The position of Mayor should be abolished. It is an unnecessary layer of government and a complete waste of money - abolish Police commissioners while we are at it. on the one hand i agree with you. On the other hand, it is always entertaining watching a self-important git making a fool of himself. livingston, Boris, Sadiq

Well said that man! This is a accusation going back for over 80 years. Orwell famously said that a person from the British Intelligencia would rather steal from the poor box at church than stand up and sing the National Anthem.

In his day people supported the Spanish Republicans against the fascists and communism looked less corrupt than capitalism and Empire.

Try reading Homage to Catalonia which is Orwell's account of his Spanish civil war experiences you can see from that where he got his ideas for 1984. He fought with the communists but eventually realised they were controlled by Moscow and were more interested in defeating the other left parties than the fascists. They would rewrite history through propaganda so battles he fought in and lost to the fascists became victories and battles which were won but the communists took no part in became "their" victories. Anyway if your kids are studying 1984 or Animal Farm I would really recommend it.

I hear Lawrence Fox is going to stand. Complete waste of time of course. Still, perhaps it's more about the publicity. Funded entirely by Jeremy Hosking, our shareholder and fan. If he did get in we would have no excuse about planning permission. We can but dream.

Oh he'd be a million percent better than Khan.....then again a stuck pig would be a million percent better than Khan. It makes no difference though, Khan will win because essentially London isn't an English city anymore....which is how he got elected in the first place.
