If there was any truth in what you are saying then Johnsons sycophantic mates in the media would be all over it like a rash!!
Really odd behaviour to be so defensive of a man (Johnson) who wouldn't piss on the likes of you and me if we were on fire.
Quite a few on here have gone right down the Johnson rabbit hole. I hate to break it to you guys but "Boris" ain't your mate, in fact he despises us plebeians - just go and read some of his musings in the likes of the Telegraph or Spectator over the years.
As Max Hastings so correctly said about Johnson - the only people who rate him are those who don't know him.
Stop doffing your cap and tugging your forelock, he's laughing at you.
