Earlier today ConservativeHome was outside City Hall to see Chris Grayling MP launch the Conservative Party's Case Against Ken Livingstone. The Case represents a comprehensive demolition of Livingstone's record on transport, transparency, crime, housing and the environment. PDF here.
Alongside him were MPs Andrew Rosindell, Stephen Hammond and John Horam; GLA candidate James Cleverly; and council leaders Stephen Greenhalgh (our taxcutter of the year) and Ian Clement (Bexley).
Chris Grayling ended his brief presentation by reminding us of his favourite Ken Livingstone quotation (from 2003):
"I will save the Routemaster. Only some ghastly, dehumanised moron would want to get rid of the Routemaster."
On the way back from the launch ConHome's outside broadcasting unit (a
bicycle) spotted Boris' most enthusiastic backer in a Citreon 2CV
emblazoned with Back Boris stickers. The photos aren't great (it was a
busy road) but you get the idea...
4pm update: We've been sent a couple of proper photos of the 2CV. The owner is an activist from Wandsworth.
Andrew Rosindell?

John Wallace from Wandsworth Tooting CA is the prime suspect in the 2CV. At least people have heard of Boris - there were a lot of strange looks when the same car was decorated with hundreds of pictures of James Bethell in 2005.

Shirley Houghton, GLA candidate for Lambeth and Southwark was also in attendance (see top photo).
Good luck Shirley!
