During an interview with ‘The Mail on Sunday’ newspaper, UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson did some press ups to prove he was “as fit as a butcher’s dog”.

“I’m as fit as a butcher’s dog now,” Johnson said, and after asking: “Do you want me to do some press-ups to show you how fit I am?”, the prime minister, dressed in a shirt and tie, then got on the floor to complete some press ups.

“The country is going to bounce forward, and I certainly feel full of beans. Never felt better.”
