Boris is a classic example why the growing British habit of being an inverse snob its massively anti British. Boris Johnson is a total legend and a real tribute to the great British eccentric. He is vastly more patriotic in his politics and what he stands for than bitter left wing inverted snobs.
If all these neo national socialists had their way no one would be allowed to be successful and there is nothing British about that attitude.

As much as I fear for London the 'control' of an incompetent racist like Boris, I've come to the conclusion that, in the long run, it could turn out for the good. Two years in, no, make that six months, he will be out on his arse anyway, and no-one with any sense and objectivity will go near the Conservative Party for a generation...which will just leave the right-wing nuts who would gladly vote Hitler in given the chance.
I fail to see how Boris is a racist when it was Ken Livingstone who allowed the publishing of offensive and antisemetic cartoons not to mention his comment to that jewish reporter
Boris Johnston is a laughing stock, a man of intelligence and eloquence who for some reason feels he is at his best when coming across as a bumbling idiot who knows nothing. He is as corrupt as any UK politician and would if elected Mayor continue to be a bumbling patsy to big business. Electing Boris to a position of power ranks alongside entering a Turkey puppet for Eurovision, funny idea but ultimately just embarrassing for all involved
To ArdanC : Having worked in academia, I have found that the most intelligent of the human race, tend to lack somehwhat in social skills - that does not mean they are no good at their job. Boris is highly intelligent and capable individual who would be a vast improvement over the anti-semetic communist livingstone. It has been proven over and over again that all Labour know how to do is spend, and not govern. Given that Browns Economy is going down the drain, it is time for a change!
As you yourself say, he lacks somewhat in social skills, people sadly for Boris are an integral part of the mayorality therefore lacking skills to deal with them would be rather a major handicap. Your assertion that Browns economy is going down the drain also somewhat bypasses the complexities of the international money markets and implies that Brown not greedy rampant capitalists are at the root of the current problems,foolish of you really. Ps. what has been proven, and when?
ArdanC - You must be able to see an economy predicated on debt is non sustainable. After Brown sold off all the UK Gold, and spent his way though the last 10 years of Growth, he now has a big deficit to see us through the coming recession. The banking industry is in chaos, personal debt is at its highest ever, the housing bubble is in the process of popping, unemployment is on the rise, and the pound is in free-fall. No wonder both Boris and the Conservatives are massively ahead in the polls!
The sale of UK gold did not cause the current crisis. The current turmoil in the economy, as I'm sure you're aware has been caused by the rapacious greed of big business and the complicity of the government in this, a complicity directly attributable to conservative policy. Cameron et al are not pushing to curb this disgusting behaviour rather extend it to profit from the abject misery of the British people. Johnstones years at the economist are indicative of his sympathies with regard to this.
I was not suggesting the gold selloff was a cause, merely proof of Browns economic incompetence. I really dont think you can blame conservative policy for the way labour has governed over the last 10 years - this country would be in a healthy position with a budget surplus if conservative principles had been followed.
So to ask a second time, Brown sold the UK Gold which was an error, what has been proven over and over again? Whilst your assertion that an economy predicated on debt is unsustainable you I presume are happy for businesses predicated on debt to write off their losses via the government coffers? Should we carry the risk for these banks who feel no social responsibility whatsoever? Will Boris stand as a man for londoners or for the scum who'll employ him once he's served his time in office.
Proven: House prices have been artificially hyped to extend the debt-driven boom economy. Unemployment has been reduced by tripling the size of central government. Labour Party finances have been so poor that they are now once again the puppets of the unions. Inflation is being manipulated via CPI basket when it is in reality MUCH higher.
Re. Bailouts - no, i am not in favour. Let poorly run company's, Banks or funds collapse as they should do in any market economy.
He need to Brush his hair or have a hair cut , thats a only way he can attract more people to vote him who only like him , tory party is running out of steam.
boris...u make me proud 2 be human...when i turn the tv on a nd see a.ll these wankers with der lies and fake politics..it brings sunshine 2 my life 2 see some people are still human and willing 2 have a larf..boris for mayor
I just wish we had more politicians like Boris, ALL politicians are fallible human beings without exception. Boris tho' is one those rare examples - a politician who can laugh at his own fallibility and unlike him, those who can't are just common or garden hypocrites.
Yes boris, suprise suprise there are conservative supporters at a conservative pre-election rally. Doh! You should encourage homer simpson to enter politics, then you won't look like such a bafoon in comparison!
Tory councils charge less tax because they tend to be in wealthier areas of the country; this means they can charge a lower persentage of tax and still resieve a higher amount of money.
