Jeremy Paxman interviews Boris Johnson at the Tory Party Conference
Jeremy Paxman interviews Boris Johnson at the Conservative Party Conference during Newsnight on BBC 2, October 4th 2011. Stick with it - it gets more and more bonkers! The funniest piece of television I've seen for a long time!

Paxo: "What's the difference between you and David Cameron?" Bojo: "Well, I'm the mayor of London and he's prime minister and what else, I'm older than him! I'm considerably heavier. erm what else. I beat him at tenis the other day, though I think he's probably better at tennis than I am..."
Damn ... Paxman and Boris are an excellent mixture for a laugh!

"Scuffed Britain". Brilliant.

Paxo & BoJo need their own TV series.
This is absolutely hilarious, especially from about 6:45 onwards.
I've never seen anyone turn the interview back on Paxman like that. Paxman even had a genuine laugh at one point. Wow.

@@user-sf7kl9uh7k Also it's funny how you appear to be searching for Boris stuff to watch. This vid is 3 years old. People can't help but listen to Boris like him or not. That's a start for a leader. As an MP if you can't get anyone to listen, you're on a loser straight away.
07:29 'When you stop beating your wife questions' - could not stop laughing from then on.
Just wonderful. The bit towards the end when Paxman asks Johnson if he feels intellectually inferior to Cameron given Cameron got a first.... pure gold and very funny to see Paxman cracking up at Johnson's response. Surely this must be one of Paxman's favourite interviews!
8:28 why we must never trust what this clown ever has to say
Paxman was completely sussed on Johnson - it always was a stepping stone in the back of his mind for something else, and something even bigger, and in particular PM. He asked all the right questions. It was as obvious at the time as it is today or in the future for those looking back on this with hindsight.
I fancied cheering myself up, so i thought I know, I'll watch a Paxman/Johnsn interview! Always does the job!
I've been looking for ages for the video clip where Boris says "correctamundo" but I still haven't found it. I was hoping this was it. This was still pretty funny though. He's such a buffoon.

Boris method: just keep talking until you come out with a coherent half-sentence, talk over interviewer, throw in a tenuous joke or classical reference, keep smirking, hope for the best, what jolly fun. Hope no-one analyses what I say or do too closely. Ten years on, still working.

He's such a good interviewer. That said, Boris does have some good ideas, particularly surrounding the transport systems in London. Bikes all the way old boy.

As a liberal living in the US, I'm really jealous. Like him or not, Boris Johnson is a serious person who can make a coherent argument and doesn't talk like his audience has a fourth grade education. Can't say the same for the right wing politicians here.

Its not about the person the failed polies in the far right conservatives must change asap or its the end. They need to increase disability payments,health and social care,elderly care,give the bottom 15% a 5% payrise, and let the disabled contribute towards a pension like everyone elese in the workforce.
I think there is a very good chance that Bojo will become PM one day. He has a positive vision for the country compared to that Corbyn fellow who ‘s so negative.
nigel farage says hes going to being bringing in the 50 p tax he should be shown this it will never happen
Masterpiece of an interaction. I wish I was as intelligent as Boris.
Boris Johnson is so good as a politician and it is a shame people think he’s no better than Trump - a huge insult given Trump can’t hold a candle to him.
Indeed, Boris is one of the few politicians that doesn't leave his personality at home. I wouldn't give him my vote either but he's got a Basil Faulty / Tommy Cooper thing about him. I could watch clips of the man for hours. Effortlessly hilarious!!
