To me it's like Londoners giving a big two fingers up to the rest of the country. Buffoonism at it's most lurid moment.
More like Londoners giving a big two fingers to the Labour Party, knowing that this result at least will make a noticeabledifference.
Fair play to the bloke. He's the lesser of the other evils, and wins the vote. Nuff said. What they come up with goes out of the window. Just the same as Nick Clegg, leader of Lib Dem'm and a Sheffield MP, and guess what, Sheffield's now Lib Dem. Suprised? I aint!
Labour invest billions in London and this is what they get,a bunch of ungrateful moaners,they deserve Boris
then why is it a dangerous shithole. The nasal monotone mayor has done sweet f.a. apart from hammer the motorist, and get rid of the good old routemaster.
Yay....We're back Boris is the first step on the road to recovery. Have no fears people of Barnsley salvation is just around the corner. No fecking way on this planet the English will elect a scottish prime minister. It may take Mr. Cameron a couple of years to undo the bungling of the last 15 years, but at least the dozy feckers have had the common to stop the unions taking back over.
Anyone who takes their car into central London needs their head read anyway - I've done it a couple of times, never again!
More to the point Why the **** has the contest for London Mayor got so much national news coverage.....the rest of us don't bloody care!
That would indicate London as some kind of litmus test. </p> The rest of the UK has more in common with Moscow.</p> Anyway, I don't share your optimism re the Tories. Strikes me the country would be in even worse hands than last time.</p>
I'd probably use some floating constituency like Blaenau Gwent You know somewhere borderline. Or the fact that nearly 20% of Barnsley voters voted for the Nazi party or that the split of the share of the vote across Great Britain is Con 44%, Lib Dem 25% and Lab 24%. And I agree the country would be in worse hand than last time. But the Lady is a very hard act to follow.
I'm interested to see how he does from the happy position of being a spectator from outside London. I dont think he is as daft as he makes out - but that could be both a good or a bad thing. I think a lot of londonors were so sick of Ken they were prepared to vote for anyone to get rid - and luckily for Boris he happened to be in the right place at the right time. He could be good for London but he could be a complete disaster as well Glad I didnt have to decide who to vote for
I don't think he's daft, but his sole raison d'etre seems to be to play the bumbling, mumbling buffoon with a penchant for putting his foot in it. Not the best image to have at the helm of good ship London. Still, it'll be fun.
Yes, the swing to the Nazis must be encouraging for the Tories. </p> And Thatcher is indeed a tough act to follow. Like small pox.</p>
Hehe. Small pox was slightly less painful, I imagine. And I'd be much less likely to dance on its grave.
