Scary Thoughts

[hmmm_tea]

So, I finding it a scary thought that someone might actually want to vote for Boris Johnson tomorrow. A man who, let's face it, actively goes out of his way to appear a complete idiot.

However, an email from the Guardian today has found an even scarier thought, with this quote from Joan Ryan, MP for Enfield North:

"All the way though we've been warning people 'Boris isn't wearing any clothes' and only now are voters coming to us and saying, 'oh my goddddd, he's not wearing any clothes... and it's disgussssting'".

So, thanks to the Joan Ryan and the Guardian, I've now got an image of Boris Johnson naked in my head. I don't want it, so I thought I'd share it. Isn't it a lovely thought?

...What do you mean "no"?

Given the choice of voting for him or seeing him naked, I would like to say I'd martyr myself for the sake of the population of London, but I'm not sure I could face seeing it.

Luckily I don't have to, so tomorrow I can enjoy both not voting for him and not seeing him naked.

I'll probably vote Livingstone/Berry in that order.

Livingstone, does seem to be doing a reasonable job as mayor and stands the best chance of keeping Boris out.

Hmmm, Boris, naked, lighting a torch. His hair will go up in flames. It will be an excellent farce?

Well, I expect someone will help him. Does he hold mummy's hand to cross the road?

It doesn't matter to me if Boris is naked, because I can't quite get it into my head that he is grown up. Apparently, Boris is all for bendy buses, even though they are very bad for cyclists. Whereas Ken was the person who originally made sure that London transport was subsidised, therefore, affordable. However, as I haven't lived in London for nearly 8 years, I don't care any more...

I think Boris is planning to get rid of the bendy buses and replace them with routemasters, but hasn't allowed enough budget to actually run them.

I only get my information from the Private Eye, and then I don't read half of the 'proper' bits. Are these Routemasters the old-type, or much bigger?

I think there's only one sort of Routemaster, big old buses that pump out masses of polution, but I'm no expert on buses.

If I remember, the routemasters were scrapped in order to have wheelchair and buggy friendly buses, but I'd already lost touch by then.
