Move Fast!

My wife Sheila and one of our daughters just came back from the Chinese takeaway. On the way and while waiting for their order, Sheila asked everyone she met if they'd voted yet.

An elderly Muslim man said he had voted: "I voted for Ken." All his family had voted for Ken too.

In the takeaway a Ghanaian man said he had voted: "I voted for Ken. I always vote for Ken."

Sheila asked him if he knew Boris might win.

"Not round here, he won't win. Labour could put a donkey up round here and it would win. How else do you think Diane Abbott keeps getting in?"

A young black man with his hood up overhead this: "I voted for Ken," he said. "You've got to vote for Ken."

The polling stations close in fifteen minutes. If you haven't voted yet, move fast. Vote for Ken.

That's rather cruel to Diane Abbott, surely?

Although she can't have won many hearts and minds by pulling her child(ren) out of Hackney's schools and packing them off to a private one.

I still support her though and I'd like to see her as Culture Secretary rather than that arch-Blairite Burnham.

Good news for Hackney anyway; but how high will Labour, actually no, not Labour. How high will Ken's support be in the suburbs and areas where the vote could swing towards Boris?
