LONDON - Boris Johnson probably expected a warm welcome as he took part in a campaign walkabout in a garden centre in the Leave-voting area of Sevenoaks in Kent.
However, the unannounced visit to the Polhill garden centre in Badger's Mount did not go entirely to plan, when he was greeted by two shoppers who appeared not to be his biggest fans.
"Good luck with your preposterous ideas," one woman told the frontrunner to replace Theresa May as Britain's next prime minister, to which he replied "thank you."
Another customer then piped in with the comment "crazy," before the woman went on to tell Johnson "it's a shame your brother is not running."
Johnson's brother Jo is another Conservative MP, who represents the nearby Orpington constituency, and unlike Johnson is opposed to Brexit and has joined the campaign for a second referendum.
Other shoppers appeared more pleased to see the former foreign secretary however, with one man shaking his hand and telling him he was "doing well".
