Boris on Getting Ahead

I have also brooded on the results of some study in Australia, which showed that making bike helmets compulsory deterred so many people from cycling that there was a rise in obesity — and more people ended up dying of heart attacks than were saved by the head-gear.

Heh. More from/about Boris and his “bonce-protector” (or lack thereof, to be more precise) writing in this morning’s Telegraph.

Irrespective of his politics, I truly like this character. We need more public figures like this.
