LEYTON: MP in Boris "fag" jibe
New mayor: Boris Johnson
New mayor: Boris Johnson

Harry Cohen has likened new London Mayor Boris Johnson to a "fag" at a public school.

The Leyton MP said: "In parliament I keep seeing Boris with David Cameron, the former slouched, the latter upright.

"They look like fag and head-boy at a public school.

"Fag in the old sense of doing the prefect's bidding.

"The new Mayor has to be more independent than a fag if he is to deal with London's problems properly."

Mr Cohen did however congratulate Mr Johnson on his victory and added that he wished him well in the job.
