I was very relieved when t'other chap wasn't elected - Boris is often the best show on telly!
Are you a Londoner? I think what we Londoners need is someone who has a real vision of a London that works well for as many of it's citizens as possible, not a bolt hole for the rich. Over half of us were not happy with his election. I am fed up with people telling me that Boris is just so much funnier and more entertaining than Ken. So what?
Not sure about the video, however. Boris, without help, appears as an amusing, kindly and genial buffoon, a cleverly studied performance he plays up to the hilt, I reckon, that I am thoroughly fed up with after one term of office, now faced with putting up with it for another. With the help of a bit (or a lot) of cutting and editing, this cheery, friendly buffoon effect is multiplied to nauseous proportions. I know it's taking the p***s out of him, but I'd prefer it done without having to look at him or hear his overly eager, plummy voice, anymore, thankyou. Excuse me while I and go and stick pins in a picture of him, then burn it on my barbecue.
