On Saturday, we had a user poll (just for fun) which asked, if you could send only one person to North Korea, would you choose "the diplomat", or the "the military"?
We chose Jimmy Carter to represent the diplomat, because since his less than successful presidency, he has proven himself as one of the greatest humanitarians.
He has helped many times as the American diplomat sent to Korea in the past, negotiating with the North Korean government on four occasions since leaving office.
At 92 years old, it is however, extremely unlikely that he would again be called to perform such a duty. It is however great fun to see Jimmy winning our "election" here in London City, beating the military option of General Mad Dog Mattis.
So here is how you voted. Of 54 votes, 31 (57%) were for the diplomat "Jimmy" and 23 (43%) were for the military solution "Mad Dog Mattis".
You can draw your own conclusions as to which option is best. But at this time, we declare Jimmy Carter duly elected to sort out the worlds problems.
In Jimmy, we trust!
Eight years ago London City came to life on a small Mainland parcel which rapidly grew and moved to its own private island. Through September, we hope you will join us to relive some of our historic milestones and help celebrate our 8th Birthday.
