Boris is simply just another toff, who cant be bothered to research the facts and absolutely doesn't give a damn as long as his own bank account isn't affected, pretty much on a par with his Eton classmates, pity they hadn't had an expedition to Svalbard for the clowns running our country presently, could be riots wouldn't be the only way to make a point then

Yep, this guy is doing a "Darryl Gates" former LAPD Chief at the start of the "Rodney King Riots" after the Acquittal of the four LAPD Officers Filmed Beating Him.

Boris Johnson, YOU need to GET back to London NOW! Managing this mess in Person is what YOU were Elected to do!

"Lassafaire Management "will only end up in More Harm to the Citizens, Emergency Service Workers and London Itself!

He wasn't elected to "do" anything, this media loved, plant pot thrower, was only put up by the Tory's to keep the working Major out.

YESSIR!! London's mayor is TOTALLY focused on this situation. I mean how are you going to properly address it and correct the existing deficiencies that are at the root of it......If you aren't even familiar with the DETAILS???
Face it London, your mayor's grasp of the situation is equalled by his understanding of all the components. He really doesn't seem to be very engaged and his actions at this point can only serve to cause FURTHER chaos.
