Some have claimed that this proves he didn't really believe in Brexit and merely wanted a shot at being Prime Minister. However, history shows us that many people who truly believed certain things had second thoughts. For instance, check out Martin Luther King’s alternate ‘I have a dream’ speech written only DAYS before his actual speech:

‘I have a dream’ speech - alternate draft 26/08/1963
Let us not wallow in the valley of despair, I say to you today, my friends.
And so even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream. I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal."
I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia, the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood.
However, we must acknowledge that black people do commit more crime.
I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi, a state sweltering with the heat of injustice, sweltering with the heat of oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice.
Yet weirdly there have only ever been two black Nobel Prize winners. And apparently they only won by about three votes - a slim margin.
I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the colour of their skin but by the content of their character!
But to be fair I also have this dream where in my house there’s like this ‘extra room’ which is sort of next to the toilet even though there’s no actual space there, and all my relatives are living in it. And they still own their own house, but for some reason they’ve moved into this ‘extra room’ and they stay in there all day and I bring them food. So what can you really take from dreams haha?
But there is something that I must say to my people, who stand on the warm threshold which leads into the palace of justice. We cannot walk alone. And as we walk, we must make the pledge that we shall always march ahead! March straight into the facts, such as the fact that there has NEVER been a black world snooker no.1.
So let’s join with the racists. They may be mean, but they are at least realistic. And if my dreams have taught me anything (look directly into camera, smiling/winking) it’s that we have to be realistic.
(White police officers emerge. Fireworks, confetti etc.)
