Boris Johnson will be burned in effigy at this Bonfire Night festival


An effigy of Boris Johnson will be burned at an annual bonfire celebration.

Footage captured today (October 31) shows the 36ft effigy of Mr Johson wearing a cycle helmet, a pair of colourful boxer shorts and a blue jacket about to take a bite from a cake decorated with the EU flag.

Edenbridge Bonfire Society chose the former foreign secretary as public figure to poke fun in this year’s celebration.

Previous standout picks included Harvey Weinstein, Donald Trump or Russell Brand.
