Looks like we’ve got him now though…

I have little knowledge of his political agenda, though I suspect it may involve compulsory elephant traps on all public roads. I'd vote KL, just for the sheer visceral thrill of it. He annoys too many arseholes not to vote for him. Not sound reasoning, but then, that's not exactly my strong point........ I like Boris, the floppy fat fop.

I am intrigued to see how the Greens will do though since so many people are coming out as supporters. Hoops - that Guardian article doesn't hold back does it?! Pity its not in the Mail though...

Greens first Ken second. Although no way are the Green Party ever going to win power, you can safely vote for them for exactly that reason. No they won't have a clue what to do about the economy but it doesn't matter because they'll never have to deal with it. At the same time green issues get put on the agenda (I think the election for London Assembly member in particular can actually make a difference here) and, as with Ken, there's a chance that some housing will be built in London which is within the financial reach of those of us on less than £100,000 a year. By the way check out the hugely biased anti-Boris rant in today's Guardian: http://www.guardian.co.uk/politics/2008/may/01/boris.livingstone. Power to the people! I go along with BLTP.

Anything, anything, to stop Boris. But I'm tired of voting 'strategically' to keep the Torys out. Not sure about the Greens. Although their policies are ok, I used to work with one of their 'keen' party members who was such a fruit-loop I haven't been able to take them seriously since. Oh, I am definitely voting.

Boris is posh toff who will f**k us over, Ken seems to have given up, paddick seems rude and aloof and he's parties policies have been stolen by the other 2. So how about first Greens second Ken. We should all vote we don't want the BNP getting in. But it's not straight forward. I started wrting a post about this but couldn’t come to a decision.
