The London economy continues to show very interesting signs of what can only be described as credit crunch denial in certain important sectors. And it is worth stressing this and getting this across, particularly in view of the newspapers which are providing an unremitting diet of gloom.
Some parts of our economy really are thriving and I single out obviously the theatres, the tourism sector, but across the board there are amazing pockets of resistance to the problem.

Looks like Boris has been taking lessons from Ken Livingstone about how to be several paces out of step with his own party.
However it is encouraging, even from this unlikely source, to hear some positive messages about the economy. Governor of the Bank of England - take note.
