...What is going on? I leave and two minutes later all hell's breaking loose! Seriously, tell me none of you actually voted for the clown? Dave, I don't want to single you out, more just make sure that you definitely didn't? Maybe being so far away I missed the subtleties of the campaign, and rather than being a right-wing, retarded, mentally unhinged Eton Old Boy, Boris is actually a man of the people with his finger on the pulse. Big Ken's a bit of a crook an'all, and the congestion charge and the price of the tube's a joke, but still, who'd have thought for a minute that the 21st century's Screaming Lord Such would beat him? I'm spewing, it's like it's going back to the '80s when Essex boy cab drivers from Chingford used to love Maggie and all the wonderful things she'd done for the country. And he's going to be in charge for the Olympics eh? Christ.
Can one of you shed any light? What's the theories? I'm at a loss, and I guess it is because I'm way over here.

firstly, and never forget this, people are idiots. Almost all of them.
it was pretty tight, but I think Ken suffered from a bit of anti-labour feeling that's brewing, coupled with the fact that he hasn't, you know, presented have I got news for you or anything. Actually, he might of, but he certainly wasn't nearly as funny as boris(At this rate, ricky gervais would have a good chance for prime minister). And yes, he may have been caught out shagging around a bit, and he did manage to offend the whole of liverpool in a way not known since the sun after hillsborough, but really, why would that worry any london voters? A bit of nookie and slagging off northerners is virtually a selling point. The Standard got right beind him (well, right against Ken actually, but the same difference) and apparently, whilst Ken retains affection within the centre of London, Boris was always more likely to appeal to those on the outskirts.
Does Shooter's Hill count as the outskirts?
