Gordon R Posted February 25 Report Share Posted February 25 Either he gave in to extremists threats to MPs or Keir Starmer's encouragement. Both explanations show him in a bad light. Decent man though he is, I believe Hoyle has to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also he is allowing the unions far too much slack and criticising the police at every opportunity despite being in charge of them. In truth he is in hock to the looney left for his support Edited February 25 by Vince Green Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newbie to this Posted February 25 Report Share Posted February 25 (edited) 1 hour ago, Vince Green said: Why do we need a mayor? It should be a ceremonial role rather than a dictatorship Because people were too thick to realise, it was always going to cost them money, and voted yes to a mayor. And it is still going on today, more government only means, more bureaucracy and money to pay for it. It was made clear, the mayor was going to have the power to raise funds. That only meant one thing, more tax, sorry charges. Perhaps Londoners should use the mayor's logic on referendums. I think the turnout was around 30%, and close. Edit - Just checked and it wasn't close. Around 70%, but was only a 34% turnout. Voter apathy strikes again.

After Maggie had got rid of the GLC, so sorting out Ken Livingstone, who then, after he had been elected as an MP, promptly became a thorn in the Labour leadership's side. Blair created the London Assembly and Mayor of London role to get Livingstone out of his hair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brace yourselves, Labour are coming again, and so is more devolution. Strange how this devolution only ends with more government and people on the tax payer's cheque, and never involves reducing central government.
