He's also the Brit with the largest-ever personal mandate:

1.3m votes (including second preference) from a City of 8.5m people only
5.5m have registered to vote is not that big of an endorsement.

But as an out-of-London person, I'll be doing my best to keep him to his
very clear promise not to increase TfL fares for the next four years.

Not a big bus user currently, but his promise of transferable fares for
an hour is also something which might well make me use them more.
