Oh Boris ...

I have long had a very disturbing thing for Boris Johnson. I rationalise it away by saying that he's a cyclist, so aside from his questionable use of his penis and occasionally nutty policies, he must be a decent chap underneath. [Poll #1480605]

Ah, darling Boris, my favourite floppy-haired dear buffer. I completely understand your position; my inner anarcho-left-wing-hippie-socialist turns bright red with embarrasment at having to acknowledge a fairly hefty crush for him. His politics infuriate me, but the man himself is a delight.

He always reminds me of a big friendly labrador who has some terrible habits but you can't help loving anyway. Even when he comes home from a self-appointed ramble and he stinks to high heaven because he's been rooting around in a right-wing rubbish tip or rolling in a stinky City pile of something financial, you can't help but roll your eyes and say 'oh Boris! before hauling your mental image of him off for a good bath. (Or is that just me?)

Blush slghtly to admit it, but Digby nearly got named Boris in honour of Mr Johnson.

YES! And I picture him murmuring Latin endearments ... he could probably vidi vici veni me if we didn't both have partners.

You know, Digby looks a bit like him, too ...
