Hard Republicans hate him, but I think Joe Biden is a brilliant choice for a president of the United States.

Daithí Ó'Sé. A lot of people can't stand him, and he's an awful eejit...but that's what I like about him. He can be very funny.

He seems really nice.

Boris Johnson. I mean the guy is ****ed up in so many ways but you still look at him and think yea he isn't that bad compared to othera. Take the other Prime Ministers, Taoiseachs, First Ministers we've had on these islands recently

Tony Blair
Gordon Brown
David Cameron
Treasa May
Bertie Ahern
Brian Cowen
Enda Kenny
Leo Varadkar
Ian Paisley
Peter Robinson
Arlene Foster
Boris Johnson

Seriously if you had to pick one leader to be your mate and hang out with it would probably be Boris. He looks like he's be a bit of craic on a night out, would pay his fair share and wouldn't make a show of you at the end by vomiting in the back of the taxi. And as for running a country. Well most of that list utterly ****ed up the economy of what they were in charge of and the ones that didn't kept the economy going by either war or blatant corruption.

Boris ain't the worst.

This has aged well.

Absolute grinch, but I find her interviews amusing

EmmetSpiceland

James Corden. Never watched ‘Gavin and Stacey’ but in that sports quiz he’s got on Sky and the talk show in the States he seems fine.

AllForIt

Peter Hitchens (he's actually gas craic imo)

Donald Trump (I really don't like his son though)

Jordon Peterson ( much maligned, you hate him before you ever heard him open his mouth)

Boris Johnson ( Initially I didn't like him, but later I think there is more to him I initially thought)

Maggie Thatcher ( some mis-steps along the way but I still think she was a total gem)

Ricky Gervais

Vogue Williams, Gwyneth Paltrow and erm the British Royal family.

In Soviet Russia, Soviet Russia regrets Putin.

Jenna Ryan. Not as a person, but I find her tweets amusing. She is a real try-hard!

Can't understand the dislike for him. He's not the right wing nut he's made out to be (he clearly leans left on most issues), and he readily backs ups his arguments with well founded research from multiple viewpoints.

All he does is basically just speak common sense.

How do you know that? You are just reacting to a carefully edited persona of his kitchen shows on tv.

I wonder how good the editing was.

Check out Gordon Ramsay's Boiling Point from the late 90's. The way he treats his kitchen staff in that show is utterly appalling.

I'm sure they're not. He picked up that arsehole behaviour from working for Marco Pierre White.

Dunno how unpopular Taio Cruz is (I'm sure a lot of people were sick of hearing "Break Your Heart" or "Dynamite" on the radio ad nauseam, back in his heyday) but I really like some of his "after he was famous" stuff, such as "Signs" with HUGEL.

It's a pity his newer stuff hasn't been as successful. It's quite good.

Bad ones are. You don't have to be a dick to your staff as a head chef, restaurant owner or any other business owner. treat you staff like dirt and it wont end well for you.

James May was my favourite of the three Top Gear (2002-2015)/Grand Tour hosts.

I've had to quit work experience placements because I've had to work with uncompromising people.
