Boris – A Man Of Integrity?
The latest edition of Private Eye has an interesting article which begins by detailing Boris Johnson calling the hounding of Journalist Nick Watt ‘Disgraceful’.
It then goes on to detail (including a transcript of) a recorded telephone conversation between Boris Johnson and Darius Guppy, in which Boris promises to get Guppy a journalist’s home address, so that Guppy can arrange for the journalist to be assaulted.
It’s good to know that our PM is a person of integrity.

Guppy: “Have you got this number [for Stuart Collier]?”
Johnson: “Darius, look, there is a guy at this moment going through …”
Guppy: “You’re brilliant.”
Johnson “… his files at home.”
Guppy: “Fantastic.”
[conversation continues]
Guppy: “But I am telling you something, Boris, this guy [Collier] is getting my blood up, all right? And there is nothing which I won’t do to get my revenge. It is as simple as that.”
[conversation continues]
Johnson: “How badly are you going to hurt this guy?”
Guppy: “Not badly at all.”
Johnson: “Really, I want to know, because if this guy is seriously hurt I will be *** furious.”
Guppy: “I guarantee you that he will not be seriously hurt.”
Johnson: “How badly hurt will he be?”
Guppy: “He will not have any broken limbs or a broken arm and he will not be put into intensive care or anything like that. He will probably get a couple of black eyes and a cracked rib.”
Johnson: “A cracked rib.”
Guppy: “Nothing which you didn’t suffer in rugby, OK? But he’ll get scared and that’s what I want him to do. I want him to get scared. I want him to have no idea who’s behind it, OK? And I want him to realise that he’s ***ed someone off and whoever he’s ***ed off is not the sort of person he wants to mess around with.
“Because I guarantee you Boris, I guarantee you these people are, you know, if someone hurts their boss or threatens their boss, I promise you it’s just total sort of, it’s like they’re like dogs, they are like alsatians or rottweilers, they love their masters, they are affectionate towards them, they are evil *** to everyone else.”
Johnson: “Yeah, good. OK, Darry now, yeah, I mean …”
Guppy: “You must have faith in me, Boris.”
[conversation continues]
Johnson: “OK Darry, I’ve said I’ll do it. I’ll do it, don’t worry.”
Guppy: “Boris, I really mean it, I love you and I will owe you this.”
Johnson: “Darius, look, there is a guy at this moment going through …”
Guppy: “You’re brilliant.”
