Quite appropriate, drowning out a drowning rat.

It's a fitting metaphor for his entire time as PM but what possessed him to push through it in a downpour? And didn't Johnson spend a small fortune fitting out a fancy briefing room at no.10?

I'd have enjoyed watching a lot worse happen to him than just being drowned out by music!

It's the bloke just screaming "Things can only get better" after the song ends if hilarious.

Amusement under late capitalism is the prolongation of work.

There's a fade to black, a long pause, and then Things Can Only Get Better starts playing.

Such a shame they missed the queue to do this when he either came out or left.

To be honest, it’s better if people don’t assume a landslide. That complacency is what will give the Tories their opportunity. Need to make sure people remember the anger at what they’ve done and get out and vote in huge numbers.
