Question about the UK local elections this may

4. To be honest I cant see it having any effect

Even if the Westminster politicians were to call for Lib Dem voters to back Johnson there is no guarantee it would make much difference to voting intentions. I suspect the London Mayoral election is going to be far more about the personalities of the leading candidates than their respective parties although Johnson is in the weaker position on the latter score as he will take a hit because public sentiment is now clearly shifting against the government on issues such as the NHS and compulsory workfare.

Just for the record I can't stand either Johnson or Livingstone both of whom are individuals who put their self promotion above their parties. I am also not a fan of mayors running cities.
