Five years this week since Johnson was booed at the Oval cricket ground
Lest we forget it is five years ago this week since the man who was Prime Minister Boris Johnson was booed by a crowd at the Oval cricket ground as he was noticed asleep during the final Test between England and India on September 8th 2018
Don’t expect Mr Johnson to draw attention to the anniversary this week but it is a reminder that political popularity can go down as well as up and can do so remarkably quickly.
Just last week US Presidential challenger the far right Ron DeSantis was booed in Jacksonville after racist murders
My 2018 thoughts on the wider context of political booing are below:
