PMQs: Boris Johnson calls Keir Starmer a 'plastic, pointless, bollard'

Boris Johnson branded Keir Starmer a “pointless human bollard” in his sign off speech in his last Commons appearance as prime minister.

Speaking from the dispatch box for the final time, the outgoing prime minister also called the Labour leader “Captain Hindsight” and boasted his successor would “wipe the floor” with him “like some household detergent”.

this may have been his worst PMQ's ever, all boris did was deflect and insult Kier starmer without answering a single question.

[UnfoundFilms]

Does he think if he keeps screaming “we got Brexit done” it’ll magically become true?

[anomad]

Boris is pathetic.... couldn't respond to facts so uses personal attacks.... what a joke

[leehargreaves]

"We got Brexit done" Boris screams.... in the same way the designer of the Titanic screamed "Don't worry, it's unsinkable.
Only 35% of the people actually voted for Brexit PLUS it isn't done. The oven-ready deal Boris signed wasn't cooked through.

Boris has no answers. However, he does have plenty of lies and insults. It sums up his Premiership, and the sooner he's gone, the better for us all.

[jeromeosullivan]

The only time I'll ever agree with Boris Johnson. Starmer is a waste of space.

[jimboable]

How very adult and professional of him .

He’s not wrong, Keir inspired as much as a lamp post

[eyesopen]

it is down to the people that voted for Johnson for the mess we are in, 15 years of his scandal's now we are paying for it so thanks Tory voters

[andrewkirkland]

A plastic bollard that beat Boris hands down LOL

[theycallmethebass]

I mean, he's not wrong. I say that as a Labour member.

[casperwallace]

Country is on its ass and Boris gives us slogans. Thanks Tories/Labour who voted Boris in and Brexiteers.

Personally, my favourite was "great supine protoplasmic invertebrate jellies"

[ThePereubu]

I have never been happier to see the back of a prime minister and I am including Thatcher!

[magyarbrit]

Pathetic would be the best way of describing Johnson. Other synonyms would be sad and weak or helpless.

[ambigousBarrel]

Can't rebuke with facts other than he got Brexit done. I wonder what his memoirs will say? "I got Brexit done" for 300 pages (?) What a joke.

[sinofman]

Pot calling the kettle black a little bit there lmao

[mrd]

Only three things ever come from that smirking mouth: Lies, boasts and insults. Ironically PMQs will be pretty boring now without them, but I'm certain the country will be better without him.

[jeremylawrence]

Don’t the Conservatives care at all about how they are viewed by the electorate- each and everyone of them is a total and utter embarrassment to British democracy and the people who elected them!

[ibriza]

ive gotta agree with boris - what has kier starmer actually done?
