Comments on: What’s Boris learnt so far? Rubbish! http://www.boriswatch.co.uk/2008/06/07/whats-boris-learnt-so-far-rubbish/ An attempt to enhance the accountability of the new London mayoralty Thu, 18 Mar 2010 17:37:40 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.1 hourly 1 By: Carol http://www.boriswatch.co.uk/2008/06/07/whats-boris-learnt-so-far-rubbish/comment-page-1/#comment-501 Carol Sat, 07 Jun 2008 12:43:20 +0000 http://www.boriswatch.co.uk/2008/06/07/whats-boris-learnt-so-far-rubbish/#comment-501 Ugh. That was painful to watch and I can understand why Boris Johnson is not keen to meet with the public to discuss what he is doing to improve the city. He just doesn't have a handle on any facts and is bereft of any ideas. I can hear the hissing of hot air escaping from his campaign! The fact that he is admitting that the bendy buses are needed to handle mass transit at peak hours when he promised Londoners they would be phased out . I have no problem with the bendy buses, as a mother with a disabled child who rides in a wheel chair I have found them to be very comfortable and easy to get on and off. I have to say I really am enjoying the unravelling of the mayor. Cretin. Ugh.

Did Boris really not notice any of that whilst an MP? The answer I guess is "yes", but that does say something about how much attention he really gives to his different jobs...
