As Boris Johnson runs away from the London-wide electorate that he, David Cameron and George Osborne have created, it would take the very stoniest of hearts not to fall about laughing.
The most open economy on earth, in classically 1980s terms, has created the most reliably left-wing of the great cities of the West.
Both in reaction against the sheer cost of everything, especially housing.
And because as open as an economy is, that open will be its society, culture and polity. If you take the whole world's money, then you have to take the whole world.
