Official explaination for the publication of this comedic triumph follows

To make sure as many people as possible know about the London elections, London Elects produces and distributes an information booklet. If you are a registered London voter you will receive a copy in the post before election day. The booklet contains manifestos from the Mayoral candidates, information about how to vote and lists of all the candidates standing for the London Assembly.




All the mayoral candidates had the opportunity to add their own 'mini-manifesto' to the booklet in return for £10,000 towards the printing and distribution costs. Nine of the 10 candidates chose to do so.




The booklet is 32 pages, with each candidate having two pages of A5 for their manifesto. The Greater London Returning Officer (GLRO) - Anthony Mayer - drew lots to decide the order that the manifestos appear in. The order is as follows:




Richard Barnbrook, British National Party
Lindsey German, Left List
Boris Johnson, Conservative Party
Sian Berry, Green Party
Brian Paddick, Liberal Democrats
Gerard Batten, UK Independence Party
Alan Craig, Christian Peoples Alliance and Christian Party
Matt O'Connor, English Democrats
Ken Livingstone, The Labour Party




Winston McKenzie, an independent candidate, chose not to enter a manifesto into the booklet.




London Elects issued the guidance to candidates on how they should supply their manifestos and what content was acceptable. The candidates were responsible for developing their manifestos but the GLRO had final say on what could and could not be included in the booklet.




London Elects will start to send out the booklets to postal voters from 16 April and all registered London voters should receive a booklet by 28 April.




Contact London Elects if you would like to receive the booklet in large-print or Braille: 020 7983 4444 or info@londonelects.org.uk.
