So, Boris’ short jaunt to New York is over and it appears to have been an unqualified success…if his Tweets were anything to go by. There’s been much Twit [ahem – Boriswatch Ed] action over the last few days as Boris has sped around the American metropolis in the company of Mayor Bloomberg.
The Mayor took time out during his trip to meet the Broadway cast of the hit show Billy Elliot, the multi Tony award winning show as well as addressing a packed lecture hall at Columbia University.
Boris seems to have made a bit of a splash in NY, wowing businesspeople, investors and the public alike whilst promoting London as a tourist and business destination. From his travel blog I particularly like his description of a party thrown by Mayor Bloomberg at his private home where Bozza “…shouldn’t really say who was there but can’t resist mentioning the adorable Emma Thompson.” Namedrop, darling.
Boriswatch signs off with a passing comment on this photo of BoJo on the Piccadilly Line this morning on his way home from the airport. That’s quite some hangover jetlag, he has there….
