16 October (Part 3) - Is it a trap?
I have never been impressed by Shaun Bailey, the Conservative candidate for the sometime never
London Mayoral election, except for the obvious; he is not Sadiq Khan.
All I have to go on is that a friend in North London says she is friends with
his wife, or maybe it was her mother who is friends with his wife; I didn’t
take much notice, but I do remember that she said that Shaun was a good bloke.
I still didn’t think he was up to much but this morning at 8:15 he was on fire
during his TalkRadio interview. I was impressed but will want to hear assurances
that it was not a flash in the pan.
An hour later
he poked his leaflet through my letterbox and
below is a small extract which may link with
what was said here earlier today.
Could it be true that Sadiq Khan is being set up for a fall? He is forced by
Government to extend the Congestion Charge and Shaun gets
in on a promise to do away with it? A bit of a risk. London will be well and truly stuffed by an
extended Congestion Charge. The proposed Blackwall Tunnel tolls will take a bit of a knock.
Such a plan would require voters to be suckers but the last few months have proved the general public to be hugely gullible.
