Vote Ken get Gordon!


A vote for Ken is a vote for Labour and Gordon Brown!

Sky.Com: Coments - Boris is not a Buffoon

Boris is a very successful politician. I would like to see any of the critics who claim that he is a bufoon or an incompetent work with the same tireless ambition that he has demonstrated over the last few years. Not only was he an MP (by no means an easy job) but he was also a member of the shadow cabinet. Whatever you think of the conservatives they are not in the habit of promoting people with no intelligence. During that time he was also editor of the Spectator. So he effectively held down two very high powered jobs simultaneously. I challenge anyone to attempt and achieve that and still call him a buffoon.And Boris has been out on the campaign trail for weeks now, doing interviews, blogging, meeting the public and holding 2 or 3 hustings a day. Again this takes not only dedication but also great intelligence.It is time for change. Let's get rid of Ken's croneyism. Let's get rid of Labour's incompetence. Back Boris on Thursday!

Why I lose my temper with those who trivialise racism

This evening we had a fantastic evening walk about with Boris in Sloane Square. It was great to see the big man engaging with so many members of the public.
I must admit that I did lose my temper completely with a young man who started baiting me when I stayed on afterwards at the tube station to hand out leaflets. He was sitting on the fence, waiting for someone and started calling out "He's a racist" everytime I was handing out a leaflet. He kept on saying this. Now I think had he done this once or twice I would have just asked him if he had read the article and told his to stop trivialising racism. He was of course a white middle class, presumably lefty, who in absence of any decent political points to make just decided to call Boris a racist. After a few more provocations I walked up to him and started shouting at him, "how dare he trivialise racism. Did he understand what a terribe thing racism was and not something to be thrown about lightly by some idiot. Had he read the article, did he understand the context, did he understand what satire was? Racism is a horrible thing and Boris is no racist". It caused quite a gathering for a moment or two. Then of course he ran away, I believe he called me Mr Hitler as his parting gesture. He was probably not worth the energy. But it just infuriates me, as someone who is brown, who has experienced racism growing up in Liverpool during the 80s. Let's defeat racism, let's go after those people who preach hate and want to stir up racist sentiment, but never seek to trivialise it to make a cheap political point.
