Why is it that the BNP supporters believe don't lie? All politicians lie to get elected except for the BNP eh? It's not at all historic since he did lie, and as with all politicians, they all would claim they did not lie.

The BNP lied about the Mega-Mosque, They have lied about Asian Gangs, I could go on but we have gone over this so many times before it's simply not worth it.

In what way did they lie about any of the above and where is your proof?

Boris will bring London to it's knees within 3 years but as has been mentioned it will be a laugh along the way and a big laugh it will be.

He can't be as bad as Red Ken.

A question to Ken Livingstone.

You claim to support an integrated and tolerant (respected) multi-cultural London society.
Please justify your claim having given support for the construction of the largest mosque in Christendom whilst denying the construction of a church for local Christian communities.
So much for your respect of the democratic right of conscience and expression when transgressing your bias of secular progression; in particular your anti-Christian angst. Such bigotry denies your candidacy.

OK - we give in - where did you cut and paste the question from?

At least have the courtesy to show a link.

Because the style and structure of the question is radically different from your previous posts.

It was concise, lucid, grammatically and syntaxically correct, and precisely punctuated - not common characteristics of your postings.

Of course Tories know nothing of cronyism and jobs for the boys do they. I don't think Ken did a bad job, especially during trying times of terrorist attacks, from what I heard Boris couldn't make the podium with out stumbling, lets hope it isn't an omen

Delighted red Ken has gone he who caused thousands of businesses to suffer huge losses due to congestion charge while himself riding around in taxis. Just one of many reasons why London should be thankful. Boris has to prove he is up to the job firstly by tackling crime. Make London safe again. As a London girl who moved to Berkshire for a better quality of life, l hope London will give the man a chance! London Pride thats we need back and safety on the streets.

Of course they do - I've never said that politicians of any persuasion are perfect, quite the reverse in fact.

You've actually highlighted one of the reasons why I still haven't decided who I'll be voting for at the next election - none inspire me with great confidence right now.

However, in removing a truly odious little dictator from his grand palace, the electorate have shown they're waking up and have served notice that nobody is now safe. If that was all this election could be about it'd have been worth it and that should put the reigns on the sort of dodgy deallings and spin New/Old/NearlyNew/SameOld Labour had, under Bliar, come to believe they could get away with ad infinitum.

If all we get out of the next election is a new government who are under massive scrutiny and therefore try a bit harder that'll be enough justification to have got shot of Brown and his useless cohorts. We know what they're about and giving them another mandate by default would be the worst possible message to send them and would simply be rewarded with yet more lies, spin, dithering and ineptitude.

How bad a job Ken did or didn't do will no doubt become clearer with the results of the various enquiries and revelations which will follow his tenure. Yes he did do some good things but for me he was little more than London's Derek Hatton and will probably emulate his socialist soulmate with a lucrative career in the media, writing books and public speaking.

Oh and as I write I'm hearing Brown making yet more excuses for the massive mess he's created and claiming the election results were all about their failure to adequately get across their message. Yet more self-denial from a man who should serve as the dictionary definition of that term! It isn't the message which is to blame it's his policy and abject failure to govern!

What would they have prefered, for him to use the chauffeur driven limo he was entitled to, people really should think before opening their mouths.
