Mr Johnson – famed for his literary references – said of Mr Putin: ‘He’s like the fat boy in Dickens. He wants to make our flesh creep. He wants us to think about it. He’s never going to do it.’ In Charles Dickens’s first novel The Pickwick Papers, a servant known as Joe the fat boy tells an elderly lady, ‘I wants to make your flesh creep’, with a shocking revelation about her daughter.
Mr Johnson – booted out by his party in September amid uproar over lockdown-breaking parties in No.10 – also urged the audience to ‘stop worrying about Kremlinology’.
