From the scenario designer: “Three Main Parties, Three Big Characters, One Big City, One Big Race. Can Ken hang on to the GLA for four more years? Has Boris got what it takes to run the big city? Can Paddick pound the streets, all the way to city hall? Amidst economic woes, and a less than popular government, can Ken hold on to the Mayoralty, or is London destined for Conservative government?”
