British Prime Minister (PM) Boris Johnson was briefly left lost for words, when he misplaced notes during a speech on Monday to the Confederation of British Industry, reports Reuters.

While organising and searching for words in his notes, the conservative party’s leader sighed, said “blast it” and repeatedly muttered, “forgive me”.

Not only this, while addressing, he mentioned Peppa Pig, a British animated cartoon series. He said, “Yesterday I went, as we all must, to Peppa Pig World. I loved it. Peppa Pig World is very much my kind of place: it has very safe streets, discipline in schools.” “Who would have believed that a pig that looks like a hairdryer or possibly a Picasso-like hairdryer, a pig that was rejected by the BBC, would now be exported to 180 countries with theme parks both in America and China?”

In the speech, PM Boris, who also performed an impression of a car told business leaders about what he terms the green industrial revolution.

Reacting to his speech, Boris said he had made the points he wanted to.

“I think that people got the vast majority of the points I wanted to make. I thought it went well”, Johnson said.

After this episode, according to The Guardian, his party MPs (Members of Parliament) are worried about the prime minister’s competence.
