Cake challenge video

Here it is! The hotly-anticipated lo-fi film of the Time Out Cake Challenge which brought chaos to Oxford Street and gave a huge boost to the Hodge’s campaign. We raised some money, made some new friends and most importantly spread our message to the people who really matter - ordinary Londoners. Watch the footage of us doing what we do best - saving the city from politicians and handing out free cake.

Cake challenge results

The Time Out Mayor of London cake challenge took to the streets of the capital today and a large crowd gathered at Oxford Circus as we offered them the opportunity to vote with their mouths.

The choices of cake flavour were as follows: Brian Paddick Orange sponge, Ken Livingstone nut cake, Boris Johnson toffee cake and me, Michael Hodges, your Time Out candidate for Mayor of London, chocolate cake. And would you believe it, the overwhelmingly favourite flavour amongst Londoners was the chocolate cake.

Proof then that there is a groundswell behind our campaign and London is ready for change. We also signed up new supporters and filled several buckets with loose change. Consequently our Blue Peter-style donation thermometer is edging up towards the magic £10,000 mark that will put our campaign on the official voting register in May (which is why every pound pledged matters). Thanks to all that came and remember you, the people of London, are writing our manifesto.
