Praise for 'Have I Got Views for You': 'Johnson is a good-humoured, entertaining commentator, with an agreeably optimistic bent.'

Tom Holland, Daily Telegraph Praise for Friends, Voters, Countrymen: 'Johnson has cracked the art of making politics invigorating.' Daily Telegraph 'Such an entertaining read.'
