In news from Britain, recently appointed Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson is refusing to apologize for insults he’s leveled at various world leaders. Johnson has called Hillary Clinton a “sadistic nurse in a mental hospital,” and said, after the Obama White House moved a bust of Winston Churchill, that it was a “symbol of the part-Kenyan President’s ancestral dislike of the British empire.” Johnson also wrote a poem about Turkish President Erdogan having sex with a goat. This is Boris Johnson speaking at a joint press conference Tuesday with U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry.
Boris Johnson: “I’m afraid there is such a rich thesaurus now of things that I have said, that have been, one way or another, through what alchemy I do not know, somehow misconstrued, that it would really take me too long to engage in a full global itinerary of apology to all concerned.”
