Ken vs. Boris: It's So On

:-(

welcome to laughing stock city, Londoners

Boris: thanks the 'knocker-uppers'.

Boris: disputes multi-culturalism.

Does he think he has won an oscar?

So basically it's STARTING ALREADY.

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

He is such a terrible speaker. The audacity of mediocrity.

haha

Boris: some shit about pencils.

he was fucking aping thatcher and doing it so very very badly

Sorry, can we please secede from the suburbs?

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

Where there is discord, may we bring harmony...

yr gonna want to secede from 'west central' too while yr at it

will boris

...scrap the low emissions zone?
...scrap bendy buses in 2008?
...scrap the proposed £25 to drive into London for porsche cars?

no
impossible this year and for many years
yes

never got the bendy bus hate

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

looks like I picked the right week to buy a car.

Sian Berry cut off in her first sentence.

capital of world capitalism

Boris should ride the top deck of the first double deck 521 from waterloo.

what is he planning for the congestion charge (not londoner so don't know how it works now)?

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.

fuck. goodnight.

I'm not sure if he had a manifesto commitment on that or much else for that matter.

xpost

521 LOLS. Too much politics for one week, I should just arrange for dark room until 7 May.

As far as I can tell from the backboris.com is that he has commited not do introduce the £25 charge for high emission vehicles, I infer from that he has no plans to change the status quo.

I'd quite like to put V3ron1ca Wadl3y's windows in right now. I bet she has a lot of windows, it could take me all night.

what is he planning for the congestion charge (not londoner so don't know how it works now)?

"The Congestion Charge must be reformed. Congestion has now risen above pre-Congestion Charge levels. Ken Livingstone's £25 levy will not improve congestion or emissions and will hit families and small businesses - it is a stick with which to beat motorists which is why I will not introduce it."

Translates as: "The Congestion Charge will not be abolished. It brings in a shit load of cash. Ken Livingstone's £25 levy will not improve congestion or emissions and will hit families and small businesses - so I will introduce a £20 green charge and throw in some expanded boundaries as well."

FUCK OFF GILLIGAN FUCK OFF FUCK OFF FUCK OFF

His transport policy is ken's minus the congestion charge plus yah boo sucks to the RMT. He wants a no strike deal from them, I can see where that leads.

...minus the £25 charge...

FUCK OFF GILLIGAN FUCK OFF FUCK OFF FUCK OFF FUCK OFF FUCK OFF

He will introduce a green congestion charge since he says he 'supports' the LEZ - it'll just be less than £25.

oh look it's gilligan

FUCK OFF GILLIGAN FUCK OFF FUCK OFF FUCK OFF FUCK OFF FUCK OFF

who was putting Boris as their second choice? the crypto-fascists, obviously. And maybe 1/3 of Paddick's?

i have just got home. i am moderately drunk. i have just become aware of the result. I FUCKING HATE THIS COUNTRY.

Boris's victory speech is so transparently not written by Boris.

his kids did it, right?

The idea that Johnson will win a mayoral election in the UK's most ethnically diverse city is hilarious.
