I would have liked Steve Norris as Mayor too. Judging by interviews he gave, he had a good idea of what was wrong at City Hall and he understood that the essential pre-condition to reduce congestion in London was to keep traffic moving.
Norris's problems in being accepted by Londoners was that he was associated with both Margaret Thatcher's government and with Jarvis and that his seemingly energetic love life did not win him widespread admiration.
