RIGHT SAID FRED SINGER RUNS FOR LONDON GOVERNMENT

RIGHT SAID FRED frontman RICHARD FAIRBRASS is planning to run for London Mayor at the next elections. The I'm Too Sexy singer's manifesto includes higher congestion charges for drivers who live outside London, but contribute to the traffic within the British capital. Fairbrass is impressed with the work current London Mayor Ken Livingstone has done, but believes there is more potential for change. He says, "London has turned into a rich man's playground. I have been living here since 1982 and London has definitely improved. "But I think Ken has been in the hotseat too long - it's time for a change. "I want to stand as an independent candidate with a manifesto for the real working people of London. They make it the brilliant city it is. It's not just about the super-rich. "The congestion charge (for vehicles) needs a total overhaul - real Londoners should get a massive discount. Women driving their Chelsea tractors (Range Rovers) in from Surrey should have to pay a premium."
