Boris Johnson: ex-shedworker


Perhaps we were wrong about the 'colourful' Mayor of London Boris 'homeworking is a euphemism for sloth' Johnson since it appears he has been a shedworker (or at least a shedowner) for some time. Well, a fortnight. As reported in The Guardian, Johnson was told by his local council to remove the wooden shed he had put up on the first floor balcony of his Islington residence - a Grade II listed building no less - on the grounds that it did not have planning permission, was entirely out of keeping with local architecture, and had been the focus of several complaints from his neighbours.

  1. Good old Boris! - does any one know who supplied the shed?
