Globalisation can refer to a broad spectrum of views. From advocating for free trade to people who want global insinuations managing more things. Johnson is a clear free trade advocate and isn't opposed to migration. By UK standards he is a supporter of globalisation.
Incidentally anti-globalisation used to be very much be a hard-left position. One of the weirder things about politics now is seeing this language coming from the right, traditionally the biggest advocates for liberal trade policies. People have switched positions almost, although the fringes of the left still are anti-globalisation.
That said I think it's because of a realignment where globalisation vs nationalists seems to the bigger divide.
