Did I mention you can vote the ******* out of office in 2004 ??
:-)

But in favour of whom? Someone who parrots central government
party
political dogma rather than *trying* (successfully or otherwise) to
do
something for London

And what was actually in his manifesto...

Too bloody right! He might have his failings but at least KL is a
Londoner who loves London and has a history of working for Londoners.
Of course, he's got some things wrong but at least his head and heart
are in the right place.

What's the realistic alternative? A mainstream career party
politician who sees the London Mayorship as a short-term stepping
stone on his way up the ladder? The day the London Mayor role becomes
just another rung on the Westminster ladder is the day it becomes
worthless.
