I hope someone is keeping count, because I doubt he is.

We send Boris Johnson £350 million a week in child benefit. Let's spend it on the NHS instead.

I misread that as sniping, but that'll do in the meantime.

That would be acceptable.

As per the Beeb article he has "four grown-up children with second wife Marina Wheeler, and another daughter from an affair" plus the other 2 he had whilst in office. So I'd say eighth as the bare minimum

["Carrie and Boris Johnson have announced the birth of their third child, a second son.

Carrie Johnson, in the caption of an Instagram post with a picture of her holding the newborn, joked: “Welcome to the world Frank Alfred Odysseus Johnson born 5th July at 9.15am. (Can you guess which name my husband chose?!)”

The former prime minister Boris Johnson is keen to be thought of as a scholar of the classics. In Greek mythology, Odysseus leaves behind his wife and child to seek adventure, encountering many other women along the way."](https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2023/jul/11/carrie-boris-johnson-announce-birth-baby-boy-frank?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_Other)
