The Tory leadership was privately appalled when Johnson said in the annual Margaret Thatcher lecture last week that greed was a "valuable spur to economic activity". He called for the "Gordon Gekkos of London" to display their greed to promote economic growth, though he also said they should display a social conscience.
Johnson also mocked the 16% "of our species" with an IQ below 85 as he called for more to be done to help the 2% of the population who have an IQ above 130. "Whatever you may think of the value of IQ tests it is surely relevant to a conversation about equality that as many as 16% of our species have an IQ below 85 while about 2% …" he said. Johnson then departed from the prepared text of his speech to ask whether anyone in his City audience had a low IQ. He asked: "Over 16% anyone? Put up your hands." He then resumed his speech to talk about the 2% who have an IQ above 130.

Time to dust off this thread as the UK's fourth party (england's third) is having its conference 
Unfortunately, the building used as a venue was built with EU funding and delegates were reportedly left stranded at the railway station because most of the taxi drivers were taking the day off for eid. Masha'allah!

Ah UKIP the party of working and underclass trash, the party for people who think they aren't listened to and shouldn't be listened to because they aren't really worth listening to and to be honest they aren't really people either.

I see comments with random words like this all the time on forums, you've missed out the "how to make $1000 per hour" link though.

Trust me, for all your anti UKIP protestations, your viewpoint on life is far closer to Farage than SNP are, going by the things you write on this forum.

Astonishing indeed.

This could be the beginning of the end of this may fly party. Garage/Farage cant afford these sort of losses.
