Yes, it is elitist - it doesn't allow any pandering to dangerous, idiotic Tory toffs from Henley who perchance may ruin London! who may ruin London, we know Ken already has ;D In what way has Ken ruined London? The transport system seems much better off, the congestion charge has allowed much needed maintenance on London's roads as well as reducing traffic and encouraging people to use public transport/walk. I know you're not happy about having to pay an extra few quid a year in your council tax for the Olympics, but that will lead the the regneration of East London (the money's not just going towards the stadiums), which in turn will improve the London economy, attract new investors, sponsership for the new areas, new business opportunities, more jobs and would most likely lead to a decrease in the future. And you want to throw all that away because of some wacky C*nt who was slightly entertaining on Have I Got News For You?

So Kens not elitist when he ignores the majority and looks after the minorities - whils they should have air space it should not be to the detriment of everyone else. Also he's not liked by the labour party as he's a known lose cannon who only really has his own agenda at heart. Not my words Julio but those of Nick Rainsford a close family friend. Mother lets any old sort in the house you know! ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) The majority don't need the support or highlighting of causes that minorities need, but I know we can't/won't see the world through each others' eyes matey ![:-/](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/undecided.png) Oh I know, but what you don't realise Hurls is however much people inside the Labour Party infight and backbite, at the end of the day we'll support our candidates - because at the end of the day, blood is thicker than water, if you take my meaning! ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) Nice to know your Mum keeps good company! ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png)

ask the majority of people who live in the congestion zone if they like having to pay to get to their homes. Ask all the shop and business owners what they think. And now with the expansion i'm only 10 miles away ![>:(](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/angry.png)

Surely the majority of people neither need nor want special help?! ![:-/](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/undecided.png) He's a mayor for communities, not individuals anyway, that would be a fair way of making your point I suppose... Boris won't be great because I trust the people of London as a whole not to be stupid enough to fall for his bogus bumbling charm or to place their vote for him! (Would you be invited to those parties then Hurls?! Doing better than I realised, need a friend?! ;D ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) )

I can think of only one reason to vote for Boris - it'd show why Tories should not be trusted with power ever again
