Boris is never boring. He can always be counted to say the wrong thing in the wrong place at the wrong time. He is incomplete without his comedy of errors. That is his personal brand. But his gaffes are not always funny. In the latest outbreak of Borisitis, he was invited to speak at a recent major Asian business event in Singapore, where he promptly ruffled a lot of feathers by launching into another anti-China tirade, calling it a "coercive autocracy", forgetting that he was no longer in Britain playing to his base.
