Irony Overload in London

The Conservatives plan to make a bold bid to secure the 'ironic' vote by announcing Boris Johnsons as a prospective candidate for next Mayor of London.

Speaking at a press conference, party leader David Cameron told the media: 'Aaah - you weren't expecting that, were you?'. Johnsons, meanwhile, stumbled around behind him making incoherent comments, until his trousers fell down.

It is expected that 20 something Londoners who look like students and have never read a newspaper will form his core support, with some crossover into 50 year olds who quite like Stephen Fry, but don't think he's right wing enough.
