In a bid to help businesses keep up to date, apparently, the Prime Minister has joined LinkedIn, and in the best tradition of the Curriculum Vitae, he’s neglected to list those jobs from which he was sacked.
This is how he shared the development.
Throughout the pandemic, so many businesses have done amazing work to support their staff and their community.
And we’re going to do right by them too.

And here’s what his work history looks like.
Twitter responded very much as you’d expect, with some noticing his omissions.
1.
Boris Johnson has left jobs he got sacked from off his new LinkedIn profile
I wonder why?— THE BLACK SALTIRE#FBSI (@80_mcswan) September 1, 2020

Would also appear that @BorisJohnson LinkedIn profile has clumsily‘omitted’ the period when he ‘worked’, for @thetimes newspaper… before he was sacked for ‘fabricating’ stories… I’m sure this is merely an ‘oversight’ … pic.twitter.com/9AWh8dSR5M

Why the doctored work history on LinkedIn, Boris?

Must be fake. It says being PM is ‘full time’. pic.twitter.com/QOuom0t0cz

Pro tip: if you join or suddenly start updating your LinkedIn just before bonus or salary review time it sends a nice signal to your boss/HR that you’re looking around. https://t.co/wKp6rmnC3g

A No. 10 spokeman just said Johnson is joining LinkedIn to engage with business as the economy recovers :))))
No wonder UK businesses are on their knees. Praying that Boris finds another job, I imagine.

Boris has joined LinkedIn apparently.
How long before he posts that picture of a bloke with a rock on his back holding on to the woman dangling off a cliff ?

If it’s as good as the rest of your advice I think I’ll swerve it thanks my silver spooned friend. You’ll probably change tack in a week anyway
