Good old Boris

A man who speaks his mind, and isn't a self-serving, smarmy faceless, career politician.

Go Boris...

Johnson wins London mayoral race

Post by jdaw1 »

Yes.
The BBC, in a story entitled [url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/politics/7380947.stm]Johnson wins London mayoral race[/url], wrote:Boris Johnson has won the race to become the next mayor of London - ending Ken Livingstone's eight-year reign at City Hall.

The Conservative candidate won with 1,168,738 first and second preference votes, compared with Mr Livingstone's 1,028,966 on a record turnout of 45%.

He paid tribute to Mr Livingstone and appeared to offer him a possible role in his new administration.

Lib Dem Brian Paddick came third and the Greens' Sian Berry came fourth.
