British state”.

Johnson’s legacy

His speech aside, what will his legacy be?

Well, Joe.co.uk asked Ian Hislop.

Spot on Ian Hislop on the legacy of Boris Johnson:

"Nothing. Literally nothing! It should be, don't allow amoral narcissists to become prime minister. That's an important legacy!"

Ian Hislop used to do political satire. Under Johnson, UK politics became so bizarre that now he's a serious political commentator. Satire carries stupid things to crazy extremes; under Johnson, everything got seriously crazily extreme, so there was nowhere for satire to go. https://t.co/IBYBchlBnn
