Default London elections

JVR's trademark leftie link: http://www.guardian.co.uk/politics/2...is.livingstone

Never mind what a laughing stock we'd be, internationally, if we elected Boris Johnson as mayor. Never mind what a mess he'd make of the whole thing, how unproven he is in anything beyond having a big gob, never mind that if we think Ken Livingstone lives high on the taxi hog, God alone knows what this moneyed creep would get up to. Never mind all that for the moment. Let's just concentrate on this myth of his being a nice guy. He is not a nice guy.

I like ken and believe he has laways done what is best for london and not himself.... - his TV interview to the press immediately after the july 7th bombings was very emotional and just what londoners wanted to hear from Mayor at that time...

Boris is good on question time though...think he's more made for TV rather than the mayor job....

He was a guest DJ on Virgin radio a few Sunday's back when I was in UK, and to hear him introduce the songs in that voice of his, was hilarious !

and If Red Ken is so bothered about traffic congestion why did he only extend the charging Zone west and not also to the East (where most of his voters live)?

Oh man, how can anyone like Boris? A guy who still uses the word 'piccaninny' in serious conversation? Ugh. If he gets in, I'm leaving the country!

... oh yeah, I already did.

The guy is a lying bigoted snob. He'd be a terrible figurehead for London.

I absolutely agree. Although having been obliquely involved in some of Ken's shenanigans of the past few years, I would probably vote for Boris were I still in London.
