Editor-in-Chief Clémence Smith discusses Boris Johnson’s career prospects following his resignation as Prime Minister.

Minions were overjoyed to announce that soon-to-be former Prime Minister Boris Johnson will be sworn in as their new leader. The Minions had dismissed their previous boss Gru just moments before, as it was revealed that he had become “too nice”.

Animation studio Illumination has since announced an upcoming film in the Minions franchise called Minions: Rise of Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson.

In a statement, Mr. Johnson remarked that he is eager to get the Minions’ “moon-stealing plan done”. Upon his arrival in the Minions’ bunker in an undisclosed location, Mr. Johnson plans to ban their hit cover of ‘YMCA‘ as he deems it “too woke”.

Speaking to Exeposé, Mr. Johnson further revealed that the recent #gentleminions trend brought back “fond memories” of his time in the Bullingdon Club at the University of Oxford. “The Minions really are wonderful chaps,” he added, “and I look forward to bringing them to see Peppa Pig World.”

Bob, who will act as Mr. Johnson’s senior aid, expressed his hopes for future plans: “Tank yu Boris underwear tulaliloo te amo. Muak muak muak banana poopaye!” No Minionese interpreters were available at the time, so Bob’s words remain a mystery.

About Clémence Smith

In her third year studying English, Clémence is eager to see Exeposé flourish and looks forward to writing articles with her co-editors. When she is not browsing the internet looking for new article ideas, Clémence is usually busy making memes to send to her friends or drinking bubble tea. The key to her heart, though, is her home town’s boulangerie (alas, the French cliché rings true). She will tell anyone who will listen about the latest book she is reading, or her quest to expand her Chopin repertoire on the piano. Most of all, she enjoys a cosy night in with her closest friends, playing overly competitive Monopoly or rustling up a new recipe for her housemates to try.
