As ever, Boris Johnson is just piping up nonsense, secure in the knowledge that the prime minister is too weak to sack him.

Lack of any sort of understanding of basic geography is a common failing of today's politicians, but especially so for Boris Johnson, who has a history of supporting outlandish and unrealistic infrastructure projects such as the "Boris Island" airport in the Thames Estuary.
