| Tories claim victory for Boris Johnson |
| 2008-05-02 |
| PLEASE get Red Ken the hell out of there. What a nightmare he is -- apologist and supporter of all that drives towards Londonistan The Conservatives were increasingly confident this afternoon that massive Tory gains in local elections across England and Wales would be capped this evening by victory for Boris Johnson, their colourful candidate for London Mayor. With the outcome of the London vote due by 10pm, David Cameron's party was already celebrating a 44-per cent share of the vote nationwide. Labour, on 24 per cent, were pushed into third place behind the Liberal Democrats on 25 per cent, losing more than 300 council seats across England and Wales. It was Labour's worst performance since the 1960s and a humiliation for Gordon Brown on his first proper electoral test as Prime Minister. |
