I suspect that he didn't actually want to run for Mayor, but was pressured into it by the tory leadership, who desperately need a Ken-beater.

Maybe we should find out what his views are on congestion charging for bikes before we get too excited.

Boris...

What a guy - his "hilariously incompetent buffoon" act is just superb, but he's actually quite a serious bloke.

My POV entirely. It's not like he could be worse than Red Ken and regardless of what he does should he get into power, you can guarantee he will be absolutely hilarious. My girlfriend hates conservatism with a passion, but thinks Boris is superb.
