Maybe he did. Sadly he also cared rather a lot about Ken and his, frankly, cronies. He was far, far, far too dirty personally and lied far too much for me to even entertain putting an 'X' beside his name.
In other news here's the results from Tower Hamlets:
Boris Johnson: 20%
Brian Paddick: 5%
Jenny Jones: 5%
Siobhan Benita: 5%
Ken Livingstone: 105%
Turn out: 140%.
Electoral commission inform that the vote was conducted fairly and impartially and the officer ended his report asking if he could have his kids back now.
