Man, Boris is just brilliant. London voted for him because he's virtually the only real politician in our country today who is passionate AND has a great ability with people. He plays up constantly because he knows it works! Even Ken Livingstone said the guy is a superb politician who should never be underestimated.

Boris is a highly intelligent politician, wearing the genius disguise of a stand-up comedian.

Incredible politician there. 12 minutes of absolute bullshit with not a whisper of any concrete policies. Thank god Mummy and daddy didn't decide for him to become a surgeon or a GP or else right now NHS waiting lists would be decades longer.

@octaquan Did you use to cheer for the Sheriff of Nottingham when you read Robin Hood books as a child. What happened to you people in order for you to have such a warped view of the world. The Boogie man isn't real, however the men in suits that are stealing all the money as we speak, are real, and as yet not one arrest for the robbery of the world. Blaming it on the poor or the Labour party, will not help you in the long run. Twas the rich, that robbed you and your children.

@cornevans No not astute, just reflects the lack of intelligence that passes for Political wisdom, these days. The fact that the electorate considers themselves to be wealthy enough in order to vote for these right wing nutters, reflects badly upon them. If they understood 60% of the wealth is owned by 5% of the population then they may see that they ,nor their interests, are represented by this party. They drape themselves in populist Patrioticism whilst selling off OUR assets to Corporations.

THANKS, Boris, we now know where you stand. We have an unequal society, you want to make very rich people even richer by taking crumbs out of poor peoples mouths, whilst cutting the services to the public and creating more unemployment whilst getting the tax payers to pay for the privatisation of our Prisons, Schools and NHS and pay even more for our bills. All the while your party espouses balancing the deficit by borrowing 50% more than Labour and printing more money...Brilliant.

"Snowball's chance in Hades." *snicker*

[cornevans]

Boris is not funny; he is a nasty, clever, astute politician
