RE: The Speech
I actually needed to check again about Cameron and Johnson, seems they both met and studied in Eton but then later in Balliol College of Oxford Uni, that is why I was thinking about Oxford, because I remember the famous photo:

That was all in newspaper at the time of Brexit and also it is on special board of graduates of Oxford. Anyhow, the politicians often met long ago their political carrier. I remember that scandal with Cameron, there is also a movie about that, can't believe that sometimes such things happening. Often journalist can dig out such nasty stuff, it is quite bad here with press.
Politic is a hard job in any country, I never envy them but someone has to do it.

Yeah, the british press seems to be something else. We've got some rags but not that hungry heyena type of gutter press. Might be an extension of british banter culture, in a weird way.
Politics is a hard job, no doubt about that. You must be crazy to volunteer for that, which seems to be part of the issue. Makes me think of The Thick of It, especially in context of the UK.
