Of course he's a buffoon! 'A ridiculous but amusing person'

I'm not saying he's not clever, nor that he's not capable of being PM.

Just that it would be an incredibly high-risk thing to have him as PM.

He could easily have written a powerful piece, making the same points, without the ridiculous jibes.

A statesman he most definitely is not!
