Boris has played his cards really badly which is quite a surprise for someone who has made an entire career out of being everyone’s favourite friendly bumbling uncle figure.
In fact if he’d have come out in favour of Remain, I suspect the vote might have just made it the other way, Cameron would have stood down before the next general election anyway as already stated and Boris would have been the perfect front runner, fresh from being Mayor of London and backing the winning horse.
Now he’s just been exposed as a spineless, self-serving, political egomaniac like the rest of them. Downfall indeed!
