I'm receiving correspondence from the disbelieving colonies about the Boris cock-up.
Actually, the result of the London election is all about our closest colonial rivals The Australians, and their vindictive revenge upon us in the form of Lynton Crosby.
Having placed the Australian right wing in parliament in his home country, he took the Imperial Shilling to come fuck over the pommies by acting as Boris' puppet master's familiar and proving that, with the right degree of cynicism and low cunning, exploiting people's basest prejudices, you can actually get even the village idiot elected.
Crosby is the master of "dog whistle" canvassing; that is, getting your (xenophobic) message across to those inclined, without drawing the attention of decent society.
For further details, check out the earlier profile from The Guardian. I bet John McCain already has.
