Hard right ultra-Brexiteer, and doesn't seem to know the first thing about basic geography, which is a bit unfortunate in the Foreign Secretary. Didn't seem to know about the connection between Dover and Calais and its importance to trade. Got Peru and the Philippines mixed up in a recent speech.

It's a bit as it would have been in America in the early 90s, if GHWB had been seriously ill and there was a possibility of Dan Quayle taking over.
