Boris fixed!

As for whoever said he was extremely clever :S

Despite all appearances it's a matter of verifiable record.
He comes across as a buffoon, no doubt, and yet he:

• earned a King's Scholarship to Eton
  
• earned a scholarship to Oxford and got a 2:1 in classics there
  
• was elected president of the Union (the debating society for those that don't know)
  
• became Assistant Editor of the Telegraph
  
• became Editor of the Spectator.
  
  
  

You don't get to do all of those things without a considerable amount of mental ability.

Which makes his apparent twatishness all the more puzzling.
