Boris on the streets

Something you don't need in the aftermath of a riot are the pointless rambling platitiudes of Boris Johnson - but that's all he had to offer and the London public reacted accordingly.

- or you can watch the Guardian version


Update: It could have been worse,  Sky News reports that Nick Clegg was booed off the the streets in Birmingham. They state that crowds shouted "go home" during his attempted.walkabout. He was then quickly ushered into a waiting car by police and security staff. As it drove off, some of the crowd heckled "go on, run, run, run".

I think he came on as a comedy turn - a bit like Tommy Trinder during WW2. He was there to entertain rather than enlighten or lead. It is what he's good at, after all.
