Daft as a brush

Does Boris want to be the centre of attention? I really don't see any future for him as a party spokesman. The Guardian summarises yesterday's infelicities:

· Attacked Jamie Oliver's school meals campaign after David Cameron had praised it
· Attacked new child safety regulations for cars
· Offended Scots, saying Gordon Brown may not be accepted as prime minister
· Implied that localism could lead to sharia law in certain areas

Not exactly on-message. There is an element of common sense in each of his points, but as usual it is pushed to the logical extremes. And he does so love to be the centre of attention.

Any doubts about his love of publicity can be dispelled by watching this video. (He could not have slipped out of the back door?)
