Boris! Shut it.

[Annette Curtain]

Coe! Shut it.

[El Pibe]

Gervais! Shut it.

[StraferJack]

Caveat: I think AC and EP already know this, but...

I think young Moos is referring to City 17-style public space pronouncements from Boris, rather than people she doesn't like...

[Jeremy]

"Hi folks! This is the Mayor here."

Shut up!!

[Otta]

Very very annoying!

[Wilhelm]

Could be worse. Imagine if Ken had got back in.

[Loz]

I'd swap letting Boris do the announcement in favour of a complete ban on the phrase 'this train is non-stopping at [station]'. That annoys me every time I hear it.

[Michael Palaeologus]

Even on the feckin' buses ....

[Jessie]

would rather hear ken over boris any day of the week

[Ladygooner]

Took the 176 from TCR last night - must have heard his message 10 times! Smacks of Big Brother announcements!

[jamesb]

Brilliant! It's the juxta-irony I love - the London Mayor, seen by many as a loveable buffoon, being a representative for the host city of the greatest sporting event on the planet. It made me smile :) HURRAH!

(Granted, I did then pop my headphones back in and returned to my musical world...).

Really? Political affiliations aside, Ken has a *really* annoying nasal whine.

[Milan05]

Ken voices the scarecrow -type creature in Bob the Builder.

[Ridgley]

Heard him this morning as my train was delayed to Sutton.

That's what did it for me. First at the station, now on the bus... half expecting him to pop up over the garden fence grinning his goofy grin.

Although, very good call on Gervais, El Pibe. In fact, to misquote someone or other: you there, Gervais: Fuck off. And when you get there, fuck off from there too. Then fuck off some more. Keep fucking off until you get back here again. Then fuck off again.

[Otta]

LOL!!!

[Alan Medic]

Gervais/David Beckham, are the one and the same?

[giggirl]

FUCK RIGHT OFF I DIDN'T EVEN VOTE FOR YOU

[titch juicy]

email him to let him know that he's making us all feel nauseous

mayor@london.gov.uk

[Jessie]

I just loathe boris, would rather hear anyone's voice but his

[ianr]

Is there anywhere we can hear a recording of any of these messages without resorting to public transport? I feel a sort of duty to share in the suffering.

[Ridgley]

David Beckham fed up of him, he does not live here anymore and I am sure he does not pay any taxes here either so sod off!!

[StraferJack]

Ridgely, if what you say is true, hasn't he already... y'know... sodded off?

[Ridgley]

No I think he still hanging around he has a part at the open ceremony, then he can take his miserable trout pout wife with him back to America.
