Just Boris Johnson rugby tackling a Japanese 10-year-old

Just Boris Johnson rugby tackling a Japanese 10-year-old

Turns out Boris Johnson is big in Japan. Too big.

The mayor of London is on an official trip to Japan at the moment and got involved in a game of street rugby in Tokyo yesterday.

Unfortunately BoJo got a bit too into it, and sent a 10-year-old schoolboy Toki Sekiguchi

flying

to the

ground.


Boris shook Toki's hand and gave him a Rugby World Cup 2015 ball to say sorry, and overall he said meeting the mayor had been "enjoyable".
