PM Boris Johnson - monster thread for a monster twat

A friend has just drawn this to my attention:
a pair of alabaster buttocks pounding across the pitch, draped in the Union Jack, to steal the ball
and now I can't unsee it, thanks to Edward Docx's review of Hannah White's book Held in Contempt, which 'details the parlous state of the UK parliament'. I haven't read the book, but Docx really lets rip in this (very TLS) article, which references Nietszche, Winnicott and Beckett... He writes with savage wit about Johnson's own contempt and how it damages our polity.

That may well be psephologically accurate but headteachers are, AFAIK, under no obligation to help reinforce the political preferences of their pupils' parents that vote.
I imagine they see no reason to refuse the visit and see it as a bit of mild excitement for staff and pupils to have the prime minister call by.
