Have been on the campaign trail for Boris Johnson for the past few months. Such a mix of responses - from the incredibly rude and pushy to the most enthusiastic can't wait to get rid of Ken. I am counting on all my new blogger acquaintances to get out and vote for Boris for London Mayor 1 May.
If you have time to campaign or just want to sign your support for him he has a website — backboris.com. The Evening Standard are also having a debate on the 31 March at Cadogan Hall with Ken Livingstone, Brian Paddick and Boris Johnson. I have been to a couple of these debates already and Boris is always good entertainment but more important he has some great ideas for London and all he needs is the backing.
I also believe it is time we emptied the halls of City Hall of people who waste money and seem to feel that they deserve the same gravy train that the MEP's are on.
The biggest complaint I hear about Boris is that he is a buffoon. I have to say that he is a very intelligent and thinking man if you bother to listen. And what is wrong with laughter.
I will be out there in the next few weeks and will start blogging more and keeping it up to date with the trail.

How is this for needing ID cards? Doh
I am seeing more and more each day what a totalitarian country the men in beards and skirts are causing it to become. Yesterday I went down the street and was captured on maybe 15 CCTV cameras. It is a five minute walk to the station down the Whitechapel Road. I then travel on the tube to the library and someone asks to check my travel card and also checks my photo. Arriving at the British Library I have my bag checked. ID cards. I don't think so.
If the Government were more in control of the laws in place and spent more time taking care of domestic business i.e.: education, healthcare, law and order and immigration we would not need so many checks and cameras spying on us. Even with all the cameras they usually have their hands tied and can't arrest anyway.
I live in the lawless council of Tower Hamlets and between the Council and legal dragging their feet — it took 18 months to get a crack house full of hookers, pimps and drug dealers closed. On top of that we see everyday drug dealers dealing outside our our flats and then spend the next 2-3 hours chasing druggies out of the stairwells. When we do call the police they never arrest them anyway. We pay the taxes and then are expected to do the job.
I wish Brown like before him the mighty Bliar would stop trying to save the world until after he sorts out the mess in Great Britain not to mention the chaos in his own backyard the city of London.
Blair and Brown's "Legacy" will be chaos at home, war and misery. Soon they will have a multicultural society with a difference the only people not included will be the English and that is because they will have fled.

Playing around with posting pics
If any of you go onto my blog site and wonder what is going on, please don't be alarmed. I have been practising uploading pictures onto the blog and I haven't yet worked out how to delete the pics. I also have wonderful news about feteaccompli. It is posting as I blog away. The site is now fete-accompli. I don't know what the glitch was with the original but all is going swimmingly. Will get back to my uploading and deleting of pics.
Cheers

Now I am really grumpy
Sorry chaps and chapesses but I have asked for help with feteaccompli and got not a response. It is still not up and running. If this is what happens in bloggerland I am about to give it up. I know my last two blogs were quite boring but absolute silence is also too boring. So if I hear nothing in the next couple days I'm gone.
Very grumpy

Not smug quite yet
Still haven't been able to get feteaccompli up with it's next posting. I am completely at a loss as which way to go next. Still trying.
Had an interesting day at the British Library. After my usual stint in the reading room I was approached by a man who wanted to test me on the understanding of those warning pamphlets you get inside the box with perscription medicine. I am rarely if ever involved in consumer research or poll, but thought here's my chance. It was dead easy and not only that I was paid £10 for my trouble.
Nice end to the day of researching.
Now on to the mystery of feteaccompli and the inability to post.
Bye.
