..... with a water cannon?
I'm first in the queue as Boris Johnson agrees to be shot with the controversial crowd 'dispersing' device.
Do you agree with his decision to purchase them without official governmental backing?
Are they a necessary deterrent?

The mayor's office said: "By purchasing them now we are able to save over £2.3m compared to buying new devices."
The water cannon will not be deployed until the home secretary authorises their use in England and Wales.
In a statement, the mayor's office said
purchasing the cannon now for just over £218,000, before Theresa May approves them, meant they could be bought at a "considerably reduced rate"
Why is this, how are they cheaper before they're approved.. is it because they will be useless if she doesn't approve and he's wasted over £200k, has he forced her arm by purchasing them or did he know she intends to do so in time?
