Boris loves his chocolate!

For the Londoners who attended the London Mayor's question time today in City Hall, it was a relief to learn that the Mayor won't be without his daily chocolate fix for long.

So, why not...Just ignore the small print that reads: This product can cause mood swings, increased heart rate, headaches, dizziness and insomnia. Also very addictive.
