Former London Mayor Boris Johnson has won the “President Erdogan Offensive Poetry competition” held by the Spectator. The flamboyant Brexiteer, a former editor of the magazine, is to be awarded £1,000 for a limerick which alleges that Erdogan had sex with a goat.
The competition was launched by Murray as a protest against the actions of German Chancellor Angela Merkel, who had given a green light to the criminal prosecution of German comedian Jan Böhmermann for his “defamatory poem” about Erdogan. Böhmermann, if found guilty of breaching a rarely used Section 103 of the German penal code that forbids insulting institutions and representatives of foreign countries, could face up to two years in jail.
