So Johnson (and Cameron, who is no.2 in that pic) are posh and went to a decent university and joined a dressing up and dining club. Big deal. Why does this debar them from being elected? And why does it not debar an avowed communist like Livingstone? A man who seized control of the GLC in a coup from the democratically elected candidate and then ran London as his own personal fiefdom thereafter until its abolition?
