A view from over there
Looking at a situation from another perspective can be a good thing. A trip to Brussels has done something to improve my mood about the political situation in the UK. It would seem that, of the relatively few people who have noticed the change of mayor of London, most are reacting in the same way that many people reacted to Bush’s 2004 election:
“How? Why?”
Answers on a postcard to the usual address.
More seriously, I think Mayor Johnson might have a little work to do on his image beyond these shores if he wants to be a world city leader; not a huge amount, but something that describes his ‘vision’ for London. Beyond that, the reaction was, I found, surprise that people here are worrying so much about second-order elections perhaps two years from a general election.
