    I couldn't give a fuck about politics really but when he knocks over Japanese kids...thats what i like.
  • I must admit I love his creation, the New Routemaster. So much more stylish than other buses.
  • On this site so so so so predictable.....

    Anyone who can win the vote twice in such a massively Labour supporting area such as London gets a thumbs up from me

    Lets see if we can get a whole sentence that includes Nasty Tory, Right Wing, Eton, posh boy, austerity, clown, buffoon

    Otherwise points 4,14 and 22 sum it up for me

    Anyone? That's not particularly discerning.

    The last London mayoral election was in 2012, at which point the most recent general election voting had shown just a couple of percentage points difference between number of votes cast for Labour and the Tories in London. So hardly a huge wave of anti-tory sentiment that Boris defeated.

    As regards to points 4, 14 and 22. That would put the mayor of London's best assets as i) not being Red Ken, ii) not being Labour and iii) being an annoyance to many. I wouldn't say they were ringing endorsements.

    Can you imagine the furor if the mayor of Tokyo came to London and flattened a small child? The man's an embarrassment.

    I can understand why people are amused by his very cleverly crafted on camera buffoonery and comic interventions. Personally I stopped finding that amusing a few years ago now.

    I suspect however underneath the buffoonery is a really unpleasant individual.

    He's a politician, they are all twats on top and underneath.

    We haven't seen what he is best at yet.
    He will be the PM after Cameron - which is why Labour have elected their own buffoon in advance.

  • Great self publicist. Boris bikes, Boris island. Very astute manouvrer. Will he beat George to be next Tory leader ? I wouldn't bet against it.

    London is the capital of the world. Unfortunately this twat always spoils it all. That said, he managed to piss off black cabs so not all bad.

  • Remember that time when the oaf was left dangling from a harness - rather a pity it wasn't a noose !!

    Utter chump ....

    I think the guy is a grade A embarrassment.

    Would you think I'm a leftie? Would you not think it's possible for conservative supporters to think he is a prick?

    Do you get paid every time you say the word leftie ?

    Yep - I get paid £1 for every time I say leftie in this thread.

    So far - I have earned £1. Not a very profitable job.

    This is it, at best he is an amusing bumbling shabby haired village idiot. Who has the cunning to have manoeuvred himself into a high profile role as mayor of the capital.

    Like I said before I ain't buying this loveable buffoon stuff. He is a corrupt, conniving posh boy who inject AIDS into a family member and giggle about it if he thought it gave him an opportunity.

    He is cunning, conniving and clever, this isn't unique in politicians by the nature of what they do its part of the job for them. That is why they are all, barring a very, very small minority impossible to trust.

    I'm pretty apathetic towards politicians but I know how the world works. Boris Johnson is fine as a stooge for a job like mayor of London he gives good soundbites and rugby tackles germans and we all love him. When he's trying to stick an airport in kent marshland or flogging off taxpayer funded assets to west ham he's as dirty as the next one
