Even here in Australia, it’s hard to escape the utter calamity that Brexit has become.

Unsurprisingly, the British prime minister and chief EU exiter, Boris Johnson, is hardly popular amongst his constituents at the moment.

And that was definitely on show when UK’s Sky News took to Johnson’s own electorate of Uxbridge in West London to gauge the mood of the voters.

The reporter hijacked one particular lady in Uxbridge’s main street and asked her opinion of the incumbent PM. To which the woman responds, “Do not mention that name in front of me, that filthy piece of toe rag” before storming off. Check out the calculated assassination below:

And, yes, the unnamed woman has become an immediate internet sensation in Britain. Check out some of the reactions below:Screen shot 2019-10-07 at 7.48.16 AM
