The trouble with boris, heads up ch4 now

[69 coupe]

As a bit of a fan, i'll be interested to watch this.

[Getragdogleg]

seems to be anti Boris so far. I suspect some figure manipulation regarding the bendy busses.

might watch the rest, might not, depends on how anti Boris it all gets and how biased the programme is.

So far it's like the show was paid for by Red Ken.

I wouldn't be surprised if the narrator is one of the very left tree hugging swingometers.

It's quite laughably bad so far.

I think the point is that he is saying one thing and doing another and sometimes his actions seem to contradict his intentions...

That's about it, big deal - all politicians are the same whatever party - get rid of the lot of them!

[turbobloke]

The trouble with Boris is that he beat Red Ken, is doing a good job, hasn't committed any gaffes for a while, and will probably get re-elected. Time for the hatchet job then

[NiceCupOfTea]

Hatchet job

[Twit]

I think he is well contained at the moment...

To be honest I doubt those of us who live in or are in the city every have noticed any change since Livingstone left and Boris came in, I know I haven't.

Why is Austin Powers making documentaries?

Incidentally, at least Boris got rid of his advisors when they made unacceptable mistakes, I suppose they'd rather he kept them on and tucked them away like the previous administration?

[paddyhasneeds]

I can't quite work this out so far - it does seem to be more a case of "I hate Boris and C4 have given me an hour to say why" than it is anything substantive about him?

Might as well ask me to do a slot about Earth Hour.

Please.

Hahahhahaah, they're trying to diss him now for getting rid of that muppet Ian Blair!

FFS, the guy was a liability!

Boris should get a medal for that.

Hatchet job, full of insinuation, but completely unable so far to come up with something substantive. Atrocious journalism, but treading a careful line on the edge of libel.

Could be worth complaining about - trawling round people who are pissed off that the Red Ken gravy train has been derailed, and others surprised that policies can change under a new leader is hardly balanced reporting.

I've noticed that the congestion zone isn't in danger of being extended out to Wales yet, which at one stage with Red Ken at the helm didn't look unlikely.

Indeed.
Their lawyers will have been over it like a rash.

And now Keith "fingers in the till" Vaz being brought as a "witness"

[turbobloke]

Keith Vaz...witness...
