Audience in Melbourne are completely surprised by this incredible performance when Boris Johnson breaks into Homeric Greek.

This video is a short highlight. Watch the full version on the Big Ideas website:
In terms of wit and erudition, most politicians look pretty lame alongside Boris Johnson, mayor of London. He’s in conversation here with the ABC’s Annabel Crabb from Melbourne Writers Festival
With a name like Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson how can you help but be hilarious.
For a translation see Aspassia Man. Or in English
Hilarious also to see what captions cc make of it.
