Yes, very unlike him to write something that bad.

I would guess he might have misunderstanding the politics - you can get an exaggerated sense of how much difference a Conservative rather than Labour government makes from the media. Maybe also taking a short term view - the prime minister changed the following year, and Labour won last year's election.

The odd thing is that he became a British citizen when the UK had a Conservative government and lived in London for another five years before deciding to move.

I even agree with some of his criticisms of London and how it has developed, but a lot of his reasoning just does not make sense to me
