Watch in full: Boris Johnson addresses UN general assembly – video

[dontsqueezethecheese]

The irony of everyone flying in, on mostly private jets, to hear this speech isn't lost on me.

[clp]

What an embarrassment. Presenting to the UN isn’t the same as talking at a rugby club dinner.

[robemofficial]

Oh the irony of him talking about selfishness and taking decisions that are bad for us all 😂.

[thomasmorin]

Looks like boris has had a haircut especially for the occasion.

[RuairidhGray]

Wow…this is our “distinguished” Prime Minister. What a total embarrassment. 650 MPs and this is the best we can do.

[AndrewJamesKirkwood]

At first I thought that Boris Johnson is wearing another of his ill fitting suits, but then I realised that there's nothing wrong with it, it's well tailored, the real problem lies with the cut of the fool wearing it.

[michellestevens]

Hes a dangerous entity he is. Lies to the people about his intentions

[themintleaf]

Boris, it is too bad unfortunately you spoke so late in the evening in the General Assembly that all the UN Member States were represented by junior level staff. All the Heads of Delegations e.g. Prime Ministers, Presidents, even Foreign Ministers including the Secretary-General of the UN had gone home. Even the UN Security Officers who should have stood behind you were missing.

Morrison's Australia would support nuclear powered cars before electric vehicles.

Imran khan is the leader among world leader who took initiative of billion tree tsunami.

[brendanduprey]

While I do not like the politics of Johnson I commend his speech. It seems he is well aware of the catastrophic future we are headed towards. The leadership of developed countries like the UK are essential for global cooperation in regards to the issue of climate change.

One of the greatest speeches I've ever heard.

For those who possess a closed mind, I suppose there's little point in suggesting you view this address to the UN General Assembly.

The detail, philosophy, and humour in this speech offered those, open to persuasion, a case for a world of individuals to consider an alternative route we may take.

The only things missing were aggression and superior dogma. Make what you will of this refreshing change.

Sure. Considering HE doesn't even choose what to say in interviews. |

"It's time to listen to the scientists." Bit late for that, mate.

By 'eck, has Carrie finally bought him a comb?

[neurosurgeryquetta]

World need visionary leaders like PM Imran Khan.

[peregrineslim]

Given his adolescent behaviour maybe humanity reaching maturity resonates with him personally?

[applemac]

He is an utterly wicked and sinfully depraved individual. He learnt nothing from his near escape with death.

[faisalghafar]

Really appreciate Boris jhonson sir atleast only in this world recognised Pakistan efforts to reduce global warming only uk no one else,
Rest of this world needs to step forward 🙏
