The BoJo Era Begins

Hard to get my head around the London mayoral election. Quite refreshing, in many ways, compared to US politics. It's a shock that a conservative won the election at all. Also surprising is that he's so pro-bicycle. Biggest contrast to US elections in recent years is that, despite being a conservative, he seems to be very much policy focused, rather than politics focused. Anyway, Ken was his own worst enemy, undone by hubris. We'll see how Boris does.
