hstewie said: I think it simply points out that Boris seems to attract people who wouldn't have gone to bat for May or Cameron, which seems difficult to dispute given his endorsement by Farage and Tommy Robinson.
Having missed them would it be possible to give a link to each of those two 'endorsements'? turbobloke said:

Here's Tommy telling all his supporters to vote for Boris Tommy Robinson endorses Boris Johnson to be prime ministerI'd have thought the Farage one is pretty self-explanatory seeing as he's stood down half his candidates to ensure Boris is Prime Minister.

If forced to choose between Tommy Robinson and Hamas as political allies, which side would you take?
How about neither one?I mean it is possible to distance yourself from them both.
Or is that where we're at now? Unable to say Johnson should distance himself from someone like Robinson "because Corbyn".

If somebody endorses Boris without any request or reciprocal approval (mutuality) then the identity of the endorser is hardly something to hold against him? Guilt by unwanted association would surely be overturned on appeal.
Trump has already endorsed Boris, Putin has supported brexit, and BJ has survived. Quite apart from the inherent challenge in finding a definitive smear, BJ surviving these political earthquakes must be a miracle.

If you live in a Tory/Labour marginal seat then that's pretty much your best shot at influencing the outcome. I mean it is possible to distance yourself from them both.

Or you could just drop the idea of deciding who and who not to vote for on the basis of who ekse supports them and vote based on the policies they stand for.

It's pretty desperate to take Robinsons drivel as having the slightest bearing on the Tories' policies, or Boris' views. If Tommy Robinson told me I was on fire, I'd ask for a second opinion.bhstewie said:

Tommy is a fairly typical leaver in some ways, so no surprise to see that he is backing Boris.

Corbyn on the other hand has been endorsed by the UK Communist Party, the ex leader of the kkk, Nick Griffin, the Daily Stormer, the IRA and Hamas amongst others.
Equally detestable and good reasons why Corbyn is unfit for office.I don't get why there always has to be an equivalence.
