I first met Boris back in the early 2000's when he became MP for Henley,
replacing Michael Heseltine. Since, I've probably filmed him a dozen or
so times over the years. He may appear a stumbling buffoon but I can
tell you that he is a very sharp cookie, very aware if what's going on
around him and extremely intelligent.

He sometimes puts himself into situations that others wouldn't dream of,
such as:

Images like these are a dream for newspaper and broadcast media. Boris
is the kind of bloke who'll give something a go and damn the
consequences. Some people find that attitude unusual and refreshing in
the staid rule-ridden world of politics.

As for his appointment as foreign secretary, there are some who would
say the new PM us keeping her enemies close where they can be
controlled. Others would say that his tough stance on Europe will be
useful in taking no shit from stuffy Brussels eurocrats. He is fluent in
French and German.

Love him or hate him, he will make some sort of splash. I will tell you
one thing though - as a future Prime Minister (if indeed he calms down
just a tad and stays out of trouble) he would be a total British
bulldog, I have no doubt.

I have no fears over Boris as a foreign secretary.
