[#443445]

was a fair to middling character assassination of the loveable buffoon

he obviously is sacrificing public transport and green issues in favour of business and his torrygraph cronies but more or less corrupt than ken?

I prefer the first set of policies over the 2nd, so the question is sort of irrelevent, at least to me!

well id argue that in the long term the first will affect the second
apparently london is now the most polluted city in europe and borris has.....

cut 3 million+ from cycle schemes
reversed the congestion charge in west london; 30 000 extra cars a day
stopped higher charges for more polluting vehicles
stopped the planned no emission zone for the centre of london
decreased pedestrian crossing times at traffic lights in favour of cars
spent lots of cash on his mystery routemaster replacement but not actually done anything yet
