The Young Conservative has a cracking story today about how one of George 'the cat' 'Hussein' Galloway submitted an expense claim on a Back Boris receipt, as distributed by Conservative Future activists during the London Mayoral campaign.

Boris outlines in this Telegraph article what exactly the United Kingdom needs.

In spite of - or maybe because of - his "ursine physique, mop of tousled blond hair and complicated private life", Boris has made it into the Time 100 list of the most influential people on Earth!

At KeepRightOnline, we don't know how seriously we can take a list of the world's twenty-most influential 'leaders and revolutionaries' that includes Gordon Brown, but not David Cameron; Ted Kennedy, but not Ron Paul; and Chicago's police chief, but not a single member of Chicago's hometown heroes Fall Out Boy.

Nonetheless, Boris being the only mayor in the list does raise a smile. Sounds about right.

Sound!
