# I like him.
I know little of his politics but I just think he's very funny. He's great whenever
he goes on Have I Got News for you.

# I was by no means saying I'd vote for him.
Just saying that I like him, or his public image at least.

Mayor was Frank Sartor (an unpleasant arsehole)

# I see.
But the Olympics went well regardless? I really don't think I can remeber it.
Was it Jonathon Edwards last one where he set the WR?

# dunno didn't watch it
after all the fuss of organisation, funding cuts to pay for it all, blah blah blah, i was fairly indifferent to the whole thing.

# Yeah alot of people are pissed off about it here
but I did my Geography project on Barcelona and the extent to which the
Olympics improved the city and I think if the same happens to London
it'll be the best thing to happen to the place since Christopher Wren
re-built it after the Great Fire.

# you'll be lucky
although we ended up with a couple of improved roads (I think they're tollways) and a fantastic, state of the art, sports stadium (fan-fucking-tastic). all while our rail system slips to a standard not seen since 1879, education is letting people leave school barely able to read, write and add, health systems let mothers miscarry in toilets...(ok, I'll stop my rant now...)
