    How long did it take for Boris to come back from his jollies in Canada to deal with the Riots? His priority isn't with London, but lining his pocket with gold, like any other politician.
    Straws... grasping...

    Boris is also less likely to encourage Islamic extremists.

    Neither are perfect candidates.
    Boris is happy to cut police numbers and take his time to come back to the UK to deal with the London Riots. Whilst I don't promote support for Muslim Extremists, the Riots caused a lot of damage to the London and English economy. I am not saying that what happened in 2001 or 2007 should be taken lightly, but how both mayors dealt with the respective issues is wholey opposite.

    Whoever said democracy was fair ?

    Attacking tax avoiding millionaires whilst being a tax avoiding millionaire is just the icing on his hypocrisy cake
    And stating that his opponent does the same thing when he clearly doesn't is the cherry on the icing.

    Yes. I agree. Though oddly I would rather vote for Boris than Ken. I know he is an upper class twunt. And I hate conservative policies. But he had the bottle to go on HIGNFY.

    I think the tears are because Natalie the Newt turned him down.

    I suggest he is slightly unbalanced truthfully.

    would you vote for him if he repped you first?
