Well, we probably would have believed you actually., decided to use his platform to support campaigners and make a change.
, before running an effective Twitter campaign focused on the UK’s poverty gap until a government spokesman announced that BoJo had been forced to make the highly embarrassing U-Turn we all wanted to see.
