He's that rare politician, one who doesn't break all his promises when
he gets elected!

OTOH carrying on with a policy regardless of all the evidence for it being a
bad idea and with cost cutting going on already in public transport which
really didn't need the cost of a new fleet of buses imposed on top smacks
of bloody mindedness at best. It seems Boris isn't a big enough man to admit
when he's wrong, so I suppose in that sense he's not at all rare in political
circles.
It seems Boris is a big enough man to carry out one of the major
headline grabbing manifesto commitments that got him elected by the
majority of the voting electorate. If you don't like that, remember
you're in the minority.
