Boris Johnson praised for diplomacy after Italian skiing crash

“Will it ever be possible to also have here in Italy politicians who
display political weight and intelligence, combined with simplicity and
decency in everyday life?” he wrote.

In an article in The Daily Telegraph in February 2010, Mr
Johnson railed against the growing fashion for skiers to don hardened
plastic helmets
.

His own safety gear consisted of goggles and a woolly hat, he said, despite a
35-year-long skiing career “of relentless incompetence”. “Never,
in all the times when I have felt myself being catapulted headfirst from my
crossed skis, has it occurred to me to wear a child’s helmet to go skiing,”
he wrote. Mr Johnson was not available for comment last night.
