Boris Johnson

Fantastic.

I can't wait to hear boris speak at the conference in a few weeks! :-)

oh and henley misses you!

what a good sport

alert alert... not really funny are ya joe.

Boris... do the right thing and Axe the whole congestion charge... it should never have been introduced in the first place...

woo hoo - finally, after Ken completely ignored those that live in or just outside the zone. Thanks so much Boris!

Get rid of it all, fuck the bendy busses off, ban all cyclists from the road cos they are all a fucking nightmare, make motorbikes pay a cc because they cause congestion also dont care what any1 thinks they do because they take up room! At the end of the day having a CC wont stop people driving in because the tube system we have is overcrowed, overexpensive and full of smelly people! y would i want to travel into work everyday with my face stuck under some dirty scummers armpit?

Good lord, some of the comments on this thread are biblically idiotic. Foul language and ^ Nick Allen, all I can say is it's a good job you aren't in politics. Stick to your day job.

Awesome news!

I'm gonna ask boris for the right for cyclists to bear arms so we can shoot moron drivers who get in our way in the congestion in london. people wanna go BACK to lower road speeds than horses in victorian london? morons.

You are the best mayor London ever had, well... Maybe. You are certainly the most interesting. Boris for Prime Minister.

Wooohooo the West is Back and it will be FREE!!!

Can you start rephasing the traffic lights so you get more than 10 seconds of green on South Ealing Road as well please?

how about you sort out the traffic in central boris, its a joke!

goooo boris!

london is the capital, ergo london is always going to be crowded and congested. especially as it has grown organically, and not planned out with wide streets

next, tax and insurance for cyclists please!

Re-widen the roads, get rid of speed humps that cause pollution by ensuring drivers stay in 2nd gear, review traffic light phasing

someone deleted my comment calling you a HYPOCRITE? Promoting bikes at the Skyride event then removing the Western congestion charge. Are you confused about what London really needs? You say what you like so I say what I like, the difference is I'm right.

Super, make London a place people want to go to and live in.

I think it is high time, we began to push Boris Johnson as the next and best alternative for the Office of the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom!!!

shame on you Boris, I thought you had more spine than to give in to the Chelsea tractor lobby. More cars in central London is not the answer to anything. And the residents of Kensington and Chelsea will still vote Tory even if you don't remove the zone.
Where is the green gene you inherited from Stanley?

WELL DONE

Removing Western Extension will be good for congestion, concessions to those in that zone are so great, that more drive to work, and it makes congestion in the main zone far worse.

my comment about me thinking it was Boris J wondering around the white house drunk, looking for pizza - as per Clintons memoirs, have been deleted!! How dare they sensor in such a victorian way!

The more the valid criticism of his hypocrisy is censored the more I'll start highlighting it.
Boris supports Skyride, a London bicycling event then removes the Western congestion charge. HYPOCRISY, HYPOCRISY, HYPOCRISY, HYPOCRISY!
He just wants your votes and doesn't care about London.

Thank god, I need to use mycar cos i can't get around now, shouldn't have to pay for commie livingstones mistakes the tosser.

Oh, and not everyone in Kensington and Chelsea has large 4x4 and a massive house, I live in the poorer north of the borough and welcome the abolition of the congestion charge as it expensive all round to families and single people on lower wages who need money for everyday living expenses and not to line labours bottomless pockets. people who do not live in the zone really should not get involved with this debate and should have nothing to moan about, think yourselves lucky.

I am sure you will be better at honouring your promises than Mr Gordon "I am A Lame Duck" Brown

PRESS RELEASE embargoed until noon Thursday 8 October 2009
“Now is the Time for Change” say Senior Conservatives,
as they switch to the English Democrats!... Read more
Peterborough City Council Conservative Councillors Stephen Goldspink and Graham Murphy today announced that they are leaving the Conservative party and joining the English Democrats with immediate effect.
Robin Tilbrook, Chairman of the English Democrats, in welcoming Stephen and Graham to the English Democrats said, “I am delighted that these two Councillors have decided to join us. I urge all other disaffected Conservatives to take David Cameron at his word, because the English Democrats offer real change. I expect other Councillors across the country to join us soon.”... See More
Councillor Goldspink, former deputy leader of the Council and Member for East ward and Councillor Murphy, who represents Orton Longueville ward and has held several cabinet posts, said that the Conservative Party appeared to have abandoned England as a country and that locally, the new Conservative administration had shown that it was ready to spend money on bureaucracy and clamp down on any dissent, even where it was justified as a legitimate scrutiny function.
Graham said, “I believe in democracy, not a one party state for Peterborough, and the English Democrats offer a real alternative for this city and the country as a whole. Their recent electoral successes are testament to this and they are the fastest growing political party in the country. They are clear that those with power to affect our way of life must be answerable to the people – and that means locally as well as nationally.”
Stephen added, “I believe in Councillors properly and fairly representing their constituents and their views, so it has angered me to see huge additional costs being loaded on the people of Peterborough since May this year, against their will, with additional money being paid to some Councillors without any proper justification, and new posts and offices being created to support senior Councillors. Many people see these payments, which amount to almost a quarter of a million pounds, as some sort of payback for supporting the new leader in the local Conservative Group annual elections. Whatever the truth, it is clear that they have no place in a Council that has previously prided itself in maintaining lean administrative structures. I do not believe any of these changes will improve local democracy.”
Graham said, “I think that a Council should be run democratically and openly and so I was deeply disappointed that no Councillors from the Peterborough Constituency were selected for Cabinet posts in May 2009 and that all those chosen were from the North West Cambridgeshire constituency – which is where the new Council leader is from. This has effectively excluded the wards in Peterborough from getting proper representation in the body that controls all the funding for local schemes. I was attracted to join the English Democrats because I believe that they would never allow personal issues or petty infighting to get in the way of fair representation.”
Councillors Goldspink and Murphy will now form a new “English Democrats” Group on Peterborough City Council, with Councillor Goldspink as Group Leader and Councillor Murphy as Group Secretary.
They will seek to promote a number of issues that are important for the recognition of England and the English over the coming months, including: England to be treated as a unified country as befits a “proud and historic nation”, rather than bogus and meaningless “Regions”, a Parliament, First Minister and Government for England with at least the same power as the Scottish ones, the abandonment of the Barnett Formula which institutionalises discrimination against the people of England by ensuring that public spending in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland is higher per head of population than in England (the House of Lords has recently reported that this is costing the English taxpayer £49 billion per annum – that’s £2,500 per taxpayer!), the withdrawal of funding and closure of all political correctness quangos, which provide no value for taxpayers, and an immediate referendum on this country’s relationship with the European Union, with a view to withdrawal.
Graham said, “Our country is crying out for change from the tweedledee and tweedledum parties that have dominated politics in this country since the war. They have all shown that, if given power, they know how to abuse it, with the Parliamentary expenses scandal at a national level and the recent extra monies awarded to Councillors by themselves at a local level being prime examples of this.
“Does anyone really believe in their heart of hearts that David Cameron’s Conservatives will prove any better than John Major’s sleazy government or Gordon Brown’s opportunist public fund raiders? Does anyone believe that the closer ties with Europe that will come if the Liberal Democrats achieve any influence in the next Parliament, will benefit England? The English Democrats offer a unique opportunity to abandon the “left-right” see-saw and aim for pride in England, through real democracy.”
Stephen concluded, “I am convinced that other local Peterborough Councillors will join us in the next few months as they start to understand the true nature of the administration that now governs Peterborough. I believe that the interests of some businesses will be promoted above those of residents, who can expect to be asked to open their wallets and purses to cough up at least an extra 4% Council tax next year to fund the burgeoning bureaucracy that is being created. Also, they will look at how the Mayor of Doncaster, an English Democrat, is making real changes in his area and will want to be part of this fresh start. Let’s put England and Peterborough first, by voting for real change through the English Democrats!”

Councillor Stephen Goldspink can be contacted on 01733-340066 or 07846-544230.
