Boris Johnson's secret plot to invade The Netherlands with British forces and seize Covid vaccines

Disgraced and humiliated former Prime Minister Boris Johnson drew up a half-brained secret plot to invade The Netherlands and swipe Covid-19 vaccine supplies, he happily reveals in his ludicrous new memoir.

The brazen ex-PM’s shameless memoir, titled ‘Unleashed’, details just how detached from reality the ludicrous Tory leader had become during one of the worst crises to ever befall the UK. Johnson claims he devised plans for the UK armed forces’ elite units to covertly raid canals in The Netherlands and seize vaccines, following what the bumbling toff claims were months of “futile” negotiations with European Union leaders to release five million Covid jabs.

The plan, a supposed contingency, came as, in 2021, supplies of the vaccine pioneered in the UK were allegedly “kidnapped” by EU leaders and held in a warehouse in the city of Leiden in the south Holland region of The Netherlands. The vaccines were supposedly held captive in the warehouse, caught up in red tape - made worse by Britain’s recent exit from Europe.

Johnson - the leader of the disastrous Brexit movement - now happily admits he drew up the ridiculous plan to send British elite forces in to seize the vaccines and raid Dutch canals. The Daily Mail is serialising Johnson’s big-headed memoir, in which even he admits he finally realised what anyone could have seen from the start - that his idea was, in his words, “nuts”.

Johnson also goes into detail about his brush with death during the Covid pandemic, when the virus - which he had initially laughed off and dismissed - almost killed him. The incompetent former leader infamously joked he had been shaking hands “with everybody” at a hospital where there were confirmed coronavirus patients, on the same day Downing Street’s scientific advisers warned that the government should tell people not to shake hands.

Within months, Johnson had contracted the virus, and came close to dying from it, claiming he made sure to not fall asleep while in the Intensive Care Unit at St Thomas’s hospital , as he feared he would never wake up and ultimately die.

He shockingly claims in his memoir that when former Tory Government Cabinet colleague Michael Gove, understood to be a rival, found out Johnson could die, “his spectacles seemed to glitter at the thought”.

Meanwhile the so-called Partygate scandal, that contributed to the end of his political career - after a series of exclusive exposes by the Daily Mirror - offers Johnson another chance to whine about his fate and attempt to reframe reality to his own view. The ex-PM puts in a staunch defence of his terrible and dishonest conduct, going so far as to write that he now feels he should have defended himself and his Number 10 staff, doubling down on the defence rather than apologising.

All he can bring himself to do is admit he made “several mistakes” before taking a swipe at civil servant Sue Gray, Keir Starmer ’s current chief of staff, who at the time was tasked with investigating the Partygate rule breaking Johnson’s government engaged in, as they broke the rules they themselves invented and insisted the British public followed.

Moaning Johnson claims Gray led “a ridiculous and unfair witch-hunt” against him.

Regarding the pandemic lockdown party that sparked a Metropolitan Police probe, Johnson refers to it as a “cake” meeting and writes: “I saw no cake. I ate no blooming cake. If this was a party, it was the feeblest event in the history of human festivity.”

Meanwhile, his shameless invective includes referring to new Prime Minister, Keir Starmer, as looking like “a bullock having a thermometer unexpectedly shoved in its rectum”.
