Boris Johnson says there’ll be Mars Bars after Brexit – 9 sweet reactions
We can see why Boris Johnson’s handlers have kept him away from the microphones as much as possible, because every time he opens his mouth, he says something incredibly stupid. We’ll never forget his hobby of painting buses or his admission that he doesn’t know what’s in GATT24, the article he claims will make Brexit a doddle.
During a leadership hustings in Belfast, as well as waving a kipper about, he started wittering on about people worrying that there won’t be Mars Bars after Brexit – because that’s obviously a much bigger concern than diabetes medication.
Judging by the reactions, Mars Bars may not be a top concern for …well, anyone.

Do you think Cameron ever looks at the man who'll be Prime Minister on Tuesday waving a fish about on stage and ranting about how how we might still have mars bars and flights in October and thinks "yeah maybe I do regret calling the referendum a bit"

Greetings, humans with an ounce of sense. Commiserate with me, as I watch this utter moron outline an exceedingly vague plan to save us from a crisis that’s entirely of his own making. I’m losing my mind, here. https://t.co/QggT8UhlZD

We have literally gone from saying let’s give the NHS an extra £350 million to don’t panic we will have drinking water and mars bars! Imagine clapping this nonsense.

People are cheering a vision of allowing planes, having drinking water and making Mars Bars.
Brexit expectation management is like a work of art. https://t.co/3pMSrSIW5h— Stig Abell (@StigAbell) July 17, 2019

So the next manifesto is: clean drinking water, no disruption to Mars bars and flying planes.
