Lord Dyson criticised the way in which Johnson and TFL reached their decision he also ruled that they were justified in making the ban because the comments were offensive, but that there would need to be a judicial investigation into whether Mr Johnson had acted for 'an improper purpose'
So whats not to like? Core Issues does not overturn the ban and Boris did not follow due process. Colin
