Boris Johnson's infamous 'ping pong' speech at the London 2012 Hand-Over party after the end of the 2008 Beijing Olympics. For the really funny bits, fast-forward to 2.20. Boris- you are a true legend!
Who else has come here after he became leader today?

That must go down as one of the GREAT speeches. But just look at the nervous, rictus grin on Seb Coe's face. Stuffed shirt politicians just get so jumpy when they're around someone who defies carefully crafted stage management and is happy just to cut loose and enjoy himself and entertain the crowd. Boris is completely unmanageable and therefore quite, quite brilliant.

I remember I had to do a double close reading essay for practice maybe a couple of months ago. The passages were about the effect of video games on children, the first writer claiming that games help us learn and improve hand-eye coordination, whereas in the second writer wrote about games turning children into mini satins, or something like that. This second passage was written by our man Boris, and needless to say I read it in his voice. I nearly cried with laughter when he wrote "Phooey!"
