But I do know that Jeremy Corbyn has what can only be described as limited appeal.

As much as Thatcher did a lot of bad things, it's an insult to compare Boris Johnson to her. Johnson does unfortunately have a talent for telling people what they want to hear, even if it's totally untrue. The central Tory message of "get Brexit done" is an utterly false promise and he's not being held to account properly on his dishonest campaign.
