Updated: this plays fine for me, but it's weird and speeded up for [livejournal.com profile] spikeylady - does it work for you?
Updated: have re-uploaded after deleting old one.

Much, much to fast, but very amusing. How odd.

I'm afraid you've just convinced me that Boris will win. If this is the best news that Stop-Boris people have had recently, the news is going to get much worse on 1 May.

(BTW, don't suppose you know what Brian Paddick's got against pedicabs do you? It seems a surreal thing for a LibDem to take against.)

I think [livejournal.com profile] ciphergoth and I both came away from this thinking Ken was excellent, as well as that Boris was awful.

I'm sure you did - but my guess is that you both went in to it already thinking along those lines. If you go in to it thinking that Boris is Ok, I think it'll have seemed a lot more like Boris is perfectly reasonable and Paxo was just being his usual self.

I don't think Paxo handled it terribly well.

The point is that Boris's plan to rebuild Routemasters to conform to the DDA is unworkable, 'cos the buses just aren't the right size or shape. Asking him how much it'll cost is a roundabout way of pointing that out, but just endlessly repeating the question... is getting a bit old. And doesn't get the essential point across.

I do like Ken. But I also value someone who is so well versed on their policies that they can debate impressively about them under serious fire, and Ken was the only one who managed that last night, I felt.

I agree on that one. I think he's possibly going for the black cab vote, but I'm honestly not sure where it came from.

Are there that many cabbies then? Surely only a few tens of thousands, tops. Oh! *penny drops* If you win the cabbies round to your campaign, it's not impossible that the odd one or two might choose to share that belief with an occasional passenger. A few tens of thousands of extra canvassers is an entirely different prospect!

Another vote for too fast in comedy style.

Fixed now I think!

Fine here (Opera 9.50B, Ubuntu Feisty, fairly recent libflashplayer).

Paxo and Boris should get their own show :)

Y'know, I almosty felt sorry for Boris...actually no, I didn't!

I watched this when it was on, and my conclusions were:

I would actively vote against the liberal candidate for playing the "terror" card. We lived with the IRA for however long, we know how to deal.

Boris Johnson is entertaining, but not exactly a professional.

Thus Mr Livingstone will get my vote. However much time he spends with his foot in his mouth, he appears to be at least honest, professional and capable.

I'm rather afraid Boris will win on the sympathy vote, a large part of which got Ken in last time. Shame.

He should just bloody well say that he has no clue how much it costs!
