here's a quick transcript:

"I think Donald Trump is clearly out of his mind if he thinks that's a sensible way to proceed. You can't ban people going to the United States in that way or indeed to any country. And what he is doing is playing the game of the terrorists and those who seek to divide us. That is exactly the kind of reaction they hope to produce.

"And I have to say when Donald Trump says that there are parts of London that are 'no-go' areas I think he is betraying a quite stupefying ignorance that makes him frankly unfit to hold the office of President of the United States. I would invite him to come and see the whole of London and take him round the city except that I wouldn't want to expose Londoners to any unnecessary risk of meeting Donald Trump."

Cannot stop laughing

Edit: changed the "no-go" to single quotes

I don't have a lot of use for Boris Johnson, but he definitely has the gift of gab.
