There’s some lovely singing on this Sack Boris video. Apparently it is a “play on Phil Ochs’ song “Here’s to the State of Mississippi””

Charles I: so bad they executed him twice
Never noticed this before. As strolling past Trafalgar Square I saw the statue of Charles the first....

I am afraid I could ot play the music.But htere is no way I could vote for bungling Boris when He made the stupif Gaffe about the St Patricks Day dinner event in London,Calling it I R A CRAP when it had nothing whatever to do with Sinn Fein,How could He be so stupid Anton
Hmm, the video does seem to have been takeen off-life – that’s a shame it was performed very well.
Youu’re right about the st Patrick’s Day “gaffe” (if that’s what it was) it does demonstrate an underlying racism that all Irish people are the same. I’d forgotten about it, but it was incredibly crass and offensive.
After some fiddling – i can make it work in some browsers but not Firefox… hmmm… hit the limit of my skills now – sorry!
You can watch it direct at YouTube here http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=CbhO30t0SeI
Awesome you put it up!
Phil Ochs also did a version of his song about Richard Nixon, which someone else turned into a song about Rudy Guilani, ex Mayor of New York. I thought it only fair that Boris had his turn. After all, if there’s a byword for incompetence and idiocy, it’s Boris Johnson.
