Transport was Ken’s strongest subject – and it’s clearly Boris’s weakest.
It seems clearer as more comes out from the ‘mist which is mayoral policy’ that there is no strategy for transport.

It seems evidently clear the only strategy that ever existed was the two ideas of removing the WEZ and removing the bendy buses (I don’t count the routemaster rebirth as it’s simply a dream) – which were merely policies of convenience as they were 2 (or really 1) issue which Ken stood for against the will of the people.

It’s ironic that removing the bendy buses looks like the only policy that will ever be fulfilled – I very much doubt the WEZ will be removed – and wasn’t Boris against raising the C-Charge during the election?

The removal of the bendies has cost Londoners in their pockets with increased fares.

Promises, promises, promises – and not one will come true.

I very much doubt any new transport policies will be introduced for the remainder of the Boris term as he will be very busy trying to stop the Olympics being the shambles it’s heading for (Can’t wait to see those athletes arriving late because they were stuck in traffic – I shall take my car out especially!)

I would take a lot of enjoyment in Boris’s downfall, but unfortunately it’s the people who will suffer for his idiocy. I have also noticed the pattern pointed out here about ‘NMP’ – next mayor’s problem – because all the difficult issues are being moved along.

No wonder Boris isn’t running a second time – I suppose he will claim he retires with 1 win and no defeats – you know how he likes to talk things up in his favour.

I must also say I am a fan of Jenny Jones, she is very good at quietly pointing out the elephant sized holes in Boris’s waffle – I think other assembly members have given up as they were finding it frustrating.

Lucky I invested in a new bike last week and it should arrive soon – I’m sure Boris will count me as a ‘new cyclist’ – even though I have been doing it for 4 years now – and of course put it all down to his policies.

All he has done is ensured the few ‘freezing days’ of the year when I took the tube will be even less now as I am not prepared to pay for his lack of budget control.

I’m still amazed Dave didn’t mention Jennette once, though.

I was indeed in a Dentist’s waiting room, and frankly the most amazing thing was watching a couple of 15 year old lads who, had you asked them before, would have told you politicians were all in it for themselves, watch in shock and admiration as London’s Mayor got eviscerated by Jennette Arnold live on my phone.

“Yo, she is SICK! SICK BLOOD!”
