Boris Johnson, the 'successor' to Ken Livingstone in the name of London, will FAIL as Livingstone if Johnson does not show he is NOT another liar

How could Johnson possibly unravel? And do so faster than his 'advisers' and himself, may think?

This may happen by Johnson not realising - and by his not behaving in accordance with that unimplemented realisation - that his 'team' as he has appointed so far, does not constitute a democratic, ethical, accountable improvement at all on what Ken Livingstone had created....

I shall show how Boris Johnson has got things wrong so far . I have already said that Johnson is guilty of a major mistake in attacking the Scottish people.

As I have said on hundreds of occasions before, it is not acceptable for anyone doing 'political representation' in the name of the people of London to attack another people. Especially not the Scottish people., In context. I shall return to the Johnson wrong over Scotland in a late part.

I begin this by looking at Patience Wheatcroft. I shall examine her in a number of parts in this commentary.

Patience Wheatcroft has shown, so far, that she is an alien. To London. And to the idea of accountability.

Contrary to the image that she is involved in promoting for herself and for Boris Johnson, her ‘boss’. I note for the record and as evidence the point she is making so far about not being paid [and also in not being interested in being paid] for her job at Boris Johnson's Onion!

It is like being back in the era of John Major and dealing with or trying to deal with the utter, total, complete ignorance of the majority of his cabinet. Typified by two in context. One Peter Lilley, who defied his notoriety as one of Major’s bastards and behaved like he was officially in an officially Tory Government but he believed in the bankrupt ‘ideals and values’ that the Neil Kinnock Party ‘gloried in and exhibited’.

The other was Gillian Shepherd. The so-called Education Secretary.
She was the nearest example in John Major’s UK administration that resembled the corrupt, the immoral and the bankrupt policies exhibited by Ken Livingstone at the Ghastly Livingstone Confection [the GLC] or the Greedy Lying Conurbation during the 3rd, the 4th, the 5th and the 6th year of the decade of the 1980s when Thatcher was allegedly dismantling the GLC.

‘Value for money’ , the phrase that Wheatcroft kept uttering as she spoke to Tim Donovan on the BBC TV programme ‘the Politics Show’ [London segment, broadcast on Sunday 8 June 2008] is total, utter and complete rubbish if it is the main ‘concept’ that defines and determines conduct of the holders of public office as far as the money available to the operation of the ‘mayor’ in the name of London.

And Tim Donavan [the BBC TV London political editor] let himself down by not going over the key failures of the Lyingstill Livingstone's maladministration.

For without that checklist - although even the Donovan list was far from complete when articulated in the months before 1 May 2008 - the people who watched that edition on 8 June 2008 would not know the NEW SITUATION.

There ha got to be a political perspectives and sufficient political context shown in the BBC’s packaging and the presenting of events...

And the less said about John Biggs the better!

Strangely, there is nothing to John Biggs. Politically. Ethically. Democratically. Not as far as his being in the political office is anything to go by.

He is politically as empty as he is amoral.

What is the point of John Biggs in a political office?
