yeh well why DID you elect him anyway ?(is cheam in london now ? ) paddick was obviously the best candidate but if you are going to elect a lord mayor based on perceived tv popularity rather than actual fitness for the job then expect a lot of half formulated, knee jerk reactive policies.

If you cannot smoke on public transport why should you be allowed to consume alcohol

Pete, Barry, Wales

I live in Canada at the moment, where drinking alcohol in public is banned. It's illogical because anything that it's okay to do indoors should also be okay to do outdoors, it criminalises picnicers drinking a bottle of bubbly, and anyway people generally get drunk in bars and at home.
