Tory Troll blogger Adam Bienkov reports:

Boris Johnson today denied that he will reduce the number of police officers in London, despite proposing to do just that last week.

The Mayor’s budget consultation unequivocally states that:

Over the three years to 2012-13, the number of Police Officers is forecast to decrease by 455, while PCSOs remain the same and Special Constables increase by 2,690.

Yet when Liberal Democrat Assembly Member Dee Doocey, put this to him today he told her that she was “completely wrong.”

The London and national press has yet to pick up on the story – perhaps unwilling to believe a Mayor who promised to increase the number of police officers would do the exact opposite.

Adam ends by saying:

When Gordon Brown suggested that Boris would cut the police budget and police numbers, Boris accused him of misleading the house.

In reality Boris has now done both.

Sounds like the flip-flopping Mayor is carrying on as normal.
