Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson aka Boris Johnson is not as clumsy as his haircut makes him look to be. The guy keeps fit, doesn't look like Rambo but he is fit with a bit a sticky build. He is intelligent, he survived the muddy waters of politics, affairs and is prime minister.
Of course he always knew he is American dual citizen, a person like him does not handle an apartment sale himself, he has handlers and advisors. And he was in a very high income bracket for a while and it's safe to say he fell into a us taxable segment before that sale.
He is a showman and this was just the event where the tax bill was too high and he said "no more".
hah yes this. the buffoon act really makes people underestimate- and if i dare say, sympathize with him. but he's much more competent (at getting what he wants) than people give him credit for.
In the military I saw people get kicked out for being “overweight.” Interestingly, they could run circles around you for 12 miles, throw you several yards, or otherwise destroy a Physical Fitness Test.
He's also not terribly organised or rule following. He probably just thought he could ignore the US tax and no one would notice. I'm not sure if he paid in the end or got around it by renouncing his citizenship?
