London’s favourite (er, only) Mayor has selflessly put himself forward to prove how ‘safe’ water cannons are, after sanctioning the purchase of three. On LBC Radio this morning the blonde bombshell agreed to be fired at by one of the devices, saying: "Man or mouse. You've challenged me, so I suppose I'm going to have to do it now. I can see all my press people pulling their hair out over this, but never mind, it's got to be done”

In light of this brave act, Bo-Jo, here are some other not-so-popular pastimes that we feel you alone can help rebrand. Have a blast.
