London Mayor Election

[ComradeDavo]

On May 1st London's voters go to the poll's to select a new mayor. It's a high profile political spot and apparantly the race is close between the current mayor, Labour's Ken Livingston, and the Tories candidate Boris Johnson. So who does CFC back?

Here's a Q+A on London mayor - http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/7220411.stm

Ken. no great love for him but Boris is a cock

 

[brennan]

Ken.

If we make Boris Mayor then he won't be able to run for President...

 

[Longus]

Out of the two, it would have to be Ken Livingston for me as well. IMHO Boris Johnson is best relegated to Have I got News for You.

 

[Enkidu Warrior]

ABB. I'd have to go for Ken, much as I wouldn't want to stoke his ego.

 

[brennan]

Being serious for a second. I am quite happy to support the guy who brought in the Congestion Charge and Oystercards.

*creak*

...that was the sound of my Grandmother rolling in her grave btw.

Yeah, I'd like someone who would continue Kens overall agreeable policies without being the man himself - he's been in power a mite too long and is starting to confuse whats best for London with whats best for Ken in my opinion...

I don't care about neither conservative party, so I'd vote for the green one as a point of view.

 

[Godwynn]

Liberal Democrats!

 

[JerichoHill]

Isn't Ken a little ****oo? If so, then keep him in for this American Bloke, because he's entertaining

 

[amadeus]

Anybody but Ken.

Red Ken makes me laugh

Ken Livingston's kinda lost the plot a bit, especially in relation to crime. He seems to have run out of ideas. The Lib Dem candidate is a former police chief (dunno what exactly he was...), and is also a Lib Dem, which is a good thing. I think if people weren't so lineated down party lines, and so abruptly dismissal of the Lib Dems, Paddick would win hands down.

I hope I can still register to vote........

BORIS! BORIS! BORIS!

I love blithering buffoons.

 

[jessiecat]

Wait till you see Boris!

Ken has started wasting public money on expensive junkets, including for ultra-fascist islamic representatives. People who, for example, claim that Israeli civilians are neither innocent nor civilians and deserved to die.
Ken has said that 'we must smash the zionist lobby'.
I'd go for someone else, were I in London.

I'm sure Boris would tackle crime head on...

I'm backing McCain, he's the right man at the right time.
