This year's Halloween, children have decided to dress as the Prime Minister of UK, Boris Johnson, with Johnson being at number 10 when it comes to the most popular Halloween costumes among children. According to the British parents, the children found the inspiration of dressing up as Johnson from Brexit. Some parents thought that the UK PM was the 'ghastliest' character in pop culture at present. Some chose to dress up as other popular/unpopular British politicians such as Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn.
