    2 minutes after Johnson announced he wasn't standing, this was published on the Telegraph website. It has since been taken down...

      I don't think so either. But it doesn't demonstrate a long term intention to stay in the UK.
      So what? The uk has a ton of short term problems to fix asap so who cares about anyone's long term intentions...

        because fixing the long term problems may well be a way to fix the short term problems.

        1. Only give planning permission for new net zero homes and retrofits on 'significant' extensions rising to most in a few years (permitted development will need to include significant green improvements in 5 years).
        2. Build 3-4 times more homes. Make social homes only for the needy when they are needy.
        3. Move health service to prevention so curing is easier.
        4. Frack it!
        5. Kill the cones and recent spate of roadworks,
        6. Move jobs away from London to the outlying areas.
        7. Trim the civil service.
        8. Prepare for automation.
        9. Make it worthwhile working.
        10. Any ideas?
        Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.
