Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson's first official meeting with President Obama will be interesting. Suggest it starts with the word "sorry"

And one thing we wonder is: does Boris even want this position? We seriously suspect NOT. The guy is a clown – he wants to showboat – not do a real job.

The maddest appointment ever.

Unless, that is, the point is to get him to quit and look like an utter fool….
