Here’s the mayor of London kicking children in a soccer game

Andrew Redington

Good: Encouraging young children to play sports.

Bad: Kicking them.

This is Boris Johnson, the mayor of London, who attended a soccer game with some kids in a park on Wednesday. They invited him to play, so he decided to KICK A 9-YEAR-OLD CHILD in an attempt to win the ball. The Pro-Kicking Children Lobby will give you its endorsement for your next election.
