After celebrating his return from a month-long absence by brutally roasting Republican blowhard Josh Hawley, John Oliver returned to Last Week Tonight on Sunday and kicked things off by addressing the resignation of Prime Minister Boris Johnson, the buffoonish and Trumpian U.K. leader who stepped down on July 7 after a number of members of his own Conservative Party resigned from Parliament over his scandal-plagued administration.
“Boris Johnson finally stepped down earlier this month after succumbing to a series of scandals—and in doing so, he offered this inspiring farewell,” said Oliver.
A speech of Johnson’s was played where the floppy-haired lame duck announced, “I want you to know how sad I am to be giving up the best job in the world. But them’s the breaks.”
