He is, you know
Regular Londonistas may recall our coverage of the wit and wisdom of “Sarah, London”, the Mayor's Number One Fan and official Best Friend FOREVAH!

This week, she's at it again, offering her thoughts on the plight of Soho businesses losing their premises to Crossrail. This wave of destruction, she said, was all “thanks to Ken Livingstone's support for this monstrous railway.” His legacy “continues to ruin lives long after he has gone.”

Now wait a minute, someone asked. Wasn't it only recently that Sarah was praising Crossrail to the heavens as a Johnson success story?

Her response is so masterful it’s worth quoting in full:

"I have supported Boris in promoting Crossrail because whatever decisions Boris takes on supporting or denouncing projects proposed by our previous mayor is the correct one. Ken supporting Crossrail was a mistake, because he was Ken, and Ken was a complete disaster. It's a simple concept that I presume you are unable to grasp because you are not a fan of Boris."

A confession of trolling? An incompetent Mayoral PR? Or evidence of a mind that's simply too highly trained for us mere mortals to comprehend? You decide.
