In his continued quest to be all things to all people, the Mayor has come out the side of the crooked in the Standard:
“What I feel … this is going to get me into trouble, but I do feel a certain amount of sympathy with all these poor MPs who end up thinking they are having some jovial lunch in which they are hysterically exaggerating their ability to do things. As if an MP would tell you whether he is actually any use or knows anyone or if there is any point in his existence, honestly.”
Hmmm…
He also dealt with a little person-al matter at his 2020 Vision launch earlier. In his own special way. Discussing the fact that London’s population has risen by at least 380,000 since he took over, the Mayor added “no thanks to me”.
He also quipped that he would not be the one to cut the ribbon on Crossrail 2 as Mayor, “or anything else”.
Cue hilarity in the room…
