Yes - you are right, BonnieDundee: I do not like the europhile Liberal 'Democrats' (something which has been very obvious to those who have been members of the forum for some time) and notice that the Liberal 'Democrat' candidate only got 9% of the first preference vote in the London Mayoral Election of 1.5.2008. Which, of course, means that 91% of those who voted in the first round did not want the Liberal Democrat' candidate.

In fact, taking into account the number that did not vote at all (in the London Mayoral Election this month) - the actual number of all those entitled to vote who had the Liberal 'Democrat' candidate as their first choice and who voted for him in the first round of voting was less than 5% of all electors here in the capital.

In other words - 19 out of every 20 people here in London entitled to vote in this month's Mayoral elections did not vote for the Liberal 'Democrat' candidate in the first round.
