Although unconventional and odd for someone in his position, the Prime Minister has won the hearts of many both home and abroad for his very down to earth act which has earned him the nickname “The Bicycle Guy” thanks to an incident involving the Kenyan President, Uhuru Kenyatta.
He has also been known to be an advocate of bicycle transportation as he has pumped some million pounds into cycling societies in the United Kingdom.
This, according to him would help raise the country’s post-coronavirus economy and keep people healthy too.
