To be fair we should probably acknowledge that the lack of a candidate handicaps the Libdem performance in polls at the moment. On the other hand I do hope the Libdems get  blown apart in this election.

YouGov had Boris 4 points ahead yesterday. I suppose it's fair to say that Boris is all but certain to win (about as certain as a Hollande victory in France is right now), but that the final numbers will be closer to YouGov's than to Populus. I have a hard time seeing how Ken could blood enough votes on a 6-13 point national Labour lead to lose London by double digits. Just my impressions.

The boxes are now all counted.  All 14 GLA constituencies declared, Mayoral result shortly (for some value of shortly).

Just how difficult could a Lab-Grn majority in the GLA hypothetically make Boris' life? I understand it takes a 2/3rds majority (!) to block a mayor's budget?
