Ken, Boris and Brian, Sky News 8-9pm

Can Boris fumble anymore, or slalom some questions lol

Can Ken be anymore arrogant than he has been.

Can Brian look like the cool headed one of the bunch.....

Lets see.

Either way.... May 1st..... COME ON BORIS

I was listening to this on LBC last night. I think they are both in love with Brian the way they were going on.

Glad I don't live in London any more

Strange bunch.

Paddick hasn't got a snowball's and should go back to dishing out parking tickets.

Boris, yeah OK nice bloke and a bit of a character but not really fit to run one of the world's leading cities. Couldn't the Tories have selected someone sensible like Ken Clark for example?

I've always thought Livingstone was an unpleasant devious little s,hit which, sadly, is probably what's needed. But he seems to me to have almost resigned himself to coming second?

Boris to take it though........ dl

I think people have just settled for what a mayor should be.

An old lying selfish ignorant racist cronie.
First term he did ok, after that it all been bull****

Cant answer simple questions, each debate he has denied making comments at the last one, and starts to copy Boris's replies...

Paddick is the people's man, and will get a lot of support for that. However some of his policies will be his down fall.
Boris and Brian together would be interesting though.

It's going to be very very close between Ken and Boris - I wouldn't like to call it.

About time a start was made to rid this country of the lefty PC Plonkers who have too much power at the moment and are dragging us down into the weeds!

Piddick could be in with a shout as the number one alternative...not many Boris voters are going to pit Ken as thier second choice and vice versa.

personally I don't care who wins as long as that nutter is removed from power...does nobody remember him at the GLC?!?!

That would be the GLC that only 16% of Londonders wanted abolished when Thatcher decided she was going to punish them for daring to spend public money on public services?

As I've said before I think Londoners have a pretty poor choice of candidates, Livingston who's becoming increasingly out of touch and arrogant, but at least has administrative skills, and Johnson who is a baffoon of the highest order with absolutely no administrative experience whatsoever from what I can tell.

I'm like many hundreds of thousands of people that work in London but live outside, so have no say in who's in charge.

In the good people of London we trust. - Vote for the copper!!

That's why they're sucking up to Brian - to get his second preference votes.

I did like Livingstone offering Boris a job in city hall though.

The only skills Ken has as manipulation, bending of the truth, and selective deafness when it comes to listening to London.

Of course neither of the other 2 have the experience, but I sure as hell hope someone gets the chance to get some work experience.

As for Ken offering Boris the job, same tactic, different target to his release the other week about jobs for the ethnic minorities. Hoping people will "respect" him for it and see it as Mayor in waiting, and want to give Ken the chance to allow Boris to get the experience.

Ken has become very good at spending money, and so over confident and carried away that he refers to the £4 billion over the next few years as "HIS" money, stating they have given ME X to spend..... Errm NO Ken, they gave LONDON £4b !

As for his denial of ever saying he "conned" the government into hosting the Olympics so he would get extra money.... Says it one week, denys it the next.

Does not believe you should be allowed to stand for power more than twice, yet as the job and budget of the role rises, he doubles back on his feelings on the matter and stands again.

When it comes down to the bare bones, I want a good honest person at the helm.... Not a 2 faced consistant liar.
