Hardly a surprise that this council, which tried to legislate against gay marriage when it was introduced, calling it "immoral", would come out for Boris, but isn’t it rather dodgy that they should do so for 45-50 minutes of official full council meeting time?

As far as I’m aware councils don’t usually ’support’ election candidates in any way, although obviously local councillors will be involved in campaigning, in their own time, for their party’s candidate(s). Debating and passing a motion in favour of electing Boris as mayor seems dodgy at best, and certainly wasteful. Imagine the fuss Boris and his media cronies would be kicking up now if a Labour or Lib Dem council had taken similar steps in support of Ken or Brian!
