Election Diary
15 April 2008
Peter Facey
THE director of Unlock Democracy has launched www.votematch.co.uk - a project to boost voter turn-out. The website poses 25 questions on a range of London issues and asks voters to agree or disagree. Based on their responses, the site works out who they should be voting for. Mr Facey said: "The polling evidence suggests the election could be extremely close. Every vote cast could make a difference." About 15,000 people have already had a go.
CAMPAIGN CAPERS
ANOTHER novel way of working out who to vote for. Gourmet Burger Kitchen has launched a new range named after the four main mayoral candidates at its Tower Place restaurant. The Ken Burger is described as "hot, fiery and a bit of a mouthful", the Boris Burger is "a bit cheesy with hidden depths, quite possibly a bit messy", the Paddick (Chicken) Burger is "golden, plucky, with a hint of spice" while the Berry (Veggie) Burger is "good for you, with a bit of bite." Gives a new meaning to the term gut instinct.
