Boris or Ken?
I know the London Mayoral election doesn't affect us much except that the winner of the election is the ambassador for our capital city.
So if you were in London who would you vote for and why?

Re: Boris or Ken?
Neither of them, i'd abstain from voting, Boris reminds me of a baby for some reason, he should be walking around in a huge nappy, he gives me the creeps

Re: Boris or Ken?
I did vote for Ken when I lived in London, though I really don't know if I would now, as he seems more than a little jaded..
Bumbling Boris is likable enough, but I don't really see him as a figure head for one of the world's most important metropolises.
Paddick would probably do a good job, but hasn't a hope of winning.

Re: Boris or Ken?
Personally I think either of them would make a bad President for when we ( HOPEFULLY ) give London independence from the UK

I think most Londoners will probably feel the same and it will almost be a case of voting for the least offensive rather than the best man for the job.

Re: Boris or Ken?
I think Boris' policies are the best for London as I see it from an outsider. I guess the people who actually live there know better though so Thursday will tell all!

Is this based on policy or that Boris is quite funny on certain Political tv game shows?

No I wouldn’t Roy, nor would I vote to elect Coco the Clown to be mayor of Accy.
