Londoners seem set to choose Boris Johnson, pictured above with his father, as Mayor in preference to Ken Livingstone. We asked a well-known political pundit for an explaination; "I suppose that, in these times of economic hardship, having a bit of light comic relief is welcome. Boris scored particularly highly in the wake of the riots in London this year with his song and dance routine. It also nice to have a politician that hasn't got a clue what he's doing and doesn't try to hide it. Then there's the question of Boris replacing Cameron as leader of the Tory party - who would want to miss that? Everyone loves a bufoon and they don't get much more bufoonish than Boris,"
