On the campaign trail: A storm in the British prime minister's teacup by WJames_Reuters
LONDON - Britain holds an election on Dec. 12, a political gamble by Prime Minister Boris Johnson who sees it as his best chance to break the deadlock in parliament over Brexit.
The main parties are on the campaign trail, traveling the length and breadth of the UK to drum up support.Boris Johnson’s first official election broadcast provoked immediate disapproval on social media. Not because of what he said about Brexit. Not because of the big election issues like the future of the health service, police or schools.
“I can’t be the only one who couldn’t concentrate on what he was saying because he left his teabag in his tea, surely?” asked Twitter user Adam Rowe.The furore prompted Johnson to respond on Twitter: “For those who’ve noticed, this really is how I make my tea. It lets it brew and makes it stronger.”Liberal Democrat leader Jo Swinson stepped into a boxing ring in North London to spar with club owner Matt Garcia in front of the cameras.
That can make for an uncomfortable mix. Labour audiences have in recent years booed and heckled journalists when they stand to ask a question.
