Boris is neither happy with PR or with Nick Clegg

Boris is not very happy about Gordon's conversation to PR or Nick Clegg for that matter.

Writing in the Telegraph this morning,London's Mayor he says of the Lib Dem leader

With his purple ties, his neat grey suits and his air of youthful earnestness he's like some cut-price edition of David Cameron hastily knocked off by a Shanghai sweatshop to satisfy unexpected market demand. I open the papers to find him consulted daily, like some oracle, about every problem from the Taliban to babies crying in the night – and in both cases, incidentally, he adopts the classic Lib Dem position of simultaneously favouring intervention and leaving well alone.

As for proportional representation,which Gordon Brown is danglin in fornt of the Lib Dem leader

It is, of course, bare-faced cheek from Gordon to suggest that we should change the voting system just as the country is about to use that system to eject him from office. It is positively Mugabe-esque. And it is exactly the opposite of what parliament and politics need. The great expenses scandal has shown what happens when you allow the party machines to stitch things up in their own interests. Why on earth should we respond to that crisis by adopting PR? Under any version of PR there is a list system that transfers the power to pick MPs away from the people and towards the party machines.
