Everyone who lives in London will suffer now. If our current system always ends up choosing clowns what's the alternative? Maybe everyone is too complacent so they chose Boris cos they got confused and thought they were voting for 'The Apprentice' or UK's eurovision contender, or some such. Yeah, I like this idea, maybe people too often for clowns on TV programmes, big brother, stars in their eyes, xfactor, america's next top model etc. and now they go for charisma and whether they *feel* someone 'means well'. Basically, the only way people will take voting seriously again, if ever they do, is when things are really shit and they hurt personally. So maybe we need Boris to fuck things up bad so we can take voting seriously again.
