Boris Johnson lost his speech and started talking about Peppa Pig in one act | VIDEO

From the green industrial revolution to unicorns and Peppa Pig. The first Minister British, Boris Johnson, briefly lost the thread of his speech in front of business leaders and improvised with an anecdote about his recent visit to a theme park from the famous children’s cartoon of the pink pig.

“Damn it,” muttered the premier, searching through his notes, as he apologized to those present for forgetting his lines at the Confederation of British Industry in the port of Tyne, in the north of England.

Then, to cover up the uncomfortable moment, he said: “Yesterday I went, as we all must, to Peppa Pig World. I loved. Peppa Pig World is my kind of place: it has very safe streets and discipline in the schools.

Johnson went on to talk about tech “unicorns” and asking executives if they had visited the theme park in Hampshire, southern England, based on the children’s animated television show that he called the world’s largest Peppa Pig World and ” perfect for young children ”.

“I’m surprised they weren’t there,” Johnson confessed. “Who would have believed that a pig that looks like a hair dryer or possibly a Picasso-type hair dryer, a pig that was rejected by the BBC, would now be exported to 180 countries with theme parks in both the United States and China?” .

Green technologies

During his speech, Johnson said that investing in new green technologies and redistributing wealth and industry outside of the well-off south-east England could make Britain’s economy “the largest and most successful” in Europe.

The government faces widespread skepticism from the business sector, which largely opposed Brexit, a cause Johnson championed. Many UK businessmen argued at the time that leaving the European Union would make it difficult to do business with the 27-nation bloc, Britain’s biggest trading partner.

Trade between the UK and the EU in both goods and services has plummeted since the final separation in early 2020, although some of that disruption could be due to the pandemic.

Confederation of British Industry CEO Tony Danker said the business community is pleased with the government’s commitment to economic growth, but needs to see “detail and delivery.”
