Boris Johnson being called “deluded” on live TV is the clip we all need right now
If we understand this correctly, and we’re kind of hoping we’ve got it wrong, Theresa May is trumpeting that she’s won some kind of victory because she got a small majority to agree to a proposal that has already been rejected by the EU numerous times. We live in interesting times. One of the chief agitators for this new position has been Boris Johnson, seen here being interviewed by Sky political journalist, Beth Rigby.
Haggis UK managed to capture this clip of the interview.

People are very much here for Boris Johnson being called deluded, not to mention the smooth side swipe about Theresa May riding a unicorn.
my drug of choice is @BethRigby interrupting Boris Johnson to read him Donald Tusk’s statement & then telling him to his face that he is deluded pic.twitter.com/ZUOiyF8jwr

Boris Johnson's face when @BethRigby tells him that the his plans to get a better deal than the one he just criticised are utter fantasy…

Veteran reporter, John Simpson, may have cut straight to the heart of the matter with this comment.
When I was the BBC political editor, in the early 1980s, I was shocked by the ignorance of most MPs about the way the outside world worked. Judging from today's proceedings in Parliament, things don't seem to have changed much.

Nailed it.
