Thus the Lord came among his disciples, and sayeth “I’m popping into town, anybody want anything?”; and the lads put their heads together and asked for pie. “Jesus Christ,” sayeth the Lord, “that means going to Wigan”. And so the Lord came unto Wigan.
There was much mirth and surprise as a Jesus lookalike was spotted walking the streets of Wigan
There were double-takes aplenty as Wigan shoppers and motorists sighted a Jesus Christ lookalike in the town centre.

Boris Johnson was one of the worst PM’s this country has ever had. Incompetent, self-serving and dishonest. The only thing worse is the continual platforming of him by the MSM……they clearly hate this country and us.
