From the FT:
Is Livingstone then just a bad loser, and the trips to City Hall a mark of an inability to let go? [John] Ross argues that the visits are simply a public attempt to hold his successor to account. "Ken believes that the events as they unfold will show that he was right and Johnson was wrong and therefore people will change their minds." If Livingstone does indeed stand in 2012, he suspects his Tory rival is unlikely to be Johnson. Johnson's ambition to be party leader means he might not stand again if the Tories lose the next general election.
This seems possible, but Cameron could well win and the more Boris schmoozes the London public - tonight's PQT on Heathrow will be just one of the more visible examples - the more he looks like he's already running for 2012. He might unravel before then but Livingstone, or whoever runs for Labour, will still need fresh ideas. Will we start hearing any on Saturday?
