  How is that a "betrayal" ?

Boris Johnsons Dad is already French (as his Mother was French) and he has business interests/connections there and he was just making it easier for himself to go to France

that makes Boris some kind of a Frenchie as well..... OMG please have mercy,  don't let him apply for one

If that's correct and if my memory is corrected, Boris may have inherited some his fathers "bad" genes

The words "rat" and ""sinking ship" spring to mind. I'm half Irish, and I must admit getting an Irish passport has crossed my mind, just for the visa free travel thing. In fact, going back in time, when I was as fit as <deleted>, when it was a toss up between the Royal Marines and the Foreign Legion, that guarantee of French citizenship was pretty tempting; unfortunately life, in the sense of a woman, intervened, and I went a totally different course.

I have a friend who joined the French Foreign Legion at 16. There were 360 in his intake.........8 survived, when he left 5 years later on half pay and with entitlement to a French passport and pension.

Leads me to suspect that Boris is a "Russian asset."  Papa wants to be a French citizen.  France has always had a close relationship with Russia.  Boris is not exactly an Anglo-American name.

 

Come to think of it, there are a few apparent connections between our Boris and Boris Godunov, who began his political career in the court of Ivan the Terrible.

If only the Brits could "impeach" their leaders.....

 

Actually parliament can impeach individuals, normally holders of public office, for  high treason or other crimes. The last impeachment was that of Henry Dundas, 1st Viscount Melville in 1806, since then other forms of democratic scrutiny have been favoured and the process has been considered as an obsolete- but still- extant power of parliament.

I am part Irish too but I went for the Irish passport years ago - I still have to choice if I really want it but the Irish passport gives me access to the UK whenever I need it for as long as I like (this is based on a little known international agreement that provides equal access to both Brits and Irish to both UK and Ireland).

 

For me keeping the Irish passport it is about being able to live and work in any part of Europe I want, being able to travel freely and stay as long as I want, being able to bring my pet on a pet passport whenever I travel in Europe, being able to sell my services anywhere in Europe and have my qualifications recognised. Makes having a holiday home in Spain possible and relatively easy, for instance.

Baby Boris fell too many times off the  changing table. Forgive him.

There’s about 4 million of the EU’s own rats that decided it is better to stay in the U.K. Why are they not scurrying home? Why have those Remainers who took EU passports not packed their bags either, but prefer to stay in Blighty and moan. 

How many of those now sporting an Irish passport have ever set foot on the Emerald Isle?

They all know where their bread is buttered, especially post-Brexit.

I think that was found to be a "concerned neighbour" who just happened to be a Labour Party activist!

Would they be the ‘rats’ picking your fruit and veg because you’re too bone idle ? 
 

So onto bread buttering - you come up with any financial (I know Brexiteers get offended by the word economic as too awkward)  projection figures yet 4-5 years on ? Feel free to reply with a meaningless cliche sound bite with no figures attached.

4 million fruit and veg pickers? You overestimate their usefulness. 

Why haven’t you packed your bags and left if you believe your financial projections of woe? The 4 million financial migrants obviously don’t believe them.

I believe there is capacity in the EU for member states to create bilateral agreements with non members, should they be inclined, there old boy, you have a totally differing ball game to the 'predicted' unionised we will grind you into the dirt approach.

Not a fan.....but give him his due.....he is/was an ardent Remainer and supporter of the EU.

Except that it wasn't - if you are going to start an argument then it would really behove you to make sure of the facts first. Ignoring reality is all very "Quixotic" but it doesn't work in debate!

Boris was born in the USA. Why didn't he stay there and become a US politician? He'd could've been Trumps VP!

 

What a team that would be 555!
