These politicians just want to sound tough, and pander to whatever base they believe they have. It's easy and popular the criticize the UN, but saying they should be kicked out of the City is ridiculous. If we go down that route, there's a whole list of companies waiting to be shown the door. That's not the kind of message the City should be sending anyway, which is why Bloomberg is doing everything he can to counter it.
