You Boris campaigners just can't get your head around the fact that a lie coming from your campaign is still a lie. It's not only alleged lies from the other side that can be characterised as 'dirty tricks'. Show me the figures and statistics that prove your assertion that crime has gone up and I might come around to your view. Until you do that - which will be very difficult when the figures and statistics show the opposte - I will continue to characterise your campaign as pumping out lies to scare vulnerable Londoners into voting for someone who will do nothing to help them. Oh, and I <em>am</em> a real person, whereas you are a Boris campaign representative who has been plaguing anti-Boris blog posts from all over the internet with ridiculous comments.

If you think people aren't getting killed, robbeb and raped on London streets - you are mad!
