Just read the Indy’s editorial today. It names who would get its 1st and 2nd preference in the mayoral contest (http://www.independent.co.uk/opinion/leading-articles/leading-article-if-newspapers-had-a-vote-this-one-would-put-its-cross-beside-818670.html).
Good. I am pleased. Now I don’t have to bother buying it any more in the mistaken belief that at least it backed the LibDems.
Yes, but neither did it back Ken or Boris for 1st preference vote.
Johann Hari let himself down by not mentioning Paddick in his article on Tuesday. Though he did strike some solid blows against Boris. But apparently all the idiots will support him because he’s a celeb. They might have four long years in which to regret that.
