"Who cares?"

I do. I don't want to be taxed unfairly by my government and I don't think anyone else should be either even if he is the Mayor of London England and is a dyed-in-the-wool Socialist wanker...

>> He’s the Conservative mayor of London <<

He may be a member of the Conservative Party, but Boris Johnson has no conservative values. He appears to be the UK's answer to Michael Bloomberg.

There are a surprising amount of people on this thread that don’t appear to know who Boris Johnson is. If you take an interest in conservative politics worldwide, it is absolutely impossible not to have encountered him.

He is the Mayor of one of the greatest cities on Earth.

He presided over the immensely successful Olympic Games in London in 2012.

Those interested in the classical world may have enjoyed his various books, including ‘The Dream of Rome.’

Churchillians amongst us (surely more than a few on this site) will know him as the author (authorised by the Churchill Estate) of the recent best-seller, ‘The Churchill Factor.’

He is being tipped to be a major candidate to be the next leader of the Conservative Party, and possibly, quite possibly, a future Prime Minister of the UK.

He is seen as a clown by many, but he is certainly, most certainly, not a nobody.

Well American citizenship is so cheap; just walk in; claim it and get nicely paid for doing so; is there any other country anywhere in world that would do such a thing.

American citizenship is not even on sale; it is free for the TAKING, a pile of outhouse crap will cost you more.

Think of all the blood and treasure over 200 years that is just being pissed on; don’t know about anyone else but I’m raging mad; not long ago (certainly in my lifetime) American Citizenship was the greatest treasure one could possess on the entire earth.

Many of us know and read Boris.

Anyone is allowed to make application for citizenship changes within the laws. This guy is going for higher office. Why not clear it up?

Boris Johnson is a Leftist loon, bordering on communist. If he wants to renounce his citizenship, so be it. No big loss.

This “Conservative” is a left-winger. He may not be as blood-red as his execrable predecessor, Red Ken, but he is a pretty rare shade of red.

He is too far to the left, even for the Cameronized wet Tories. And a giant rat bleached itself and died on his head.
