Image of a news headline with a photo of Boris Johnson and Rishi Sunak toasting pints of beer in a pub. Headline reads:

“Boris Johnson says people should work in-person again because when he works from home he gets distracted by cheese.”

"When I work..." Bozo Boris is lying yet again.

[-] Th4tGuyII@kbin.social 17 points 1 year ago

Exactly. Implies he actually does any work at all

Stupid sexy cheddar won't leave me alone

People don't seem to understand Boris is trying to fool search engines with these articles.

When searching for "Boris Johnson cheese" you used to get articles about his illegal cheese and wine party during the pandemic. Now you get articles like this.

Whenever you see an absurd Boris Johnson article, he's trying to push down some other story on Google.

The man out there doing search engine optimization in real life

[-] Buxton800@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

Yeah, same with the £300 million to the NHS on the side of a bus. He then did some bizarre interview talking about how he makes model buses out of old boxes in his free time.

[-] FQQD@feddit.de 20 points 1 year ago

i would too

cheese is more distracting than you think

[-] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Yeah, my reaction was "What a stupid argument. It's not wrong, but it's stupid."

[-] TheBat@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago

Is 'cheese' a slang at Eton for pussy?

[-] the_ocs@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Maybe one of his kids?

[-] empireOfLove@lemmy.one 11 points 1 year ago

He just like me fr fr

[-] Fades@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

This is how the elite sees the rest of us: brain dead morons that must be held to task and controlled or they will fuck off.

Absolutely disgusting seeing how the only people able to fuck off and do fuck all are said abusers of capitalism

Thanks for the laughs 😀

No problem. Always happy to share classic Studio C when the time is right.

this can't be a real fucking article

[-] Hawk@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 1 year ago

When Boris posts absurd articles like these, it's usually to cover up another article and make it disappear on Google.

[-] xusontha@ls.buckodr.ink 6 points 1 year ago

Boris got his cheese obsession, and Carlson got his M&M obsession

Are ALL politicians attracted to some sort of food?

[-] I_Fart_Glitter@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Over here Reagan was obsessed with Jelly Bellys, Bill Clinton famously loved fast food in general and got pretty fat while campaigning, I don't think Obama was actually all that obsessed with fancy mustard but half the country was obsessed with him having asked for it once. Trump has a famous addiction to McDonalds cheeseburgers and diet coke.

[-] xusontha@ls.buckodr.ink 2 points 1 year ago

That's an interesting overlap in venn diagrams; presidents and foods lol

[-] rynzcycle@kbin.social 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Absolutely no self-respecting Londoner is accepting those pints without asking for a top-up.

For anything that is short measure, and particularly anything more than 5% short, we recommend that you ask the bar staff for an immediate top-up.

ETA: Just realized this is at Fourpure, likely when they did that stupid photo op holding empty 30L kegs to celebrate passing duty relief for beer sold in 40L packaging or greater.

[-] onion@feddit.de 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

A few pubs may still use glasses that are called line measures – these are slightly over-sized glasses that have a line near the top to show the level of one pint.

Interesting – these are the only kind you'll encounter in Germany. Probably because we want the head, as no head is associated with staleness

[-] Obi@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 year ago

UK lagers are super flat with very little carbonation and they indeed serve them all the way to the top.

[-] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

They might do it outside of a photo op, but beer with a head photographs better. Plus, imagine the optics. "Greedy, drunken politicians throw a hissy fit over a scant pour during a photo op."

[-] LuckingFurker 37 points 1 year ago

It's actually very clever, because the aim was to distract from the "wine and cheese nights" thing - if people google "Boris Johnson cheese" this story is more likely to come up than anything else. He's clever enough to play the buffoon, and that's worrying

[-] Z3k3@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

It was the same thing when mogg did the lieing down in Parliament. It broke the search term Jacob reec-mog lieing

[-] ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.de 16 points 1 year ago

And when he said he likes painting model buses to distract from this false campaign:

[-] Z3k3@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

That one clearly worked well. I had no idea he tried it for the red nhs bus

We are just lucky that Rees-Mogg doesn't have the charisma of Boris Johnson, at least Boris is only after satisfying his own ego

[-] Hyperreality@kbin.social 6 points 1 year ago

Haha, funny boris like cheese. How relateable!

Meanwhile, these cunts were having a party while their incompetence and corruption contributed to the death of 200,000 people.

Cunts are still running the world.

[-] LuckingFurker 3 points 1 year ago

Preaching to the choir, I'd have them all tried for every single one of those deaths

Sunak doesnt drink alcohol.

[-] silasmariner@programming.dev 5 points 1 year ago

Not all pints are alcoholic
