Is he a good administrator with clear ideas of what he wants to do ?   Hoddy     Report

Just trying to help! tegwini No your not your just being sarcastic which is plain for anyone to see. If you have nothing to add to this thread which is 'on topic' then it's better you don't post. Personally I won't bother to answer anymore of your rude and sarcastic comments because we will only drift further off topic. I'm sure you will have the last word though . http://www.chambresdhote.com    Report

A very good start I think appointing  Ray Lewis, a much respected man in his field although I think it's slightly naive to think he will sort out all the youth problems. I am sure he will have some impact and will be good for London in general. I think it will take at least 6 months before anything startling happens as new people come in and get up to speed. Then I guess it will be a further 6 months before any serious changes start to happen. I rather hope Borris is successful if only to put his critics in their place. We will see. http://www.chambresdhote.com    Report

Why not post a sensible answer, people will appreciate it more    Report
