Johnson Parodies “Love Actually” In Brexit Plea [VIDEO]

Business Insider reports:



British Prime Minister Boris Johnson has parodied the 2003 rom-com “Love Actually” in an ad asking people to vote Conservative in support of Brexit. In Johnson’s remake of the iconic Christmas-carol scene, the British prime minister imitates the character Mark (Andrew Lincoln), holding up cards telling a woman in the scene — mimicking the film’s Juliet (Keira Knightly) — that her vote has never been more important.

“The other guy could win…” the card says. The British prime minister then holds up cards claiming that if the impending December vote doesn’t result in a working Conservative majority, then Parliament will continue to argue about Brexit until he looks like an old dog. “Enough, enough. Let’s get this done,” Johnson says at the end of the ad, before the message “Vote conservative actually” appears.
