Description

With a mandate from only 0.25% of the UK electorate, Boris Johnson has been elected Tory Party leader and Britain's next Prime Minister.

Johnson has called gay people "bumboys", black people "picanninies" and compared muslim women to "letterboxes". He's now willing to take Britain to a no-deal Brexit.

So, can Britain survive Boris?
