Londinium faces a bit of a doomed-either-way scenario when choosing between Red Ken and Bumbling Boris. I honestly couldn't endorse either - Ken is clearly a man more keen to settle old scores with the Labour party than do anything that average Londoners want, while Boris, bless him, doesn't seem to have a political idea to his name.

I think it's gonna go to Boris, which should make for some interesting headlines, but I can see chaos when ever he's called to actually do anything beyond look cuddly, in that public schoolboy, spankings-from-matron kind of a way.

He called them whingers and then had to go up there and apologise. Which is probably why he has a strange cult following in Manchester. Citing him has the one man bold enough to tell the truth about Liverpudlians. And for that reason alone, I do have a nagging hope that Boris wins. Saying that, if he's in charge and the Taliban decide to drop some suicide bombers into the tube, we're totally fucked. The guy wouldn't know a terrorist from a teddy bear.

thats the thing, for comedy value he is priceless but for a crisis as much use as a chocolate fireguard.

As prospective drinking partners, Boris wins everytime. It's the choice between a night of Bloody Marys and cigars in a gentlemans club in Mayfair or some freshly squeezed mango juice in a community centre in Tottenham.

demonrail666 · 05.01.2008, 04:28 PM

Boris the hit-man Johnson!

demonrail666 · 05.01.2008, 04:31 PM

Go Boris ... Go Boris ... Go Boris!

demonrail666 · 05.01.2008, 04:33 PM

Boris - Motherfucking - JOHNSON!

demonrail666 · 05.01.2008, 04:36 PM

What do you mean? I AM smiling!

radarmaker · 05.01.2008, 05:29 PM

Fuck Boris Johnson with half a rusty iron fencepost.

That cult following I mentioned earlier, clearly didn't reach as far as Newcastle.

You'll be banished to the hell of drinking phlegm if you don't apologise for that.

I think most Tory voters vote for them purely because of Boris.

Amy Winehouse or Pete Doherty come across as being more competent than Boris Johnson. Ken Livingstone is by no means someone you'd trust your daughter with, but at least he seems more on the ball. I bet Boris Johnson will win just because he'd bring a different face in.
