From casual racism to antics that draw attention away from actual problems. Like reciting a racist, colonial-era poem “The Road to Mandalay” on a visit to Myanmar. Hence drawing attention away from what Britain was doing about Myanmar’s genocide of the Rohingya.

People felt he was disrespectful for causing people to burst into laughter at a memorial service.

Additionally, this is the second incident of the PM not being able to handle his umbrella. Just a day prior he went viral for getting soaks despite having an umbrella. As Boris Johnson holds his umbrella too high and at an angle, he managed to get his clothes soaked.

It’s the consistency of his clumsiness that has people suggesting his antics are intentional. If they’re not, the public is concerned the British PM isn’t very well equipped for his job.
