Boris Johnson

To call London a melting pot doesn't do it justice. It's a melting pot of melting pots, with cultures from every corner of the globe throw in. Royal palaces are a block away from kebab shops. The smells of curry, jerk spices, pizza, turmeric, and borscht fill the air. It's as cosmopolitan as a city can be.

So who better to lead it than Alexander Boris de Pfeffel... let's just say Boris Johnson, for short. London's mayor is... get this:

American-born Descendant from two English kings Part Turkish Part German Has Muslim roots Educated in Belgium Married a Sikh

And oh, yes, of course:

Has Jewish roots

Can't be the most cosmopolitan mayor without that part, right?

(Editor's update, July 23, 2019: Well, he turned out to be quite a nutjob. And now... Prime Minister?)

Verdict: **Barely a Jew**.
