Ken says 'on yer bike'
Massive investment in cycling in the capital announced by London Mayor Ken Livingstone.
If he did cycle to work, you can be certain that he wouldn't do it for a stunt...we all remember David Cameron claiming he was 'green' by cycling to Westminster - with his chaffeur driven limo following behind carrying his shoes!!!
In any case, Ken doesn't head for Westminster in the mornings - his office is City Hall at London Bridge...i'd be happy to forward a map if Boris doesn't know where it is...
which raises an interesting question: if Londoners were daft enough to elect the MP for Henley Mayor, where would he point his bike in the mornings...Westminster or City Hall..??
Does that mean that he's going to copy Boris and start cycling to Westminster in the morning?
ReplyDeleteKen uses public transport - usually the tube.
