Simon Harris dismisses Boris Johnson’s claim in his new memoir that Joe Biden privately said he’s ‘not really Irish’


>I think Boris Johnson is a person who seems to be very good at selling books and I hope he is certainly much better at that than he was at being a politician

Nice burn in fairness

my god why would anyone care

Well….he isn’t. Why does Worzel Gummidge care.

OMFG, some old American claims Irish heritage, and an English toff has an opinion? Stop the fucking presses.

To be fair Biden could have said that. He says a lot of stuff that he doesn’t really mean or remember …..

Like he said Russia bombing a hospital was bad but gave Israel the weapons to do the same…..

Boris Johnson is a serial liar. I wouldn’t believe a word he says.

IIRC Biden has lots of English heritage so it’s plausible, but there’s a couple of factors to consider here:

1 – Biden isn’t all there cognitively so he could definitely have said it, 2 Johnson is a pathological liar so he could have made it up. Tough one to call

Backing genocides is a very British thing to do isn’t it?

Ah that’s why you and you’re Government are making a such a balls of running the country Simon. You spend every second of your day monitoring every single private conversation that Joe Biden has ever had….somehow magically.

U.S presidential Paddywhackery is a time honoured and traditional part of our foreign policy strategy don’t you know and Simon will be dammned if some floppy haired English gimp tries to dismiss it, to sell a few books. It’s clearly something that needed a firm and immediate response from the Irish Government. All the other never ending issues in this country just moved down the list, because this now is the top priority.

He is Irish said Simon, teary eyed and red faced. He loves being Irish, he loves Irish things and he told me we’re his second most favouritist country in the whole wide world after America, but we’re definitely the bestest of all the little countries and if you say anything bad like that again Boris, I’m telling on you.

I hate the fact that the independent can post in the Irish sub

Boris Johnson is a lying two faced cunt,let’s not forget his government were having parties while people couldn’t see their loved ones and had to watch them die through glass partitions.

What a non issue. I feel like Boris Johnson just wants to be the UKs Trump. I think most Irish-Americans like myself in the USA consider themselves Irish-American, not Irish (obviously), but may occasionally with context just say ‘I’m Irish’. I’d say I’m Irish to other Americans in America, because the ‘American’ is implied, otherwise it’s ‘Irish-American’.

Who’d believe a word out of bojo the clown
