This just in. Boris Johnson now officially declared new Mayor of London

The London Assembly website is carrying the following somewhat curt statement:

"Boris Johnson has been elected as Mayor of London. He won after second preference votes were taken into account, with a total of 1,168,738 votes. A majority of more than 139,000 votes over Ken Livingstone."

The website is still (01.00 BST) carrying the biography of Ken Livingstone as mayor of London.

UPDATE: 2.30am. Proof that not only are the That's News team hard at work at this very late hour, staff at the London Assembly are also hard at work. Boris Johnson's biography as Mayor of London is now on the London Assembly website. Please click the link below:-
