This especially straight-talking Aussie interview is our favourite Boris Johnson takedown for as long as we can remember
Boris Johnson’s book tour appears to have taken him all the other side of the world for his only Australian TV interview, Channel 9’s 60 Minutes.
Alas for everyone else, the interview was recorded in South Kensington, not the other side of the world, but that’s not why we’re here.
We’re here because of this particular Q&A with interviewer Tara Brown, which we found particularly satisfying, shared by @implausibleblog over on Twitter, and we reckon you will too.
Tara Brown, "Our former Prime Minister Paul Keating described the AUKUS pact as the worst deal in all history.. He said the UK is looking around for suckers to create Global Britain after the fool Johnson destroyed their place in Europe"

Even harder to believe he was ever in 10 Downing Street than it was at the time.
I liked the way she said "fool Johnson" then looked at him!
