On the way:
He's been booted out of the box on the bus, Boris Johnson. His mission to ensure his electorate and his Olympic visitors are fully informed, scuppered.

Presumably, flushed by the success of his 'Boris bike' cycling initiative, he was trying out a new form of public transport, perhaps for crossing the river.
The Shard to City line, anyone? There's got to be a better reason for stabbing London in the aesthetic eye with that stack of plexiglass spikes other than that its really really tall.
Plus, imagine the kerfuffle if the mayor got stuck on a wire 150 metres above the Thames.
