Hear Hodges at On The Up

Tonight our campaign gets significantly louder as I have to shout to be heard above three sensational bands at Time Out’s On the Up gig at Bar Academy (16 Parkfield St, N1 Centre. Nearest tube Angel). Time Out campaign staff will be there to take any donations you are able to make and any ideas you have for our ‘peoples’ manifesto. I’ll be the tall bloke on stage at 8.30 going ‘vote for me’.

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.
