A HYSTERICAL viral video shows a man waking up during a police dawn raid only to find the Prime Minister at his door.
Rapper Splinter Sales, from West Norwood, south London, said he was awoken at 6am when Metropolitan Police officers were carrying out a raid in his flat.
Filming his reaction, he opened the door and said: “Let me put Boris in my phone, wagwan Boris?”
He then burst into laughter before adding: “I just saw Boris Johnson in my face, man.
“Do you know how drunk I was last night?”
Wagwan is a slang greeting used in London, similar to “what’s up”.
Splinter Sales told The Independent he was hungover when he stumbled on Johnson in the hallway of his flat while the police he was accompanying were “screaming”.
He said: “I was so shocked,” he added. “I was drunk last night, I woke up to see Boris Johnson in my face. I thought I was dreaming.

“I had a good time at [Notting Hill] carnival and I never expected it, pow, I was just so confused.”
Splinter Sales said he was not arrested in the raid, adding: “I don’t know what they were looking for but nothing happened to me.”
A 23-year-old was later arrested in connection with a raid on suspicion of supplying Class A drugs, the Met confirmed.
The raids were carried out in Lambeth and Lewisham, with Boris Johnson accompanying the London force’s Specialist Crime Command.
The force said they found Class B drugs and paraphernalia at a property in West Norwood as well as a phone police believe was used for placing orders for drugs.
Detective Superintendent Victoria Sullivan, lead for southeast-based proactive teams, said: "Drug dealing inflicts untold harm on our communities. Disrupting the lines of supply is central to our work in tackling violence which is the Met’s top priority. There are strong links between the two.
"This is just one of many enforcement operations being carried out daily as part of our focus on targeting the line holders, while also helping to safeguard the vulnerable people they exploit. Our message to the drug dealers is clear – we are coming for you."
Speaking after the raid, Johnson mocked concerns from within his own party that the police are distracted by “woke” issues.
“Well, I’ve just seen them. I tell you what, I’ve just seen a bunch of police officers who woke quite a lot of drug dealers this morning and they woke them long before they were expecting to have their breakfast,” he said.
“They woke them with warrants, and they woke them with the news that they were under arrest for causing misery in the communities of London.
“And that’s what I want the police to do, that’s what Priti wants them to do.
“I thank them for what they’re doing. They’re doing an absolutely fantastic job.”
