Ed, Friday, 2 May 2008 22:54 (eighteen years ago)

I'd hope Berry could get 100k+ London-wide but even if every single one of those voters gave their 2nd choice to Ken, he can't do it. Especially as it doesn't seem Ken will getting any joy from Paddick supporters (an extra 10k at best if the polls are way out).

Michael Jones, Friday, 2 May 2008 22:54 (eighteen years ago)

Even DJ Martian can't say something funny to lighten the mood :(

Porkpie, Friday, 2 May 2008 22:56 (eighteen years ago)

Boris: thanks the 'knocker-uppers'.

James Mitchell, Friday, 2 May 2008 22:56 (eighteen years ago)

Boris: disputes multi-culturalism.

James Mitchell, Friday, 2 May 2008 22:57 (eighteen years ago)

Does he think he has won an oscar?

Ed, Friday, 2 May 2008 22:57 (eighteen years ago)

So basically it's STARTING ALREADY.

suzy, Friday, 2 May 2008 22:58 (eighteen years ago)

YouGov has it, at final polling, as Johnson 53 Livingstone 47. Which, sadly, sounds about right.

suzy, Friday, 2 May 2008 23:00 (eighteen years ago)

Boris: I will now simply repeat back a list of Ken's policies and then not act on them over the next four years.

James Mitchell, Friday, 2 May 2008 23:01 (eighteen years ago)

Brian Paddick now making his speech, in the manner of a middle-manager sheepishly explaining he might have to lay some staff off.

Matt DC, Friday, 2 May 2008 23:05 (eighteen years ago)

gabbneb, Friday, 2 May 2008 23:06 (eighteen years ago)

Ed, Friday, 2 May 2008 23:06 (eighteen years ago)

caek, Friday, 2 May 2008 23:06 (eighteen years ago)

At least I'll be able to drive through London on my farewell trip*

*not actually going to happen for a couple of years, but the resolve is stronger now.

Bocken Social Scene, Friday, 2 May 2008 23:07 (eighteen years ago)

grimly fiendish, Friday, 2 May 2008 23:07 (eighteen years ago)
