Just discovered that it's election day in London today. British politics fascinates me, and the BBC is running an online special.:speakcool:
Anyway, who are the Brits on here supporting in the election?
Ken, who seems to have some fairly solid ideas - but is a bit of an unpopular one with some of his policies (congestion charging?)
Boris, who enjoys a lot of support, but his buffoon act could cost him votes.
(yes there are some others too, but i have no idea who they are, and they're not likely to win anyway )
I'd have voted for Boris, I think he's one of the most intelligent people I know. Certainally one of the most intelligent in politics, and his shambling around seems to get him a fair bit of support from the young people. Britain could sorely do with a few intelligent people in charge, IMO. Boris is probably much better suited to this role than a cabinet member in a conservative government. Somehow I just can't see foreign leaders respecting him that much...
