This is a time of firsts for the NHA. Firstly, this is the first time that a politician has been awarded Unsung Hero. Secondly, Boris is the first unsung hero to not have musical roots, although he once delightfully quipped that he does have a pair of musical socks. "They were great, but they were confiscated from me once when they played Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer and disrupted Parliament. Of course, Parliament then had to be disbanded because the stench when I took the socks off was unbearable, and there were fears of a terrorist attack."
