When Stanley says & #39;the whole country& #39; he of course means himself.

It& #39;s the classic thing of assuming everyone thinks the same as you do. https://twitter.com/bbcnickrobinson/status/1248501048592838657">https://twitter.com/bbcnickro...
Because I bet you CASH MONEY Stanley Johnson was still popping down his local ("don& #39;t worry, I won& #39;t sit next to anyone HAHAHA"), doing daily shop trips ("I like my bread fresh") and hunting escaped slaves ("they& #39;re indentured servants!") right up until Bozza got the Boris Bug.
This "I AM the country!" Thinking isn& #39;t just a right wing problem. Although it& #39;s more prevalent there (it& #39;s VERY Etonian). It also manifests in the hard left. E.g. old jam makers from Islington.

Which all helps explain the absolute fustercluck we& #39;re in right now as a country.
